The Omaha Farmers Market traces its roots to Omaha’s old City Market, which stood at 11th and Jackson at the turn of the last century. When the modern market reopened on that same ground in 1994, it was Omaha’s first direct-to-consumer farmers market — and it has grown into the state’s largest and most visited.
Two weekly markets anchor the season: Saturdays in the Old Market (8–12:30) and Sundays in Aksarben Village (9–1), May through mid-October, with more than 120 vendors of produce, flowers, prepared foods, and handcrafted goods. It was the first market in Nebraska to offer a SNAP token program, and it doubles SNAP through Double Up Food Bucks. Don’t miss the annual Holiday Market the first weekend of December.
