Additional Information: Opening on May 4, 2024, and continues through October 26. Market hours are 8-Noon every Saturday around the historic courthouse on the square in downtown Murfreesboro. The Saturday Market has been a feature of downtown Murfreesboro for 13 years and is a gathering place for customers who come for farm fresh food and a chance to meet friends and neighbors. We have 67 vendor spots each Saturday with a focus on farm-raised produce and meat that is producer grown and raised. The market offers seasonal farm produce, locally raised beef, pork, and poultry, baked goods, prepared foods, seasonal cut flowers, perennials, and trees. We also feature local artisans/crafters throughout the year selling homemade soaps, fabric crafts, artwork, woodworking, and ceramics. Music is provided by local musicians every Saturday. We are pleased to have a continuing partnership with the Rutherford County Master Gardeners who come to the market twice a month to share gardening tips with market customers and activities for children. We also have a Balloon Artist to provide entertainment. Another community partnership is with The Friends of the Linebaugh Library, who offer a book giveaway for children twice during the season and provide information about library services. These community connections are a central part of the Market's mission, as we are governed by the Main Street Murfreesboro nonprofit organization. We are also a proud supporter of Pick Tn Products.
