I have been a part of Market on Central since the very first season and it is a market like no other. It’s an event! The vendors offer quality products and there’s something for everyone. I’m proud to be a part of the Market and I can’t wait to meet new popcorn lover and see my returning customers this summer.

We were one of the first produce vendors to sign up for the Market on Central and we are glad we did! We enjoy seeing new faces each year in addition to our regular customers. We also enjoy educating people about new products and their nutritional value. We are also expanding into social media for the 2016 season to better meet our customer needs.

Market on Central is a relaxing, thoroughly enjoyable shopping experience! Thank you! Every vendor provided a unique product or food item and a friendly greeting for us. We enjoyed every booth and a few ''samples'' of tasty wines. We were able to bike to the market and use the Bike Valet for our bicycles and accessories. A perfect service. The Market was just a great Saturday morning stroll down Central. Thanks for the memories!

The Market on Central is one of the best markets in the area. I have to drive at least an hour to find a market that is comparable so missing the Market on Central is not an option. There are definitely favorites that I try to hit every single market; Eric’s Enchiladas to stock up on enchiladas, chips, and fresh salsa, Olde Boston’s for a breakfast burrito, Miller Creek Baking for sweets and bread for the week, and any of the fresh veggie stands depending on what I’m looking for that week. I also like to stop by the plant vendor, the soap stand, the reclaimed wood vendor where I found my dining room table that I absolutely LOVE, and if the girls are with me we have to stop and get either popcorn or cotton candy. Add to all of this the bike to market option, the live music and special events each week, and the overall amazing atmosphere that this market creates in Fort Dodge on a Saturday morning and I couldn’t recommend a better stop!
