How to find our vendors

We have created one entrance and exit for the market to limit the number of customers within the market. Please wait your turn outside of the market and be sure to maintain 6 feet between you and your fellow shoppers. The pink arrows show the walkway and the x's show 6 ft spacing for customers to stand on. This will help everyone maintain social distancing.

Parking will be easiest to get to by turning onto Brookside (next to UDF), then a left onto Hobart Ave and parking in the lot directly behind NorthChurch or park in the public lot on Lingo Ave.

New Transaction Policy

For the safety of our customers and vendors, the market will no longer be processing credit and debit cards in exchange for market tokens. Cash and credit cards will still be accepted by vendors, but we encourage pre-payment online for the safest shopping for both you and our vendors. Please utilize our pre-order pre-pay website farmnivorous.com to order your goods and pre-pay online. Orders open up on Sundays at 3pm and close Tuesday at 6pm for Wednesday market. If you would like to order Blue Oven Bakery’s products, please visit their site at www.blueovenbakery.com. Be sure to order today - they require 72 hours notice on all orders. If you would like to join Our Harvest's CSA, please visit www.ourharvest.coop.

Customers may still visit the Information booth and swipe their EBT cards in exchange for tokens. Produce Perks is still offering an unlimited match on SNAP dollars spent until further notice. Customers using SNAP may now order online as well. Please put in your customer ID (first initial, middle initial, birth month, birth day) upon checkout. Visit the information booth to get tokens and visit each vendor to pay and pick up for your orders.

If you have questions while making your order, reach out via email to the vendor (you'll see vendor emails on the site) or email support@farmnivorous.com.

Curbside Pickup now an option, in addition to shopping at the market

If you have pre-ordered at Farmnivorous, you now have the option to pick up your order curbside! Curbside pickup will be available from 5:30-6:30pm every Wednesday during market. When you check out, you will see directions to e-mail the market to choose curbside pickup. You must e-mail us after you have ordered for us to have it ready for you at curbside; otherwise, you will need to pick up your orders with the individual vendors inside the market. You will receive an e-mail from info@northsidefm.org with instructions on how to pick up your order.

We are still open -
but with some revisions to keep everyone safe

Northside Farmers Market’s is crucial to the local family farmers and producers who bring nutritious, sustainably-grown food directly to the people of Northside and the surrounding communities and we are working on safe options to continue to bring you that nourishment.

With your support, Northside Farmers Market has been operating through good times and bad for the past 18 years, paving a new path for the local food economy in the Midwest by deepening our support for small family farmers, educating consumers and the next generation of eaters, and increasing access to local, healthy, sustainable food.

Northside Farmers Market will remain open with revisions to ensure the safety of our customers and vendors. The market will be moved outside behind NorthChurch. Parking will be available behind NorthChurch and CAIN's parking lot. All events, cooking classes, and children's activities have been cancelled until further notice. We would like to encourage everyone to move through the market quickly to help prevent the spread of infection. A hand washing station will be available and we encourage our customers and vendors to use it often. Vendors will wash and disinfect their tables and will maintain a safe distance away from each other and customers. Customers will still be able to swipe their debit / credit / and EBT cards. Produce Perks is offering an unlimited match right now for all SNAP customers! That means if you spend $40 on your SNAP card, you will receive $40 in Produce Perks to spend on fresh fruits and vegetables!

In the coming week, customers will be able to pre-order from our website and pick up from the market, making it faster and even more convenient. Please visit www.northsidefm.org for more information.
