Bloomington Farmers Market

Bloomington Farmers Market adds a second rhythm to the usual weekend run with Midweek Music & Market, a Wednesday evening series tied to Arts in the Parks at Bloomington Civic Plaza. The market’s main season also includes Saturday outdoor dates from June 6 through October 17, 2026, giving shoppers both a traditional morning market and a shorter evening option later in the week. Set at 1800 West Old Shakopee Road, the market mixes farm vendors, prepared-food sellers, bakers, beverage makers, and specialty goods in one Civic Plaza location.

Why it matters locally

Bloomington Civic Plaza is central to how this market operates: Saturday outdoor markets and Wednesday Midweek Music & Market both use Civic Plaza locations, while the Indoor Winter Market moves into the lobby and main corridor there. That gives Bloomington a market presence across outdoor and indoor seasons, rather than limiting activity to one summer setup. The market is also organized through the City of Bloomington and its Parks and Recreation Department, and the Wednesday series connects with Arts in the Parks, linking shopping with a city arts program instead of treating it as a separate event.

What you'll find there

The vendor mix at Bloomington Farmers Market stretches well beyond produce stands. Civic Plaza’s market roster includes vegetables and flowers, meat, seafood, breads and pastries, coffee and drinks, ready-to-eat food, and body-care or craft booths, so a visit can lean toward grocery shopping, lunch, or pantry extras depending on the day.

Know before you go

No parking is allowed in the East/Farmers Market lot, so drivers should plan to use the West parking lot at Civic Plaza or the additional parking across 98th Street at Public Works. Handicap-accessible parking is available in the West parking lot of Civic Plaza. Dogs are not allowed, which matters if the market is part of a longer park or errand outing. The market takes place at 1800 West Old Shakopee Road at Bloomington Civic Plaza, and Claire Liddle is listed as the farmers market coordinator.

Payments & SNAP

SNAP/EBT is accepted at Bloomington Farmers Market. The market also lists payment methods clearly, which helps when you're splitting a visit between farm stands, baked goods, and prepared-food vendors.
