Fancy a Trip to the Farmers Market?

The weather in Pittsburgh is steadily warming up and finally showing signs of staying that way. For a city like ours, it seems like there is so much more to do when we’re able to get back outdoors. One of those warm-weather activities is the return of farmers markets all across the city. Check out these markets which are all super close to home!


1.    Bloomfield Saturday Market
5050 Liberty Ave

The Bloomfield Saturday Market is located in the heart of the neighborhood along Liberty Ave and runs from May through November.

They also support farmers and small business owners through incentive programs, educational opportunities and neighborhood outreach.

3.    East Liberty Farmer’s Market
