Farmers Markets near Baltimore, MD

Baltimore

Baltimore Food Hub operates out of 1801 East Oliver Street in East Baltimore. Its website returned a security certificate error at the time of research, so tenants and hours could not be confirmed — treat this listing as unverified until checked directly.

Baltimore

Hamilton-Lauraville Main Street runs the Tuesday Market across Harford Road from the neighborhood Safeway, with a policy that everything sold must be homemade or locally grown. Regulars include Prigel's Family Creamery, Fetter's Fruit Farm, and Chef Mac's Louisiana Cuisine, plus live music most weeks. It functions as much as a neighborhood gathering as a shopping stop in this corner of northeast Baltimore.

Baltimore

State Center Community Farmers' Market sets up on Preston Street in Baltimore with vendors including Calvert Farms, Valencia's Produce, and WestBrook Orchards selling fresh produce alongside stalls like Nuts to You and You and Me Soap Company. Many growers here emphasize chemical-free fruit and vegetables. It serves state office workers and residents around the State Center government complex.

Baltimore

Govanstowne Farmers Market has run on York Road since 2011, Wednesdays from 3 to 6 p.m., June through November, backed jointly by Loyola University Maryland, the York Road Partnership, and the Govanstowne Business Association. It sells fresh vegetables, fruit, eggs, milk, and meat, and takes a wider range of payment than most small markets — cash, cards, EBT/Independence Cards, WIC, SFMNP, and FVC benefits all work here.

Baltimore

The BMI Farmers Market runs Saturdays from May through November on the waterfront grounds of the Baltimore Museum of Industry at 1415 Key Highway — roughly 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., with produce and prepared-food stands set up alongside cut flowers, cheese, and baked goods. It shares the museum's Key Highway lot, so a market run doubles easily as a stop at the exhibits.

The Village of Cross Keys Farmers Market runs Tuesdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., June through October, in the shopping center's parking lot on Falls Road. Greenwood Farm and Anson Farm anchor the produce stalls, with Carol's Bakery, honey, apple butter, and pickles rounding out the food side, plus jewelry and container-gardening vendors. It draws a mostly North Baltimore crowd running errands during the week rather than a weekend destination trip.

This farmers market operates out of the Whole Foods Market in Baltimore's Mt. Washington neighborhood, running Wednesdays from noon to 6 p.m. between mid-May and early October. Outside vendors set up alongside the store's regular grocery offerings, selling seasonal produce and cut flowers. Shoppers are advised to bring a cooler or insulated bag for meat and dairy purchases.

Baltimore

Set up in the Eastpoint Mall parking lot on Eastern Avenue in Baltimore, this market runs Wednesdays, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., from mid-June through October. It's a straightforward produce-and-goods market — fresh vegetables, organic items, crafts, and local specialties — and accepts WIC and Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program benefits, making it one of the more accessible stops for shoppers using those programs on the east side of the city.

Baltimore

Park Heights Community Farmers' Market sets up in the Pimlico Race Course parking lot every Wednesday from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., June through mid-December. Billed as Baltimore's first mid-week farmers market, it sells seafood, meat, cheese, honey, cut flowers, and baked goods, and accepts WIC and Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program vouchers. The long season stretching past first frost sets it apart from most Baltimore-area markets.

Dundalk

The Greater Dundalk Chamber of Commerce ran a seasonal farmers market at 44 Shipping Place for several years, offering the usual mix of fresh produce, handcrafted goods, and locally sourced items each spring through fall. The chamber announced it would not open the market this year, citing unforeseen circumstances, and thanked the vendors and shoppers who'd supported it. Check with the chamber directly before assuming this market is running.

This Glen Burnie market sets up in front of Best Buy on Ritchie Highway, Thursdays from 4 to 7 p.m., running June through late September. More than 30 vendors turn out alongside live music, food trucks, and free ice cream giveaways — enough of a draw that the county extended its season. Call the county line for current details.

Catonsville Farmers Market runs every other Wednesday at 5820 Edmondson Avenue, late morning into early afternoon, with a rotating vendor list that's included Belles Acres, Kite Hill Farms, and Wilson's Farm Market. It takes cash, SNAP, and cards — no separate token system to slow down a quick stop. Smaller and more predictable than the county's bigger Saturday markets.

