THANK YOU!

for a wonderful 2024 market season, see you next year!

We’d love to hear about your experience and gather your feedback to help us improve for next year. Please take our customer survey about the 2024 market season:

Know your family farmer

The Eastside Farmers' Market is Madison Wisconsin’s finest weekday farmers' market.  Our goal is to bring the freshest Wisconsin grown food direct to the heart of the East side. Our vendor members are agricultural producers and food artisans who make value added products from Wisconsin's agricultural bounty. We aim to create a dynamic and fun community event based on great local food and connecting with each other in a real way.  Ask your family farmer what is new this week and your Tuesday afternoons will be brightened.

Join us every Tuesday from April 29th - October 28th 2025

The eastside community invests in our local food system

The brambly lot next to the railroad tracks along E. Wilson St. was home to the Eastside Farmers' Market on its opening day in 2002.  The market, initially sponsored by Willy Street Coop, later moved to the Wil-Mar Neighborhood Center to facilitate the build out of Madison's Central Park, renamed McPike Park in 2018.  The Wil-Mar Neighborhood Center hosted the market from 2010 through 2015. In 2016, the Eastside Farmers' Market moved back to the new and improved McPike Park. We are proud to continue to provide the highest quality, diverse, home grown foods to our neighbors and we thank you for being loyal customers of the market!
