Come for the freshness -- Stay for the fun!

The Waterloo Farmers' Market in the Park will be back for it's second year this Thursday, May 19th! Every week we feature special events for our customers. Our grand opening day is called "Welcome Summer" - and the first 10 customers who come dressed in Hawaiian shirts and flip flops will receive a free Waterloo Farmers' Market canvas bag. Also, enter our weekly drawing of free produce and flowers from our very generous vendors!

The market will feature between 10 and 15 local vendors every week including honey, homemade salsa by The Salsa Guy, coffee drinks, maple syrup, baked goods, jewelry, crafts, brats, hot dogs, burgers, cheese, jellies, jams, and of course, locally grown fresh produce!

The Waterloo market is run completely by volunteers. Our goal is to get friends and neighbors together on a weekly basis, promote good health, encourage people to buy locally and stimulate our local economy.



The market takes place every Thursday afternoon from 3 to 7 p.m. at the Waterloo Firemen's Park. We have fun family-friendly events that include: cooking contests, zucchini races, petting zoos, cooking classes for kids, and silly scarecrow contests in the fall.

Come for the freshness -- Stay for the fun!
