As we lean into our Spring issue, we wanted to bring you something practical, timely, and perfectly aligned with the season — a guide to the farmers markets across Northwest Arkansas that are opening back up this spring and continuing through the summer months.

Spring invites us outside. It encourages fresh starts, seasonal meals, and gathering with friends and neighbors. Farmers markets are a natural extension of that rhythm — offering fresh produce, local meats, artisan breads, handmade goods, and the simple joy of supporting the people who grow and create right here in our region.

Here is a guide to several of the most popular markets across Northwest Arkansas, along with where you can find more information:
