Pre-Order Pick-Up Worthington Farmers Market
The Indoor Market Moves to a Drive-Through
With Governor DeWine’s orders to limit large group gatherings, the Worthington Farmers Market – which was currently meeting indoors at The Shops at Worthington Place – pivoted to an outdoor, drive-through market at the Worthington Community Center. You can order here from each vendor!
We are thrilled to be able to continue supporting local farmers and food-makers. Governor DeWine has deemed farmers markets essential, and moving to a drive-through format is the best and safest way to conduct the market at this time.
Every week we re-evaluate the procedures to make the market as fast and safe as possible.
When Will the Outdoor Market Resume?
There is no date set to re-open the outdoors farmers market in Old Worthington. We are constantly discussing it with city officials, merchants, and vendors, and will announce an opening date as soon as it is set.

Enter only from Wilson Bridge Road. (The Worthington Community Center address is 345 E. Wilson Bridge Rd.) See map below!
