Father's Day Weekend Farmers Market 6/15/2024

Enjoy the Clear Lake Farmers Market this Fathers Day Weekend!

As you travel up to the North Iowa area, join us this Father’s Day weekend at the Clear Lake Farmers Market on June 15th, 2024 from 9:00 AM to NOON in the parking lot of the Surf Ballroom & Museum. If you’re still looking for an awesome gift for your dad, we’ll have vendors offering everything you need for your weekend grill-out. When you visit, you’ll be able to find fresh baked buns (that’s us!), meat, seasoning, cheese, crisp lettuce, crunchy pickles -everything you’d need for the best burgers. There’ll also be intricate woodwork, cold-brew coffee, golf supplies, and more available from 50+ vendors, along with live music and kids activities!

Here’s what we’re bringing*:

Breads

Scones

Blueberry LIMITED TIME!
Chocolate Cherry

Pies

Jams

Additional Food Items

*List subject to change

This list only states what we know we’re bringing for sure (we say “for sure” with the assumption that nothing crazy will happen, like flooded roads, epic tornados, or the appearance of the four horsemen 🤪). Although, I guess we can’t say too much about tornados stopping us. We did vend at the Mason City Farmers Market during a tornado watch all the way until the sirens started blaring in town… but, that’s another story. While writing this, we’re pretty sure this is everything we’re bringing. If you have any specific requests, call us! Our number is on our ‘Contact’ page.

Heads up: we’re coming even if it rains

As you may know, this Father’s Day weekend farmers market has a chance of getting rained on. As one of the wonderful people who visits us in Clear Lake, we want to remind you that rain or shine, we’ll be there this week! The sourdough has started its long ferment and there’s no going back now. So, we’re coming on Saturday prepared for anything and with all our usual delicious artisan breads (plus a few extras) and our specialty jams. So, as long as you keep coming, we’ll keep bringing all the good stuff! You are coming, right?!😄

Heads up: we’ve moved

A few more people found us at the market last week for the first time since we moved! It was fun to catch up with everyone after the winter. This is my reminder to those who missed us, that we’re in a new spot. Traditionally, our booth has been next to the sidewalk and near the music (the north-east side) -we aren’t in that spot anymore! Instead, you’ll find us on the other end of the market, at the far side, away from the music (the south side). If you need a map to visualize and see this change, there’s one linked at the end of this post. Note: Only our booth within the market is moving- the Clear Lake Farmers Market is still in the Surf Ballroom parking lot.

Heads up: road construction

We’ve had a great few weeks inside the Clear Lake Farmers Market! Thank you for being patient and flexible with the road construction around the Surf Ballroom. The farmers market is continuing to keep an eye on where construction is each week and making adjustments as necessary. This week, the whole market will be shifted 18 feet west (further away from the sidewalk). The layout will be the same as past weeks, and nothing will change about your shopping experience -it’s just going to be further away from the street. Road work is no fun to drive around, but on the bright side, the market isn’t cancelled!

Enjoy your Father’s Day weekend at the farmers market

Father’s Day weekend means it’s easy to get busy and forget that farmers markets are in season. But, don’t let that stop you from coming -it’s the perfect opportunity to buy that one pie he eyeballs all the time, but never actually gets. Or those caramel pecan rolls. Or that jalapeño focaccia bread. Honestly, the number of times we’ve seen fathers make a comment like “That one looks good to me, but get whatever you and the kids will eat, babe” is incredible! So, why not treat your incredible guy to that delicious food he’s been craving. We’re in a new spot on the south side of the market, right next to the Surf Ballroom, and we’re still providing the delicious farmers market foods you know and love. 😄

Join us for another farmers market this Father’s Day Weekend!

We’re so excited that the market season is upon us, and we hope you’ll join us this Father’s Day weekend for the farmers market. We’ll be in the Surf Ballroom parking lot from 9 AM until noon. The Clear Lake Farmers Market is the largest producer-only market in North Iowa and it’s definitely worth a stop. Feel free to put it in your calendar, and we’ll see you there!

As promised, here’s the link for the interactive map so you can find all your favorite vendors at the market this year: http://www.clearlakefarmersmarket.com/for-customers/ We know you’ll find your way around, and we can’t wait to see you Saturday!
