The Upper Merion Farmers Market is an award-winning, producer-only market conveniently located in the heart of King of Prussia. The Market aims to support the local economy, enrich the quality of life in Upper Merion, and promote the public health and environmental benefits of eating local and Pennsylvania’s sustainable agriculture.
Every Saturday 9:00AM to 1:00PM from mid-May through November, the Upper Merion Farmers Market becomes the “Town Square” for our Upper Merion Community.
With average crowds of approximately 1,000 people (25,000 people total – 2020 season) and special events running the second Saturday of every month, the Upper Merion Farmers Market is a community favorite! In addition to farm fresh vegetables, locally sourced products, and artisans, there’s also plenty of fun-filled events and live music each weekend.
Unlike other markets, the Upper Merion Farmers Market only accepts vendors from within a 100-mile radius of Upper Merion Township. The Market has been voted the fourth best farmers market in Pennsylvania by the American Farmland Trust.
The Mission of the Upper Merion Farmers Market:
◼ Support the local economy by providing fruits, vegetables, and other products directly to the consumer from the producer
◼ Enrich the quality of life in Upper Merion through additional venue for community interaction in a public space
◼ Broaden public health and environmental benefits of sustainable agriculture in Pennsylvania
The Upper Merion Farmers Market operates under the umbrella of Upper Merion Township and Upper Merion Township Foundation and is overseen by the Farmers Market Advisory Board.
