SATURDAY Tucson Farmers’ Market at Maynard’s
In conjunction with Maynard’s Market & Kitchen, the Tucson Farmers’ Market is ready to launch its newest market celebrating all local and fresh produce, cottage goods and ready-made foods from Maynard’s Market. The farmers’ market is situated downtown at The Depot, next to Maynard’s Kitchen and across the street from local landmark Hotel Congress. This timeless, historic building creates a vibrant setting for the Tucson Farmers’ Market and it’s surrounding neighborhoods.
The Tucson Farmers’ Market at Maynard’s will be bringing the freshest possible foods direct to your table from the farmers themselves. Join us every Saturday morning as we celebrate Tucson’s long standing agricultural traditions in a setting that mirrors our local culture and history. As you peruse the many booths and fill your baskets with fresh produce and baked goods, stop to admire the statues of Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday, commemorating the shootout that took place on these very tracks. Or, visit the Southern Arizona Transportation Museum and Locomotive #1673 at the west end, celebrating the railroad that transformed life in Tucson–a railroad that continues to operate today.
We look forward to expanding our markets, and to bringing the best of Tucson’s local goods to the busy downtown community. Meet us at the Market at Maynard’s!
