Nothing says summer more than a farmers market.
With the weather warming up and fresh produce arriving from Ohio’s farms, there’s no better way to spend a Saturday than by supporting local vendors and trying regional treats. Columbus shows out on Saturdays—and even during the week—with markets across the city. Mark your calendars for these farmers markets this summer:
Worthington Outdoor Farmers Market
Experience Worthington
Saturdays, May–October
Old Worthington, High Street in Worthington
Worthington starts our list because it is the largest farmers market in Central Ohio. A community staple since 1987, the event won USA Today’s “Best Farmers Market” last year and is in the running again for 2025. The produce and local goods stand out against the historic brick buildings and streets of Old Worthington. Plus, this market is producers only, meaning you’ll only find consumable goods like food or body products. Check out Montezuma Sauces, which has been at the market since its inception.
Bexley Farmers Market
Thursdays, May 14–Oct. 22
Dawson Avenue
If you’re looking for some farmers market fun before the weekend, more than 30 vendors line Dawson Avenue in Bexley every Thursday. Celebrating its 15th season, the market also features live music—sometimes by the mayor himself. Enjoy the laid-back feel of Bexley and the summer season.
Canal Winchester Farmers Market
Canal Winchester Farmers Market
Saturdays, May 30–Sept. 26
Stradley Park
Marketed as “food with a conscience,” the Canal Winchester Farmers Market encourages customers to make healthy choices and support local growers. Keep the small-market feel alive by stocking up on all your produce each Saturday morning. The market also links to a calendar to help you determine when Ohio produce is in season, ensuring you get the freshest fruits and vegetables on your plate.
Clintonville Farmers Market
Saturdays, April 25–Nov. 21
North High Street
Each Saturday, North High Street is transformed into a community gathering for vendors and neighbors to enjoy the sunshine. On the vendor list this year are local farms like Bluebird Meadow and Elfrink Farms. Also, pick up a cookie while you shop from Three Bites Bakery or The Midnight Baker.
Visit Dublin, Ohio
Dublin Market
Saturdays, May 2–Sept. 26
Bridge Park
Each Saturday, Bridge Park is filled with more than 150 vendors. What makes this market unique is the hands-on entertainment that rotates throughout the season. Do yoga in the park or pet a furry friend at the Columbus Zoo petting zoo—there’s something for everyone.
Franklin Park Conservatory Farmers Market
Wednesdays, June 3–Sept. 16
Wells Barn parking lot
Right outside the Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, a farmers market is set up with local vendors and food trucks for a quick bite. They also offer a program for kids called “Veggie Champs,” which gives them a passport to sample different vegetables around the market.
German Village Makers Market
German Village Farmers Market
Saturdays, April 19-Dec. 9

Set in the scenic German Village, this farmers market brings you back to historic times when market shopping was part of daily life. Check out the market’s Facebook page for weekly vendor spotlights and to get excited for the season ahead.
