Janesville Farmers Market, Inc.

Premier sponsor support sits behind a market that fills the Downtown Janesville Town Square with 75-plus local growers and makers on Saturdays from May through October. The market runs in the 100 Block of North Main Street, giving it a straight downtown setting rather than a fairground or parking-lot layout. That combination matters for visitors: a sizable vendor count, a defined Main Street location, and a weekly Saturday schedule make this one of Janesville’s regular downtown shopping patterns through the main growing season.

Why it matters locally

Downtown Janesville Town Square is the market’s host site, and the market’s own description centers that square as the place where 75-plus local growers and makers gather each Saturday. That local maker-and-grower emphasis keeps the market tied to producers rather than to a general street festival format.

The market also has named sponsor backing, with Premier sponsor listed on the homepage. Combined with a weekly Saturday run from May to October, that points to an organized seasonal market with a steady place in downtown Janesville’s warm-weather calendar. The location on the 100 Block of North Main Street reinforces that downtown connection by placing shopping directly in the city center instead of on the edge of town.

What you'll find there

The clearest picture here is scale and emphasis: the market describes a Saturday lineup of 75-plus local growers and makers in Town Square, so expect a broad producer mix rather than a handful of stalls. Specific vendor names and item lists are not published in the accessible materials, but the market does frame the lineup around local growers and makers.

Know before you go

Free parking is the detail most likely to simplify your visit: Downtown Janesville offers plentiful no-cost parking in a ramp, surface lots, and on-street spaces. For a downtown market on the 100 Block of North Main Street, that matters more than usual because it broadens your options if you arrive with bags, a cart, or larger purchases.

The market runs on Saturdays from 8AM to 1PM between May and October, so plan around a single weekly window rather than multiple market days. Dogs are welcome, which may shape your route if you are walking downtown with a pet. Restrooms are not available, another practical point to sort out before you arrive. If you need to reach the market directly, a listed contact number is 608-289-9292.

Payments & SNAP

SNAP/EBT is accepted at Janesville Farmers Market, a useful option for shoppers planning food purchases here. The market’s visitor details also indicate that payment methods are clearly communicated, which helps set expectations before you start shopping. With a downtown layout and a large vendor count, that added payment clarity can make moving stall to stall more straightforward.
