Farmers Market in Fort Wayne (2025)
Housed in an “h”-shaped building since 1926, this cozy Saturday tradition brings about 35 vendors into the hall from Easter through mid-December, selling fresh vegetables, baked goods, antiques, and handmade crafts; a kitchen added in the 1930s warmed by wood-burning stoves remains a popular gathering spot for coffee and a bite. I seek out local honey and hormone-free pork from multigenerational farms and enjoy the market’s old-time feel that looks much as it did when built.
Downtown’s producer-only market fills the streets Saturdays May–September with farms, bakers, and music. The History Center confirms dates and free museum admission during market hours; local outlets note its award-winning reputation.
Rebranded in August 2025, the market continues Saturdays 9 a.m.–1 p.m. at Electric Works’ Dynamo Alley under the Electric Works Public Market Trust. Expect regional farms, meats, baked goods, and makers.
A Wednesday market with a 75-mile vendor radius and grow-your-own ethos, run by Fort Wayne Parks. Operating June 4–September 3, 2025, it highlights sustainable growers, honey, baked goods, and family activities.
An urban farm stand in Renaissance Pointe run with Purdue Extension and the City of Fort Wayne. The farm’s 2025 calendar lists Friday market hours and hands-on classes; SNAP and WIC are typically welcome.
Part of Parkview Health and St. Joseph Community Health Foundation’s HEAL initiative, this Thursday market (July–August 2025) features local produce plus a nutrition incentive that doubles fruit and vegetable dollars.
Second-Saturday community market May–September with produce, baked goods, music, and food trucks. Listed by Visit Fort Wayne and regional event calendars, it draws a family crowd on the city’s northwest side.
A third-Wednesday evening market May–September with artisan vendors, music, and food trucks. While maker-forward, it offers a neighborhood market vibe and occasional farm and food producers.
