Brookside Farmer’s Market

Saturday September 14, 2024, 9-11am
Missouri Organic & Recycling booth
HJ’s Community Center, 6425 Wornall Rd, Kansas City, MO 64113
Not just another produce market, the Brookside Farmers’ Market is a community. The market is a bridge between Kansas Citians and their local food source. Those who grow, raise or make every product are the ones who sell it to you directly. Everything sources from within 125 miles of Kansas City. Most importantly, our vendors are committed to practices that steward our soil, water, and natural resources. Be sure to stop by between 9-11am to see Stan Slaughter perform his original songs about earth stewardship.
