Ft. Wayne Farmers Market’s Spring Fling!
May 18th Event Ends FWFM Inaugural Winter Market

Ft. Wayne’s Farmers Market (FWFM) last winter market of its inaugural year will be Saturday May 18th from 9 AM to 1 PM. “This first year has been one of learning by trial and error, networking with some incredible individuals and organizations and laying the groundwork for a successful future for FWFM,” said Leigh Rowan, Market Coordinator. “While the winter market closes on Saturday, we are excited to continue to serve Fort Wayne and the region with our summer markets downtown as well as throughout the community. And we are looking forward to being back at Parkview Field next winter twice per month from 9 AM to 1 PM.”

Spring Fling vendors will be located on the concourse around home plate. Kid Zone will be open. Johnny will be making a visit to the market and to thank all of the shoppers for their support of Parkview Field and FWFM. Francine’s Friends Mobile Mammography Unit will be on-site. Our friends and colleagues from the Food Truck Association will be in attendance. Entertainment will be provided by the Jug Huffers.

Over 65 vendors will again be in attendance at the Spring Fling, all located along the concourse and just outside Parkview Field’s Main Gate at the corner of Ewing and Brackenridge. FWFM is proud to offer organic produce and food as well as several selections for those with special dietary needs or restrictions including vegetarian, vegan, paleo, sugar-free and gluten-free.
