Dane County Farmers' Market

Fresh greens like lettuce mix are one of the early spring crops patrons can purchase at the Dane County Farmers' Market; 2021 Saturday markets begin April 10 at the Alliant Energy Center.

Ramps, anyone? The surest sign of spring is the return to outdoors of the Saturday Dane County Farmers’ Market. The market remains at the Alliant Energy Center for now as the large parking lot in front of the Exhibition Hall allows for plenty of social distancing. Shoppers should remain six feet apart and mask; otherwise, it's a traditional market with "spontaneous shopping," although customers can pre-order from specific vendors. There is no drive-through pickup on Saturdays. A return to the Square will be assessed later in the season.

media release: Beginning on Saturday, April 10, the DCFM will host a weekly Saturday Market outdoors from 7 am to Noon at the Alliant Energy Center. This market will be a traditional farmers’ market with primarily spontaneous shopping. Additionally, customers may choose to pre-order products and pick them up on foot from each vendor. There is no drive-thru pick up on Saturdays.

We are permitted to operate as an essential food access point and public health guidelines are in place, including a mask requirement for all patrons 5 years or older. Read our Safe Shopper Code of Conduct for more information.

Our Saturday Market at the Alliant Energy Center is located in the parking lot of the Exhibition Hall. To get to the Saturday Market, navigate to the main entrance of the Alliant Energy Center via Rimrock Road. Turn on to Alliant Energy Center Way and follow the signage directing you to turn left into the Farmers' Market Parking area. When you have concluded your market trip, turn right to exit via Alliant Energy Center Way.

Bicycle racks are located in the parking lot of the Exhibition Hall. Please lock your bike at the provided bike racks or walk it through the market area. You may not ride through the market.
