Baltimore Farmers' Market Accepting Applications for the 2025 Season
BOPA is proud to announce that the 48th Annual Baltimore Farmers’ Market is now accepting submissions for the 2025 Market season. The Baltimore Farmers’ Market is a producer-only market. That means we require our vendors to grow, make, or create what they sell. We also prioritize local vendors in our application process to ensure we’re providing local options for our shoppers.
The Market operates on Sundays from April through December, rain or shine, from 7:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m. There are applications for Farms, Food Vendors, Alcohol Vendors, and Artisans. The deadline for all 2025 applications is January 12, 2025. Click below to see all applications and guidelines.
