Tuesday Local Market

Offers locally grown fresh vegetables, fruits, and herbs; locally produced honey; homemade canned goods; beef and other meats; homemade baked goods, including sourdough items; and other foods; arts and crafts; and live music on Tuesdays from 3 to 7 p.m., mid-June through late September.

This farmers’ market dates back about 20 years. It was initially named the Laramie Local Community Market, and later became the Thursday Local Market. Organizers made the tough decision to close the market in 2022, because of the COVID pandemic. But in early 2024, a group of volunteers came together to revitalize the market. Based on community input, they changed the market day from Thursday to Tuesday.

Manager for the revitalized market is BreeAnna Mustad, a local artist who brings to the market “oodles of experience in the hospitality industry, and with enthusiasm and a love for community.”
