New Castle County Farmers Markets

Farmers Market Season is One of Our Favorite Seasons!

By Wilmington-New Castle Macaroni KID March 5, 2024

It's almost farmers' market season and pick-your-own time in Wilmington, DE!

We love supporting our local farmers and buying locally-grown produce and goods. Plus, it's fun for the whole family to visit a pick-your-own (PYO) farm or a farmers market in Wilmington, DE.




Farmers markets in Wilmington typically open for the season in May and last until October/November. Before heading out to farmers markets or farms in Wilmington, DE, remember:

  • Pick-your-own farms can sometimes change hours on short notice dependent on weather, produce availability, and other factors. It's best to call ahead to ensure pick-your-own is available that day. Prices can also change from day to day.
  • Bring containers or bags to avoid any extra charges! 
  • Bring cash as some Wilmington farmer market stands and pick-your-own farms don't take credit cards.
