The Monticello Farmers' Market is gearing up for another great season! Be sure to check out our Facebook page over on the sidebar, and if you haven't liked our page yet, please do! That's the best way to stay connected to all things Market-related. Our hours will be from 3:00 PM - 6:00 PM, allowing for more visitors to stop by after work. Please note, while some of our vendors do arrive and set up early, they are not permitted to sell any goods prior to 3 PM.
Enjoy healthy, delicious, fresh fruits and vegetables, eggs, a variety of meat and pork products, fresh flowers from the garden, yummy baked goods, and more. Mark your calendar for June 15 and let's kick off another memorable Market season! See you on State Street!
WHEN
Every Thursday, between June 15 and October 5, from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM
WHERE
On State Street, between Washington and Main Streets, on the Square. We have moved for at least the start of the season due to construction work at our normal location.
WHAT VENDORS COME TO THE MARKET?
Do you need some more information on our vendors? Here are some details on what they sell and when you will see them at the market! Click the +/- beside their names to find more info and dates when they will be at the market. Check back often as the list changes as we approve vendors and throughout the market year!
VENDOR INFO
Vendors who have products for sale that are homegrown, vendor-baked, or handcrafted WITHIN the State of Illinois are eligible to sell at the Market. Additionally, we allow no more than two NFP/Educational organizations, that are able to meet our guidelines. Each organization may attend no more than 1 time each month. The Market Director and the Main Street Staff coordinate all vendors and event promotions and are authorized to enforce guidelines. All returning and prospective vendors must complete the vendor contract, and submit proper paperwork indicated in guidelines and the vendor fee. Only completed applications will be considered. If for some reason a vendor is declined and a fee was taken, the vendor fee will be returned. Vendors may contact the Market Director, Amanda Pankau, with general questions or comments at 217-840-3057, or email amanda.pankau@gmail.com. We look forward to hosting you at the Monticello Farmer's Market!

It’s September and we know that means mums, pumpkin spice, and all things “fall” for many of you! 🍂
Whether you embrace an early fall or not, the
Market has you covered. For the next few weeks you can buy tomatoes and cucumber AND winter squash and mums at the Market…and so much more. We’ll have a taste of summer and fall. 🥒🍅🍂🎃
Mariah's Mums & More will be bringing their first selection of mums today! And check out the amazing winter squash varieties with Diamond's Homestead! They are packed with nutrients and are so versatile (check the comments for a few recipes and share your own favorite winter squash recipes!)
