Sycamore Farmers Market
Set on the front lawn of the DeKalb County History Center, the Sycamore Farmers Market highlights local agriculture, handmade goods, food, music, and community. Browse a rotating selection of local vendors offering fresh produce, flowers, baked goods, honey, meats, specialty foods, beverages, and handmade art and crafts. After shopping, explore the We the People of DeKalb County exhibit or stop by the gift shop. Stay for live music and enjoy a cocktail or mocktail from MVPs Sport Bar, with a portion of sales supporting the History Center. Seating is limited, so consider bringing a blanket or chair if you plan to relax and listen to the music, and nearby residents are encouraged to bike to the History Center.
