About this event
Thursdays from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM, the Boone Farmers Market Association sets up at 7th and Story Street in downtown Boone, Iowa, bringing local producers and food vendors together from June through late October. This weekly farmers market captures the growing season in Boone County, making it a reliable destination for shoppers looking for fresh, locally-sourced ingredients and goods. Vendors at this farmers market typically offer a range of products that reflect what grows well in Iowa's climate. You'll find seasonal vegetables and produce, fresh-baked goods from local bakers, farm-fresh eggs, local honey, herbs both culinary and medicinal, and often handmade crafts from area artisans. The mix changes throughout the season as different crops come into harvest, so there's a natural rhythm to what's available week to week. This is the appeal of a weekly farmers market like this one: regulars develop relationships with vendors and learn when to expect certain items to appear. The Thursday afternoon timing works well for people wrapping up their workday or planning their weekend meals. Because the market runs through late October, it captures both the peak summer harvest and the transition into fall produce like squash, apples, and root vegetables. The location at 7th and Story Street in downtown Boone makes it accessible and visible to the community. If you're a vendor looking to reach Boone-area shoppers, this market accepts multiple payment methods including credit cards, SNAP/EBT benefits, WIC, WIC Cash, and Senior FMNP vouchers. That accessibility means you're reaching customers across different income levels and demographics, not just cash customers. For food and produce vendors especially, a weekly farmers market like the Boone Farmers Market Association offers consistent foot traffic and the chance to build a loyal customer base throughout the growing season.
