The season starts April 18th!
The season lasts from April to October. We divide it into three sessions. If you apply as a vendor you'll be asked which session you want to attend. Saturday and Wednesday markets have different start/end dates, but they both fall on the same week.
We have two markets every week on the Bentonville Square. Our biggest one is on Saturdays from 7:30am to 1pm and Wednesdays is a smaller tight-knit market. We've got you covered all through-out the week.
We do events at our market as a way to bring more people to support our farmers and crafters. Everything we do must boil down to them. Even when dogs are all over the square during Dog Days, we do it so vendors can make a living. See the schedule below for more info on these events.
We all know that a great way to promote your brand is to sponsor something awesome. This event will be no exception. If you'd like to support the community by lending us a financial helping hand, talk to our Executive Director Andrew Heath.
Our market doesn't last all year, but our app does! You can have access to your favorite farmers market goods and order them when you want very easily. During the Market season you can pick your orders up on the square at our office and in the off season at the Parks & Rec building on A Street. It's across from First Baptist Church. Download it now and see what
It doesn't take long! We're all filled up for season vendors, but that doesn't mean you're out of luck. You can still apply for as a Daily Vendor which means you come to one market at a time. To get in on that sweet goodness apply below!

It’s that time of year again! We’re turning the Square into a neighborhood block party to celebrate the end of summer and the school season ahead. Come learn about the many different opportunities for school-aged children while enjoying live music, food trucks, and interactive activities for all!
Last year we combined all the cultures we could into performances for the MainStage, but this year we're going a step further and bringing food & art into the celebration.
Pets all over the Square! It'll be like Dog Days but even more wild with animals of all kinds!

As a nonprofit ourselves, we think it's important to highlight all the organizations doing great things in the area. We gather as many nonprofits as we can on 2nd Street so you can learn more from them and support one if possible.
In addition to all our great farmers and crafters, artists decorate their booths with the art they work so hard on. Come browse or buy something incredible and support local artists.
