Shawano Farmers Market

For Shawano residents looking to eat locally and support Wisconsin agriculture, Shawano Farmers Market is a reliable source of fresh, in-season food from farms in the surrounding region.

Farmers markets like Shawano Farmers Market represent a fundamentally different way of accessing food compared to a supermarket. When you shop at Shawano Farmers Market, the person selling you tomatoes is often the same person who planted them — a level of transparency and traceability that industrial food systems cannot replicate. That direct relationship is what draws many Shawano residents to the market week after week.

The selection at Shawano Farmers Market changes as the growing season progresses. Early in the season, expect cool-weather crops like salad greens, radishes, and herbs. Peak summer brings the widest variety — tomatoes, peppers, corn, stone fruits, and squash. By fall, the market shifts toward storage vegetables, apples, pears, preserves, and baked goods that make use of seasonal harvests. This seasonal rhythm is something you feel at a farmers market in a way you never do in a grocery store.

Shawano Farmers Market is committed to serving all members of the Shawano community. SNAP/EBT benefits are accepted, meaning nutrition assistance recipients can use their benefits to buy fresh, locally grown produce and other eligible items directly from vendors. These programs reflect a broader commitment to food access that many farmers market organizers across Wisconsin have prioritized in recent years.
