A Fresh Taste of the Wasatch: Farmers Markets You Won’t Want to Miss
Summer in the Wasatch is peak farmers market season and a chance to wander rows of fresh produce, meet local makers, and soak up the mountain sunshine. Whether you’re hunting for heirloom tomatoes, handcrafted cheese, or small-batch artisan goods, these markets are the heart of our local food and craft culture.
Salt Lake City Farmers Market
Held at Pioneer Park, the Salt Lake City Farmers Market is a weekend staple. From mid-June through October, it’s bustling with farmers, food trucks, music, and craftspeople from across Utah. The variety is unmatched…think just-picked peaches, artisanal breads, handmade jewelry, and more! It’s certainly worth the early morning crowd.
Wheeler Historic Farm Sunday Market
For a charming, family-friendly setting, the Wheeler Historic Farm Market delivers! Every Sunday from late May to mid-October, you’ll find fresh produce, pasture-raised meats, crafts, and a rotating lineup of food vendors. The historic barns and shady lawns make it as much a day out as a shopping trip.
Park Silly Sunday Market
Part street festival, part farmers market, the Park Silly Sunday Market transforms Park City’s Main Street into a lively hub of live music, art, gourmet food, and quirky finds. Running most Sundays June through September, it’s an ideal mix of mountain town energy and locally made treasures. Don’t miss the ‘build-your-own’ Bloody Mary bar!
Midway Farmers Market
Nestled in the Heber Valley, the Midway Farmers Market offers a relaxed, small-town vibe. Every Saturday morning from mid-June to early October, you’ll find fresh flowers, handcrafted goods, and seasonal produce, all against the stunning backdrop of the Wasatch back. Midway has grown in to a bustling and adorable town to visit with great restaurants, a charming bookstore, yummy bakeries, and the latest outpost of the popular Ballerina Farm.
Whether you’re stocking your pantry or just looking for a great way to spend a weekend, these markets offer the perfect opportunity to connect with the people and products that make our region so special.
From the Wasatch, with Love.
