Farmers Market Season Springing to Life in Mississippi County
There’s no better way to enjoy spring and summer in the Land of Steel than by supporting local farmers, bakers and artisans at one of Mississippi County’s community-driven farmers markets. Whether you’re shopping for just-picked produce, local honey, handmade crafts or a friendly chat with your neighbors, our markets are the perfect places to connect, explore and celebrate the season.
Osceola Farmers Market
Every Thursday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the Osceola Farmers Market sets up shop at Courthouse Square, bringing fresh energy—and even fresher goods—to the heart of town. Organized by Osceola Main Street, this market has already kicked off its 2025 season and is welcoming shoppers each week with locally grown produce, homemade baked goods, flowers, preserves, crafts and more.
Whether you’re grabbing tomatoes for dinner or stocking up on hand-poured candles and soaps, you’ll find something special every time you visit. It's a celebration of small-town charm and big community spirit. Don’t forget to check their Facebook page for vendor highlights and weekly specials:
