Food Truck at the Market

Find the Trading & Coffee food truck in front of US Bank on the east side of High Street between the Rock Dove and Gillogly Orchard booths!

Come Early for Eggs!

Farm fresh eggs are undoubtedly one of the most popular market products. Arriving early helps ensure you find them -- and especially as the weather cools and egg production slows. In order to consistently lay eggs, hens need about 16 hours of daylight and 8 hours of darkness when they're roosting. Once less than 12 hours of daylight is available, egg production decreases considerably.

Scoop Up All Your Fall Faves this Saturday!

We're back on High Street #inworthington from 8am-12pm. And, you'll find these awesome canvas totes available for purchase at the Market welcome booth (corner of High Street & E. New England Avenue). Proceeds from the purchase of these bags benefit the Worthington Farmers Market.

Need Cash? Buy Tokens!

Small, local producers working on thin margins sometimes forego credit cards to avoid the fees. If you don’t have cash, head to the Information Booth where you can buy $5 wood tokens with a credit or debit card. All the vendors take them, they give change back in cash, and the tokens never expire. There is a $1 dollar transaction fee, regardless the amount.

SNAP/EBT Customers: use your Ohio Direction or Ohio P-EBT card to earn FREE Produce Perks to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables and food-bearing plants!

Masks Are Optional

Effective Thursday, March 10, the Worthington city ordinance that required masks in indoor public places has been lifted. Facial coverings are now optional throughout the City of Worthington.

We will have a limited supply of masks available at the Market information desk (located at the corner of S. High Street & New England Avenue in front of the Graeter's Ice Cream and House Wine parking lot), should you wish to wear one while visiting the Market.

We will continue with our other proactive measures to help reduce the spread of illness including having hand sanitizer available throughout the Market and increased spacing between producer booths.

If you have a fever or are feeling ill, we ask that you please stay home.
