Nestled at the corner of Main and Broad Streets, the Salem Farmers Market has been a vital hub for community connection and local agricultural since 1992. More than just a place to shop, the market serves as a downtown space for local farms, food producers, and artisans from within 100 miles of Salem to share their work with the community. Special events are held throughout the season, promoting the market, local farms, and the downtown business community.
