About the Market
Background
Located at the foot of the Jefferson Avenue Footbridge, the country's longest pedestrian footbridge still in use, the C-Street Market has become a cherished spot for both vendors and shoppers. Operating from April to October, it provides a more intimate and leisurely alternative to larger markets, fostering a sense of community and connection.
Practices
Vendors at the C-Street Market typically include small-scale farmers who bring freshly harvested fruits and vegetables, fresh ranch eggs, and organic produce. The market also features free-range fowl and garden-grown flowers, emphasizing local and artisanal production methods.
The Rest
The market accepts EBT and Debit transactions, making it accessible to a wider range of shoppers. Visitors can enjoy not only the diverse array of goods but also the friendly atmosphere, often enhanced by local musicians. Vendor fees are $150 for the entire season or $10 for a single Saturday.
