ORGANIZATION: Richfield Farmers Market

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 5 people are interested

Each market day we have different kid’s activities. It’s fun for the kids, and helps families have a safe, free place to go every Saturday morning. Help us make the Richfield Farmers Market accessible to families of all types by assisting with our kid’s activities, or suggest your own ideas.

There will be a weekly kid’s coloring table with coloring sheets and crayons, as well as an interactive matching game that needs a bit of adult assistance.

Some weeks we are able to offer other activities, put on by independent groups such as Master Gardeners & Market Science.

Are you great at a particular art or craft? Your suggestions are encouraged.
Background check required.

About Richfield Farmers Market

Location:

6335 Portland Ave, Richfield, MN 55423, US

Mission Statement

Since 1990, Richfield Recreation Services has coordinated the Richfield Farmers Market in Veterans Memorial Park to provide access to local, healthy, and affordable foods. We offer this transformative gathering space where long-term sustaining connections between MN farmers & producers, community members, and neighbor to neighbor relationships are strengthened. The Market emphasizes educational and recreational activities to promote active living and community enrichment.

Description

The Richfield Farmers Market has a long tradition of offering locally grown produce and products to the Richfield community. The market is held at one of the best locations in the twin cities, in Veterans Memorial Park (64th Street & Portland Ave S), under the wooden picnic pavilion and in the adjacent park space.
A diverse group of 60+ different local farmers, food producers, and artisans come to sell at the market, many of who have been selling with us for 10-20+years. Live music, yoga classes, food access programs, educational community booths, special event days and more give the farmers market a fun atmosphere, while retaining it's essential mission as a marketplace and community gathering space.

Besides the market, the park offers plenty of other fun activities like walking trails through a wooded area and wetland, a mini golf course, Malt-T-Melt's café, and adaptive playground. The farmers market site is accessible, with paved trails, curb cuts, and accessible onsite restrooms available at the market for customers.

Offices for the Richfield Farmers Market are located at the Richfield Community Center at 7000 Nicollet Ave S. The Farmers Market is held at Veterans Memorial Park at 64th Street and Portland Ave S.
