One of the most beloved traditions in Fredericksburg returns for the 2024 season to Hurkamp Park: the Fredericksburg Farmers Market.
Lasting until October 28th, the Farmers Market opens on Hurkamp Park, Prince Edward Street, and George Street every Saturday from 7am-1pm. Swing by to enjoy fresh, local items such as baked goods, fruits and vegetables, herbs, breads, and so much more. The Farmers Market is filled with local vendors. If you would like to be a vendor, apply here.
