Farmers Market at Ix, Dec. 13, 2025 Holiday Season
Market Hours: 9:00 a.m.- 1:00 p.m. Location: Ix Art Park Managers: Market Central
Just two more Farmers Markets at Ix for the 2025 season! Plan for your holiday shopping for tomorrow and next Saturday. The markets are probably the best opportunity to see local artisans and products in one place. It’s cold, so dress warmly, have a good breakfast and warm drink, and take your time to look at the many products offered. Of course, stock up on food supplies as well.
Looking to the future, Market Central, Cultivate and IRC New Roots will be co-hosting a community conversation about growing and accessing local food in the current state of climate change. How are we doing, are there new tips to share, and how can we prepare for resiliency from the impacts of extreme heat, floods, insects, diseases, and other challenges? Small and large gardeners, seed savers, and local food consumers are welcome to join us at the Jefferson School African American Heritage Auditorium on Jan. 17, from 2:30 to 5:00. Meet and Greet from 2:00-2:30. Conversation from 3:00-5:00. More information is forthcoming.
Market Central is a 50(c)3 non-profit whose mission is to connect the community with local farms and food at farmers markets. If you are interested in maintaining and improving our markets for the future, please consider joining our board, or let us know about someone who is interested. Great things can happen with the vision and expertise from our community.
