Great Local Food is On Its Way!
The market begins this Wednesday for its second year in our space at Westport Road and Wyoming Street, three blocks east of State Line. We are so grateful to Emmanuel Lutheran Church for offering their auxillary lot again for the neighborhood market. Look forward to new or returning additions to the WPFM this season; including new vendors, the Beans and Greens Program, a monthly raffle for exciting prizes, and arts and crafts for the young and old.
We are so happy to have these wonderful perennial favorites back this season...
New folks this week!!! - Rebecca of Soap Mom

This year we are excited to be a part of Beans and Greens! This is a Kansas City program which allows those with SNAP cards/ food stamps to get double the amount of fresh food for their dollar from farmers' markets. Using our little machine, we will also be able to accept debit cards at the market. We are still waiting for the feds to send us the card reader, so you may have to wait until a Wednesday in the near future to utilize these resources at WPFM.

As an all local market, expect to see the wealth of choices grow at the market as the season warms up.
The Westport Plaza Farmers' Market is Kansas City’s only midweek market providing organic and sustainably grown local produce and farm products. You'll find grass fed beef, free range eggs and lamb, raw honey, heirloom tomatoes, hot peppers, vibrant greens, breads and sweet baked goods from homegrown and ground wheat, cut flowers and live music. Stop by after work near the Plaza, Westport, the KU Medical Center or anywhere in midtown KC. Talk with the farmers as you stock up for the week. If you live in the neighborhood, stroll on over and bring the family! New this year: Vendors will be accepting Misouri Food Stamp cards for double their value, thanks to the Beans and Greens Program . The market will also be accepting debit cards for those who forget to bring cash. Wednesdays from 4:30-7:30, May 4th through October 12th. |
