The Glens Falls Farmers Market is like a big kitchen table for the city—where neighbors gather, stories are shared, and healthy, local food is always on the menu. If you want a taste of the region’s best flavors or just want to feel part of the community, the market is the place to be.
The History and Story of the Location
The Glens Falls Farmers Market first opened its tents and tables on July 21, 1976, starting as a simple way for local farmers and bakers to bring fresh goods to the heart of the city. Over the years, it grew from a small outdoor setup into a year-round market with over 40 vendors, rotating booths for small businesses, and live music on market days. In 2025, the market is making history again by moving to its new permanent four-season home, the Market Center at 57 South Street. While construction continues into the summer, the market operates outdoors on Maple Street and indoors at Aviation Mall for the winter months.
The market has always been about local connection, supporting family farms, specialty food makers, crafters, and new entrepreneurs. You’ll find everything from fruits and vegetables to homemade soap and breakfast crepes—plus a community spirit that keeps bringing people back week after week.
