We’re now firmly into summer and, even though you can already feel it in the weather, nothing says it’s summer quite like a good farmer’s market. This Saturday, June 23rd, is the Ogden Farmers Market opening #SummerSaturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Historic 25th Street.
Salt Lake’s roguish sibling city loves to shop local and will host over 200 local vendors hawking their wares from homemade crafts, to freshly picked produce and even some street performances. But you’ll definitely not want to miss any of the Farmers Markets this year because each Saturday will feature new pop up community booths.
On the deck this Saturday:
- Foodscaping Utah: Learn how to grow a lot of food in small spaces.
- KUER 90.1: Play giant Jenga to win KUER/NPR swag
- Capstone Classical Academy – Utah: Try out your rhythm on African Drums (Djembe)
- EndIt Ogden: Sign up for a local 5K to help fight human trafficking and slavery
As always, the Farmers Market will feature live, local musicians performing for patrons. You’ll want to make your way to 25th and Lincoln to check out The Backyard Revival and Zachery Johnstun.
Get there early to enjoy 9 a.m. Outdoor Yoga in the beautiful Municipal Gardens with AndShesDopeToo or take the kiddos for free rides on the Jupiter Train located on 25th and Grant.
Of course, admission is free but parking can be a bit of a beast, so give yourself plenty of time to scout out the parking lots just north of 25th Street, try your luck at the Union Station parking lot, or just take the FrontRunner up, exit at Ogden Station and cross one street—it’s that easy.
