The Market at 15th & High


Thu, May 27–Thu, Oct 28, 2010  |  4:00–7:00PM
Wexner Center Plaza

Fresh just got closer. The Market at 15th & High, a new outdoor farmers' market on the Wexner Center Plaza, brings fresh local seasonal goodness to the Ohio State campus.

Buzz has been building about the market, and many farmers sold out on the opening day. Stop on by and pick up some ripe Ohio berries, field greens and green beans, fresh-cut flowers, as well as baked goods, artisan cheeses, meats, and specialty items. The market is open Thursdays through October 28th, and the selections of produce and other products each week will change depending on what’s ripe for picking and ready for eating.

The market is held rain or shine, and 100% of the profits go directly to local farmers. Food stamps and W.I.C. are accepted by some vendors, and produce is donated to the food pantry at Neighborhood Services following each market. A few vendors are also participating in CSAs—community-supported agriculture, in which farmers deliver shares of produce on a weekly basis to subscribers—with the market serving as a pickup spot for their subscribers.

Cosponsored by The Wayward Seed Farm and the Wexner Center for the Arts.
