De Soto Farmers Market is a program run by Get Healthy De Soto, a non-profit organization dedicated to having a long-lasting positive impact on the health and safety of the De Soto community by encouraging healthy lifestyle choices, through programs promoting physical activity, healthy nutrition, weight control and disease and injury prevention. The Market was established in 2009 as a 100% producer vendor market bringing in fresh produce, baked goods, and artisan wares from within a 70 mile radius of De Soto, MO. We have 1st Saturday Chef at the Market, cooking demos that help people know how to cook the fresh produce provided by our market. We have 3rd Saturday Kids Mart where kids under 16 bring their fresh produce, baked good and artisan wares. We have live music every Saturday. We are an EBT food benefit site, participating in Double Up Food Bucks. We also have a grant sponsored Power of Produce club which gives out $2 tokens to kids 4-12 and a new Senior Produce Club, adults 65 and older get $5 tokens for fresh fruits and veggies. We are the Saturday Place to be in Southern Jefferson County.
It is the Saturday morning place to be. I like the friendliness of the market vendors, the Market Master and volunteers are very helpful in locating the vendors with the products I want. Love the live music each week. It is always clean and neat before, during and after the market.
Thank you Bob,
We love our market and rely of friends like you shopping our vendors and being a good neighbor!
See you Saturday!
