Trumansburg Farmers Market

The Trumansburg Farmers Market runs its winter season inside the American Legion, a shift that gave the colder-month market a larger, more stable home after its inaugural season at the Trumansburg Fire Hall. In the warmer months, the market is associated with Village Park and the corner of Route 96 and Route 227, also known as Main Street and Hector Street. The weekly rhythm is clear: Wednesday market hours run from 4pm to 7pm, with the winter market keeping the same schedule as summer. That continuity makes this market feel less like a one-season stop and more like an ongoing part of Trumansburg’s weekly routine.

Why it matters locally

Friends of the Trumansburg Farmers’ Market was launched to work in partnership with the Village committee that oversees market operations, tying the market directly to local stewardship rather than a single private operator. That partnership structure is reinforced by a local nonprofit connection as well: Friends of TFM works with Pathways to Equity, a Trumansburg-area 501(c)(3), to accept donations.

The market also presents itself as more than a sales site. Its vendor-facing materials describe a gathering of local farmers, artisans, food makers, and live music, and its calendar includes a long run of Wednesday music dates through the main season. Sponsorships from organizations and businesses including the Colin Anderson Memorial Fund, Gemm Shop, JJ’s Dogs and More, Sage Hen Farm, Homesteady Health, and The Corner House show a broad base of named local support.

What you'll find there

This market emphasizes a mix rather than a narrow farm-stand format: its own materials highlight local farmers, artisans, food-focused vendors, and live music in one weekly gathering. Specific vendor rosters are not provided here, but the market’s stated mix gives a clear sense of the kinds of sellers it is built to host.

• -Browse local farmers as part of the market’s stated vendor mix.
• -Find artisans included alongside farm vendors.
• -Look for food-focused sellers described as “foodies” in market materials.
• -Catch live music during the market’s regular Wednesday run.

The events calendar lists Wednesday music dates from early May through late October, plus winter dates later in the year, all tied to market hours.

Know before you go

No dogs are allowed, which is the most likely detail to change plans before you leave home. If you’re driving, the winter market FAQ notes that the American Legion has an ample parking lot available for market use. The market’s main outdoor location is given as the corner of Route 96 and Route 227, also known as Main Street and Hector Street.

The site’s rules and landmark references also place the market within a park setting that includes the Peace Ship, the Playhouse above the Manager’s Office, the Children’s Library Stage, and the Bird & Pollinator Garden. Restrooms are not listed as available. For winter visits, the market has moved indoors at the American Legion after starting at the Trumansburg Fire Hall in 2023.

Payments & SNAP

SNAP/EBT is accepted at the Trumansburg Farmers Market, an important option for shoppers planning how to pay. Payment information is presented clearly by the market, which helps set expectations before arrival. If you’re visiting during the winter season at the American Legion or the summer Wednesday market, SNAP remains part of the market’s stated payment setup.
