Great place to buy local organic foods. Anything from honey in a stick, bakery items, to fresh eggs, fruits and vegetables. Visiting in the summer times is the best. This is when lots of action happen, vendors galore! Even trial yoga outside! Winter time vendors are cut to about 1/8 of the summer time crowd, however there is also indoor vendors. These usually stay the same throughout the year. Chiropractors, alpaca wool, popcorn, bakery items, candy and such are the usual vendors indoors. There even is a cafe adjoining this space. Great food, fresh from local farms available in a cafe style setting. Some nights the cafe holds "movie nights". -Come take a peek!

The market was packed with happy people strolling and shopping in the market, stall after stall outside with more inside. Produce, meat, arts & crafts and I don't what all for sale. My first visit was on this beautiful, cool September Saturday. I don't know if they always have a bounce castle ($3/5 minutes) and clown. Davenport Parks brought a mobile playground in an old fire engine. The place was a happy madhouse. Near the Quad Cities Visitor Center, Modern Woodman [Ball]Park, and The River's Edge (skating, soccer & more). There is plenty of parking, but some places can be a bit remote. The smart shoppers brought their own reusable bags.

Lots of fresh produce at this market right next to the Mississippi River. People bring their kids, dogs, family ion Saturday mornings.Wonderful, delicious baked foods - try the pies from the Amish ladies. I just love the small cherry pie. The crust is perfection. In the spring, you can buy bedding plants and tropicals. In the fall, huge mums are for sale.Come early since it gets very crowded by 9:30.

A good farmers market, decent amount of variety, not very large for the size of the town however. Very small compared to Des Moines.

We live for the start up of the outdoors Freight House Farmer's market. It is more than a shopping experience. We have developed relationships with the vendors and enjoy catching up with them, every year. It is a mini-getaway to spend two hours at the market. After shopping, we love to enjoy breakfast crepes and a brew seated on the veranda that overlooks the Misissippi River levee and Modern Woodman ballpark. It is a festive atmosphere every week.

The title says it all. It really is like visiting a county fair every Saturday. The on site restaurant is a hoot as well. They often have musicians and it you think you know what it is like, then multiply that by two. It's HUGE!

We have been going to the Freight House market on Saturdays for at least 3 years. There is always a good selection, especially early in the day. Wide variety of baked goods and fresh from the garden produce.
