Eastside Farmers' Market

media release: The Eastside Farmers' Market is Madison Wisconsin’s finest weekday farmers' market.  Our goal is to bring the freshest Wisconsin grown food direct to the heart of the East side. Our vendor members are agricultural producers and food artisans who make value added products from Wisconsin's agricultural bounty. We aim to create a dynamic and fun community event based on great local food and connecting with each other in a real way.  Ask your family farmer what is new this week and your Tuesday afternoons will be brightened.

Join us 4:00PM - 7:00PM every Tuesday from April 30-October 29, 2024, McPike Park, 202 S. Ingersoll St.

Conveniently located off of the E. Washington corridor and the East side bike path. Street parking available for customers along Ingersoll, East Main Street, and the surrounding area.

Food scraps recycling drop-off will return to the Eastside Farmers' Market starting on Tuesday, April 30, 2024. Individuals may drop-off certain allowable food scraps to a designated drop-off booth for free.

Food scraps drop-off will be available from 4:00pm until 7:00pm on Tuesday evenings. The appropriate scraps will be accepted every Tuesday starting on April 30, 2024 and ending on October 29, 2024.

The food scraps acceptable in this program are the same materials that would be suitable for a backyard compost bin. Coffee grounds, egg shells, raw fruits and vegetables, and other similar scraps are allowed.

The program cannot accept meat products, bones, compostable plastics, paper products, grease, or dairy products (including cheese).

Additional details about what can, and cannot, be accepted at the food scraps drop-off site can be found on the Streets Division’s Food Scraps website.

Staff at the food scraps drop-off tent will also be able to provide guidance about what material they can accept.