Catonsville

Catonsville Sunday Farmers Market runs May through late November at 15 Mellor Avenue, 9 a.m. to noon, organized through the Greater Catonsville Chamber of Commerce — a separate market from the Wednesday one across town on Edmondson Avenue, so don't mix up the days. Expect fresh produce, baked goods, and local vendors in a walkable stretch of the neighborhood's business district.

Parkton

Woodlawn

Hydes

Good Life Thursday turns Boordy Vineyards' lawn in Hydes into a weekly market and hangout — local, organic produce and crafts starting at 4 p.m. every Thursday through the growing season, with live music and food running alongside it. It's less a grocery stop than an evening out that happens to include a farmers market, which fits a winery hosting it.

Ellicott City

Ellicott City's Old Town Market sets up in Tiber Park on Main Street, Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. through the spring-to-fall season. Vendors sell seasonal produce, mushrooms, meat, dairy, baked goods, flowers, and artisan crafts, with most stalls taking cash and card and some accepting SNAP, EBT, FMNP, or WIC. It sits in the middle of Ellicott City's historic Main Street shopping strip, an easy add-on to a day downtown.

The Owings Mills Farmers Market sets up at the Jewish Community Center on Gwynnbrook Avenue, with a Wednesday evening market from 3 to 7 p.m. running June through October and a Sunday market from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. earlier in the season. Now in its sixth consecutive year, it draws local farms and vendors selling produce, baked goods, jams, and honey.

JESSUP

Ellicott City

Howard County runs this producer-only market at the Miller Branch Library on Frederick Road, Wednesdays from 2 to 6 p.m., May through October. Every vendor here sells what they've grown or made themselves — produce, pantry goods, flowers, baked goods, and local drinks, no resellers. Call the county line for this season's vendor list or weather closures.

Severna Park

Howard County's Oakland Mills market sets up every Sunday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., May through November, at Robert Oliver Place in Columbia. Local growers bring seasonal produce, organic vegetables, fruit, and artisan goods, and the market accepts WIC and Senior FMNP vouchers alongside cash and card. It's one of three county-run markets operating on a rotating weekly schedule across Howard County.

Parkton

This producer-only market on York Road in Parkton runs Saturdays, 9 a.m. to noon, May through November, with SNAP/EBT and card payments both accepted. Regular vendors include Side by Side Farm, Oak Spring Farm, Ferguson Family Farm, The Contented Rooster Farm, and Golden Grain Bread Company, several of them USDA-certified organic. It's smaller than the county's bigger markets, but the vendor lineup stays consistent week to week.

Odenton

Piney Orchard Farmers Market has run outside the Piney Orchard Community Center on Stream Valley Drive for more than two decades, one of the longer-standing markets in Anne Arundel County. Wednesday hours run 2 to 6 p.m. from late spring through October, with vendors selling local produce, baked goods, honey, and specialty foods. The wooded community-center setting gives it a quieter feel than the county's bigger markets.

This East Columbia market runs Sundays, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., spring through fall, at 6600 Cradlerock Way — part of the same county-run system as the Ellicott City market on the other side of Howard County. Vendors sell produce, baked goods, flowers, and artisan goods; some offer pesticide-free options, though it's worth asking individual sellers directly since not all are certified organic.

Gambrills

Anne Arundel County's largest farmers market runs Saturdays, 8 a.m. to noon, in the Crofton Library lot on Riedel Road. It's producer-only, with more than 50 vendors selling produce, meats, dairy, breads, flowers, and crafts, plus food trucks on-site. Now past its first decade, the market draws enough of a following that its Facebook page tops 17,000 followers. Arrive early — parking fills fast.

Bel Air

Bel Air Farmers Market has run as a producer-only market since 1975 — everything on the tables is grown, raised, or made by the more than 60 Harford County vendors who show up, not resold. Saturdays, 8 a.m. to noon, in the parking lot next to the Mary Risteau building on South Bond Street. Fifty years running makes it one of the older markets in the state.

