It All Started With

The Brookfield Farmers’ Market was created by a group of volunteers who wanted to establish a market for local farm produce in Brookfield. The idea had been a part of the Brookfield Master Plan, and in 1990, the volunteer group obtained the necessary approvals and permits to make it happen. The Brookfield Civic Center Farmers’ Market opened in 1991, with a half dozen farmers and was staffed by Brookfield resident volunteers.

FARMERS’ MARKET TODAY ON OUR 28TH YEAR

Today after 27 years of operation the market is thriving. It has become not only a place where residents can purchase fresh Wisconsin grown products, but it has also become a Saturday morning meeting place for many of the residents. It is a Saturday morning ritual for Brookfield residents and customers are drawn from many surrounding communities. The market merchants provide quality Wisconsin grown products that are sold at reasonable prices. Many of the farmers have been at the market for well over 10 years. The market continues to grow in size and popularity
