Benton Farmers' Market is a Sunday Only market beginning June 1, 2014 from 12:30 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. and continues through Sunday, July 27, 2014. It will be held at the Town of Benton Simpson Street Park. The market will be the first event held at the newly developed downtown park. See our Map page to see how easily accessible we are from Highway 3 and Airline Drive!
Our market encourages a sense of community among the farmers, shoppers and the local people as a whole. It is all about supporting each other and giving the community an opportunity to participate in a growing and appreciated lifestyle choice for better health. The market allows personal interaction between the grower/producer and the buyer. The Benton Farmers' Market offers much more than veggies and fruits, poultry, eggs, pasture raised pork and beef and Louisiana seafood. In addition to some of the traditional items, people can purchase plants and flowers, locally produced jams, jellies and baked goods. Honeys, herbs, ground corn meal and grits, homemade salsas and BBQ sauces are also quite popular. You can even browse the farm crafts and creations of local artisans with their goat milk soaps and lotions made from fresh herbs.
Our Sunday Market is a great way to spend your Sunday afternoons with family and friends and you can even pick up something for lunch from our great array of food vendors!
Vendor applications are still being accepted. Due to the tremendous response to the market (over 50 vendors) all accepted vendors will be placed on a waiting list. See our Rules and Application pages to submit an application. As soon as vendor spaces become available, we will be contacting vendors on the waiting list.
Keep up with weekly vendor highlights during the market season and other special events such as special guests or the schedule of events for the week on our Facebook page.
