The 2026 Lima Farmers Market season has come to an end, and we are overwhelmingly joyful about how the much market has grown since our initial move to UNOH back in 2023! 😁 The vision of our market is to create a community space for connection, business development, food education and food access, and we couldn’t accomplish this without each and every individual involved!
This season, the market hosted over 50 rotating small businesses with about 20 of those vendors attending weekly. Rain or shine, our vendors were present and committed to being a reliable source of fresh produce and goods for the community, and for that we are so grateful! Our dedicated vendors have truly increased the value and effectiveness of the Lima Farmers Market 🧑🌾
Lima community, we can’t thank you enough for the support you showed us this year! On average, the market served over 1,000 community members weekly, with new customers joining us each week. To each and every person who attended the market this season, we greatly appreciate your attendance, feedback, and word-of-mouth sharing that allowed for the tremendous growth we saw this year 👏
Additionally, the Lima Farmers Market is sponsored by Mercy Health, Nutrien Ag Solutions, Activate Allen County, University of Northwestern Ohio, Cenovus, and the Lima/Allen County Chamber of Commerce. Each one of these sponsors has been instrumental in bringing the market to life in this Lima Community. We are so grateful for their support, guidance, and involvement in the Lima Farmers Market 🌱
Thank you, Lima, for your commitment and support this market season! We can’t wait to see you next season 💚
