The original Missoula Farmers' Market at the XXXX’s on north Higgins in Missoula begins saturday May 4th

Saturday, May 4th, from 8:00 am to 12:30 pm, Missoula Farmers’
Market’s 52nd season will debut and will operate from the first Saturday in May through
the end of October. Located at the North end of Higgins by the red XXXXs, the market
will feature early season veggies and plant starts, eggs, meat and mushrooms. In
addition, locally grown, raised, gathered and processed meat, eggs and mushrooms are
available all season long. This year we’ve added agricultural crafts. This includes locally
sourced agricultural products like bees wax or local wool.
We are also welcoming two new co-managers to the market in 2024. Katiee Collins was
a volunteer at the market in 2023 and agreed to take the reins as Operations Manager
this season. Tami Hubbard will also be joining as Communications Manager. Hubbard
has past experience with local farmers markets. Both Collins and Hubbard are looking
forward to helping to create a welcoming shopping experience.
Shoppers can purchase a cup of coffee or a cold beverage and a treat from one of the
bakers and prepared food vendors as they stroll through the market to the tune of the
weekly musician. They can enjoy the atmosphere and browse a wide selection of
canned vegetables, jellies, jams, and sauces, dried teas, honey, handcrafted face and
body care products and other value-added products made from local ingredients.
“The Missoula Farmers’ Market has always been home to a variety of vendors who hail
from Missoula and all over the world,” says Lou Ann Crowley, President of the Missoula
Farmers’ Market board of directors. We’re proud to feature local food with an
international flair and can’t wait to taste the delicacies from both new and seasoned
vendors this year.”
