Description

Join us for the 2009 season of the Iowa City Farmers Market! The first market will be held Saturday, May 2. The Famers Market season will continue until the end of October, with the last market on Saturday, October 31. During the season, markets will be held in the Chauncey Swan parking ramp every Wednesday from 5:30-7:30 p.m. and every Saturday from 7:30 a.m. until noon.

Eco Iowa City will be present at our Market on Saturday, May 2 and Wednesday, May 6. ECO Iowa City is a grant-funded initiative to improve environmental sustainability in Iowa City.

Master Gardeners of Johnson Council will also be present on May 2 to share their gardening knowledge with you.

Also starting this year is a new volunteer group, Friends of the Iowa City Farmers Market. This group will help promote the market, raise funds, provide volunteer assistance for market days and special events and develop new events and activities. Volunteers can participate in a single event, or can help out regularly throughout the season.