Bel Air

Marketplace on Main is Bel Air's producer-only farmers market, running Saturdays from 8 a.m. to noon, April through November, with a shorter winter market in late November and December. More than 60 Harford County vendors sell only what they grow, raise, or make themselves — produce, non-GMO meat and eggs, baked goods, honey, and local beer and wine. The market has served the area since 1975.

The Laurel Farmers Market runs Thursdays from 3 to 7 p.m., April through October, on Main Street downtown. Vendors including Zahradka Family Farm, Metro Microgreens, and Hexed Honey Farm sell locally grown produce, honey, and handmade goods, and the market accepts SNAP/EBT with matching funds through Maryland's Money Market program. Compost drop-off bags are also available on-site each week.

Annapolis

This market sets up on the Anne Arundel Medical Center campus in Annapolis, at Riva Road and Harry S. Truman Parkway, giving hospital staff, patients, and neighbors a produce stand without leaving the medical campus. It runs on weekends during the season, with local vendors rotating through — a hospital system building healthy-food access directly into its own parking lot.

Annapolis

The Maryland Department of Natural Resources hosts this small market in the parking lot of its own Tawes State Office Building on Taylor Avenue in Annapolis, Thursday afternoons from June through early September. It's aimed at state employees and nearby residents rather than tourists — produce, eggs, milk, meat, and other farm goods sold straight from the growers. Call for this season's exact schedule.

Fulton

The original Maple Lawn Farmers Market at 7405 Maple Lawn Boulevard has closed permanently, according to its own Facebook page. A successor, the Fulton Farmers Market, now runs nearby on Fridays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., April through November, selling seasonal produce and prepared foods. Shoppers headed to this address should confirm the current market location before visiting.

Clarksville

This small Annapolis market sets up in the front parking lot of Clock Tower Place on Forest Drive, running Fridays from 4 to 7 p.m. through the summer. It's a low-key stop for produce and handcrafted goods from regional vendors — shoppers often grab what they need here, then walk over to Tastings Gourmet nearby for bread, cheese, and wine. No indoor stalls, no frills, just a parking-lot market locals fold into their Friday routine.

Bowie Farmers Market takes over the Bowie High School parking lot on Annapolis Road every Sunday from late May through October, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Vendors bring locally grown produce, cut flowers, artisan bread, pastries, and meat — a City of Bowie-run market, which is part of why it's stayed consistent year to year.

Hampstead

Hampstead's market runs Saturdays, 8:30 a.m. to noon, June through September, in the parking lot at Coppermine Pantherplex — the former North Carroll High School building on Panther Drive. It's been a fixture at this spot since 2021, with free admission, free parking, and handicap accessibility built in from the start.

Beltsville

Briggs Chaney-Greencastle Farmers and Artisans Market runs out of the Fairland-area location on Briggs Chaney Road in Silver Spring, pairing local produce with handcrafted goods in what's now billed as an indoor, community-hub setup. It draws a mixed crowd — families doing a weekly shop and browsers there for the artisans as much as the food.

Greenbelt

New Freedom

The USDA Farmers Market at Beltsville sets up in Parking Lot B of the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center on Sunnyside Avenue. Vendors including Harris Orchard, Melwood Horticulture, and Westmoreland Produce sell fresh fruit, vegetables, and plants to USDA employees and the surrounding community. Its location inside a federal research campus makes it one of the more unusual farmers market settings in the state.

College Park

A group of North College Park residents started this market in 2013 to bring fresh food to their side of town, and it's grown into a Saturday fixture — 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., through late November — in the Hollywood Shopping Center lot next to MOM's Organic Market. Live music runs alongside the produce and handmade goods stalls, and SNAP and WIC shoppers get matching-dollar incentives on top of their benefits.

Westminster

Carroll County Farmers Market is the oldest running market in the county and the second-oldest in Maryland, set up at the Agriculture Center on Agriculture Center Drive in Westminster. On a full Saturday it can pull 75 to 100 vendors selling seasonal produce, pasture-raised meat, local eggs, honey, jams, and baked goods — big enough to function as the county's default grocery run in season.

Silver Spring

Oak Chapel United Ministries runs a food hub at 14500 Layhill Road in Silver Spring, connecting the church's ministry work to fresh food access for the surrounding Montgomery County neighborhood. No independent website or social page was found to confirm current distribution days or hours.
