Get ready to shop Arlington Heights Farmers Market

Surround yourself with fresh, local foods and family fun this market season.

The Arlington Heights Farmers Market is held from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Saturdays, May 15 through Oct. 16, in the commuter parking lot across from the Arlington Heights Historical Museum, corner of West Fremont Street and North Vail Avenue.

The farmers market will be bustling with local fresh produce, artisanal cheese, homemade pastries, freshly roasted coffee, hot breakfast foods, handmade goods, and more.

This year's market features nearly 40 vendors. New and returning farmers, chefs, cooks, producers and craftsmen bring a variety of goods to this year's market.

Live music, a master gardener, the Arlington Heights Memorial Library's bookmobile, and family activities return to the market this season. Weekly raffles are planned for the first three weeks in July.

Safety requirements to comply with COVID Phase 4 will be in place to help protect market patrons and vendors. Masks and social distancing are required, and pets are not allowed into the market. Sanitization is a priority at the market, and the vendors follow all health department protocols. Patrons are asked to limit their handling of goods on display. Crowds will be limited.
