Parking: Let's talk about it 🚗

Our Info Booth volunteers definitely get a frustrated earful about parking during peak season. We know it's messy, and as we've grown it's become more and more difficult to navigate a less-than-perfect parking situation.

For those who have capacity, we have some suggested alternatives! There's an overflow lot available just across Henry but please be careful crossing the road there; leave yourself plenty of distance from oncoming traffic.

Alternatively, consider parking up on Broadway and utilizing the pedestrian Bridge that crosses over Landmarks (bonus, this puts you in the perfect position to hop down Broadway to visit all our lovely brick and mortar retailers on your way back to the car!)

Another option is to park by the Amphitheater, assuming there's no event that morning, and walk up and over the berm on the pedestrian pathway. Please note this option is not available on September 19th due to incoming vendors during the Mississippi Earthtones Festival!

Overall, we appreciate those that can parking further away to allow front spaces for those who are not as mobile. And it goes without saying but we'll say it anyway: do not park in disabled parking spaces at the front of the lot if you do not have a tag. We also do not allow "standing" in the front row along the backside of the vendors while waiting for someone to grab a quick item or three. If someone is blocking you in and refusing to move, please let the Info Booth know and we'll handle it.

We'll see you at 8am! Please stay safe in the heat today 😎

Due to high heat, todays Market at Wood River has been canceled, hopefully Saturday's weather will be better to see you at Alton Farmers Market.

Well- we hate to do it!
After consulting with the Fire Department we have decided to cancel tomorrow’s market due to this crazy heat. The safety of our vendors and patrons are way too important!
It should not be 100 degrees in September.
We are sorry for the inconvenience, but we will see you next week!
