About this event

Every Saturday morning from late April through late October, locals and visitors head to Highway 51 South in Hernando to shop the weekly farmers market. This is a genuine farmers market experience, meaning you'll find vendors selling directly from their farms and food businesses rather than resellers. The market runs early, opening at 8:00 AM and wrapping by 1:00 PM, which gives shoppers a full morning window to browse and pick up ingredients for the weekend. What you'll find at the Hernando Farmers Market reflects the agricultural character of DeSoto County and the broader Mississippi region. Produce vendors bring seasonal vegetables and fruits, while others specialize in baked goods fresh from their ovens, artisanal cheeses, farm-fresh eggs, and locally caught seafood. Beyond food, the market also features flower vendors and craft makers, so it's not purely produce-focused. This mix means the market appeals to home cooks looking for quality ingredients, people seeking locally made goods, and anyone wanting to support regional farms and small producers. The market's payment options are inclusive and practical for the community. You can pay with credit cards, and the market accepts SNAP and EBT benefits, making fresh food accessible to families using government nutrition assistance. It also accepts Senior FMNP vouchers, reflecting its commitment to serving older adults in the area. For vendors, this means a customer base that values fresh, local products and spans different income levels and backgrounds. The seasonal rhythm of this market is worth noting. Operating from April 23 through October 29, it captures the spring through fall growing season when farmers have the most abundant and diverse products to sell. This makes it an ideal venue for vendors with seasonal produce, baked goods, flowers, and handmade items that thrive during warmer months.
