The best of local in the best of locale.


24 years promoting farm fresh and local food along the shores of Lake Michigan, we present the South Shore Farmers’ Market, Milwaukee.

JUNE 18 – OCT 29, 2022


Welcome to the 2022 South Shore Farmers’ Market Season!

On behalf of the planning committee and managers we would like to invite you to the 2022 South Shore Farmers’ Market (SSFM)! We are looking forward to a fantastic season with full slate of local entertainment and over 40 local agriculture and food vendors and including a few new offerings…

Alsum Sweet Corn, Cedar Teeth, Creme de Liqueur, Juan’s Fantastic Fruit, La Finca, Old Town Serbian & Sabrosa Café

New vendors

While we welcome new vendors, we say bittersweet goodbyes to two long-time friends, vendors Dolly Mertens of Wild Flower Bakery (1998), and Phil Herrin of Herrin Farms (2001). We wish them the best in their retirement! In other shopping news, SNAP and EBT tokens will be available again this year at the Bay View Community Center tent within the market. Connect with us on our Facebook and Instagram for up-to-date information and to share your market day experiences!

A big thank you goes out to our past and current sponsors especially Tenuta’s Italian Restaurant, and new sponsor, Trinidad Home Remodeling!  

We also want to recognize the planning committee and managers for working to deliver a market providing a gathering place for our community, with the freshest foods and the best entertainment, and in the safest possible way. 

While many of our COVID Compliance guidelines have been lifted, as we move toward our new normal, we are still very aware of the concerns that linger around public health and safety. Therefore, we welcome masks and remain mindful of social distancing. In addition, we do allow pets, but owners must be respectful of lanes of traffic and keep dogs on a short lead, lest you be asked to stand outside the market.

We look forward to seeing you at the market!
