It's our 21st season! We are ready to showcase our areas finest farmers, bakers, makers & artisans to YOU! Depending on the month, we celebrate the bounty of our harvests. Our calendars are getting full with Blueberry Day, Kid's Market, Tomato Day, Corn Day & Fall Harvest Day! Stop by for a longstanding community market, we look forward to serving you.
Started in 2002 the Geauga Fresh Farmers' Market is producer-only farmers’ market operating year round in Geauga County. The market is board run, which includes community members & vendors. We strive to provide you with fresh, local and real products made or grown by people you can actually talk to.
The purpose of the Geauga Fresh Market is to provide local farmers with a means to sell their produce or value added products directly to consumers, and to afford consumers the opportunity to buy fresh, locally grown food. A market that allows farmers to sell directly to consumers will help to support a farm economy in Geauga County. Increasing the profitability of local farms will enable more farms to continue to operate rather than to be lost to development. By promoting the preservation of farmland in Geauga County, the rural character of the county will remain for all to enjoy.
By bringing the freshest Geauga County produce and locally made products to the consumer on a weekly basis the Market will encourage customers to value and understand the benefits of supporting our local agricultural economy. The market aims at educating consumers by reconnecting them with their food and where it comes from, by providing them with higher quality, more variety and a sense of seasonality.
