2009 heralds the seventh year for the
Clintonville Farmers’ Market in Columbus, Ohio.
The market grew from the desire of Clintonville
merchants and residents to buy local produce and
to meet the farmers who grow it. During
the past six seasons, the market has become a
destination event!
The Clintonville Farmers’ Market is held on
North High Street in a highly visible retail and
residential area just 3 miles north of The Ohio
State University campus. Spaces are
available for vendors on the west side of High
Street directly in front of the businesses
between 3489-3535 N. High St. A limited
number of truck-based spots are also available
in an adjacent lot.
The market’s purpose is to promote and
enhance reciprocal relationships between
Clintonville residents, merchants and local farm
producers. The Clintonville Farmers’
Market strives to recapture the spirit of the
public market place that has connected consumers
and farmers for centuries. Each week
brings different activities. In 2008, the
market tent featured chefs cooking with local
produce, nutritional and food preservation
education, native plants, and musical groups.
A Spring Sprout Sale and a Thanksgiving Harvest
Market at season’s end are anticipated events.
Welcome to our
endeavor—we hope you “grow” from it!
