The three farmers markets listed below are some of the most popular ones in Nebraska. They also happen to be the ones that I attend most often. Buying from farmer’s markets is a great way to support small family farms and improve your health through superior nutrition. While you’re there, take the opportunity to ask questions and learn from these people. Many of them are very friendly and love educating people about what they do. Hope to see you there!
