Farmers Markets near Bel Air, MD

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.

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.

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.

Perryville

The Perryville Farmers Market has run at Lower Ferry Park on Broad Street since 2013, drawing farm and craft vendors to a spot overlooking the Susquehanna River near Rodgers Tavern Museum. Saturday hours run 8:30 a.m. to noon, May through October, with homegrown produce and homemade goods filling the stalls. It's one of the few Cecil County markets with river views built into the shopping trip.

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

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.

Parkton

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

North East

Cecil County Farmers' Market sets up on South Main Street in North East, Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., pairing area growers like Carlisle Produce and cheese with local crafters selling homemade goods. It's a small-town market walkable from the North East waterfront, running through the growing season with a loyal, regular crowd of vendors.

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.

Sparks Glencoe

New Freedom

Glen Rock

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.

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.

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.

Woodlawn

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.
