There's a farmer's market going on in Reno and/or Sparks almost every day of the week during spring, summer and fall. We all know fresh fruit and vegetables taste better and you will be supporting many local businesses while getting good food for you and your family. If you know of others, let us know. When shopping, look for Grown in Nevada signs, which let you know that food and other products from vendors displaying the sign comes from right here in Nevada.

I've included farmers' markets in nearby areas, too. You can still shop for fresh produce and other goodies when out and about in northern Nevada and around Lake Tahoe.

No dogs allowed at farmers markets - Only registered service animals are allowed at farmers markets. Unless your dog is one of these, do not bring it to farmers markets.
