Farmers Market at Ix, April 4, 2026
Market Hours 8:00 am- 12:pm; Location: Ix Art Park 522 2nd St. SE, Charlottesville, VA
Happy spring celebrations at the Market at Ix. Most farms are returning this month, and the cycle of seasonal produce begins again with greens, radishes, root vegetables, mushrooms, spring flowers and live plants. Don’t plant too early! The chance of frost still exists: the low 30’s are in the forecast next week.
The first Saturday of the months means Deep Roost Milling will be here with freshly ground flour from regionally grown grain. Nona’s Italian Cucina also brings awarding winning tomato sauce. She learned to make the sauce from her Italian neighbor when stationed in Italy.
We have a full market and actually have to turn down qualified and creative applicants. Our markets could be so much more! We would love to find a local space where we could open on more days ad invest in our infrastructure. We bring in a significant amount of revenue, but 85% goes to pay for the space. Let us know if you know of a place- and/or would like to serve on the Market Central Board to guide the future of Market Central and independent farmers markets in Charlottesville. We are ready for the future!
In the meantime one solution to host more vendors and neighborhoods, is the Starr Hill Market at Jefferson School City Center, which opens on Sunday May 17 from 9:30 until 1:30, perfect for a leisurely Sunday morning.
