Markets

Farmers Market on the Rum

Returning with a bounty of local flavor, this outdoor market sets up in Riverfront Memorial Park, with an indoor move to City Hall if weather requires it. As part of the extended season, look for up to 11 vendors offering fresh produce, baked goods, cottage foods, farmstead products, flowers, and more. The market spans 23 weeks across the year, and the selection grows as the season progresses. During the summer, the Rockin’ on the Rum concert series brings live music at the park beside the market, adding a festive soundtrack to an afternoon of local shopping.

Plant & Insect Diagnostic Clinic

Curious about what is nibbling on your plants, which weeds are showing up in the yard, or why a tree looks unwell? This clinic provides hands-on help from Master Gardeners who assess common landscape and gardening problems. Anoka County residents can use this service at no cost. Bring as many as three samples, such as weeds, insects, or damaged plant material, for identification and diagnosis of issues that may involve insects, diseases, or other causes. You will receive practical, research-based guidance that follows University of Minnesota recommendations to address most gardening and landscaping concerns.
