Phoenix

Downtown Phoenix Public Market runs year-round, every Saturday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m., in the Roosevelt Row arts district at 721 N.

Phoenix

Part of the Phoenix Public Market complex at 721 N.

Phoenix

This downtown Phoenix market runs Wednesdays, 10am to 2pm, from October through April at 1 W. Washington St. Vendors sell vegetables, baked goods, and handmade arts and crafts direct to shoppers on their lunch break, with an open-air stage on-site hosting midday performances during market hours.

Phoenix

Highland Food Hub, at 720 W Highland Ave in Phoenix, operates as a digital food court for online ordering and pickup — not a farmers market. The site runs more than a dozen restaurant kitchens under one roof, covering wings, tacos, birria, and noodles for delivery or walk-in pickup. Anyone expecting local produce vendors here will find a food hall instead.

Phoenix

This market sets up at Wesley Bolin Memorial Plaza, near the State Capitol at Washington and 17th streets in Phoenix, running seasonally from February through April.

Phoenix

Central City South Farmers' Market sets up at 7th Ave. and Buckeye in Phoenix, offering locally sourced produce, meats, dairy, and artisan goods to a part of the city with limited grocery access. Listed schedules vary by source, so it's worth confirming the current day and hours before making the trip.

Phoenix

This Wednesday market has run in the Town & Country Shops parking lot at 2021 E. Camelback Rd. for years, a fixture on a stretch of the Camelback Corridor that's been a Phoenix shopping landmark for over 50 years. Vendors sell organic produce, local specialty foods, and crafts.

Chef Vincent Guerithault's restaurant, Vincent's on Camelback, hosts this market in its own lot at 3930 E. Camelback Rd. Area growers set up for direct sales to the restaurant's weekend crowd, a longtime arrangement that's kept the market running for years rather than a one-off farm stand.

Phoenix

Saturday mornings, 7 to 11am, this market takes over the parking lot at 3930 E. Camelback Rd., right on Phoenix's restaurant-heavy Camelback Corridor. Shoppers headed to brunch nearby stop first for produce and other locally sourced goods before the lot fills up with weekend traffic.

Tempe

The Farmers Market @ ASU Tempe started in 2007 as a student sustainability project and still runs that way — an indoor market with about 20 vendors selling produce, baked goods, flowers, and other local goods grown by Arizona farmers. It operates during the fall and spring semesters, giving students and staff a weekly source of local food without leaving campus.

Scottsdale

This indoor market runs spring through fall inside the Seville shopping center at 7001 N. Scottsdale Rd., a change of pace from the Valley's outdoor lots. Vendors are small-scale growers, food producers, and craft artisans selling under a roof year-round hours don't require.

Scottsdale

A farmers market sets up at the Mercado Del Lago shopping plaza at 8320 N. Hayden Rd. in Scottsdale, alongside tenants like Jimmy John's and Altitude Coffee. Vendors sell produce, artisanal goods, and street food, though listed hours vary by source — worth a call to the plaza before making the trip.

Mesa Riverview Farmers Market runs every Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Mesa Riverview Shopping Center on N. Dobson Rd. Vendors sell fresh produce, artisanal foods, and handcrafted goods, connecting local growers directly with shoppers instead of going through a grocery distributor.

This Saturday market sits at the northwest corner of Loop 101 and Shea Boulevard, with hours that shift by season: 8am to 1pm in fall, 8am to noon through summer, and 9am to 2pm in winter and spring. Vendors sell grass-fed and all-natural meat, wild-caught seafood, and desserts made without gluten or artificial sweeteners, alongside the usual produce stands.

Peoria

Set up at the Peoria Sports Complex, this market runs Sundays, 10am to 2pm, spring through fall. Vendors sell fresh fruit and vegetables, baked goods, fresh meat, artisan goods, and even dog treats.

Peoria

Westbrook Village Association runs this market on the second Sunday of the month, 9am to 1pm, at its recreation center at 19251 N. Westbrook Pkwy. in Peoria. It's a smaller neighborhood event rather than a weekly market, built around the village's retiree community.

Cave Creek

This Cave Creek market runs seasonally in spring and fall at 28230 N. Tatum Blvd., with several vendors selling USDA-certified organic produce and meats. It's smaller than the Valley's year-round markets, built around Cave Creek's cooler shoulder-season weather.

Billed as a producers-only market, this Litchfield Park stand at 300 E. Wigwam Blvd. limits vendors to food that's actually grown or made locally, rather than resold produce. It's a smaller market built around that one rule.

Scottsdale

This north Scottsdale market runs spring through fall at 27500 N. Alma School Pkwy., near Reata Pass Steakhouse and the Greasewood Flats restaurant grounds. Vendors sell fresh fruit and vegetables to a crowd that mixes hikers off the nearby trails with regulars from the surrounding golf communities.

Sun City West

Corte Bella Farmers' Market sets up Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the breezeway and patio outside the Anacopa Restaurant at Corte Bella Country Club in Sun City West. Vendor lineups have included organic produce, specialty coffee, empanadas, tamales, kettle corn, and a knife-sharpening stand — more social gathering than straight produce stand.

Fountain Hills

Fountain Hills Farmers' Market runs Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., seasonally November through April, along the Avenue of the Fountains. More than 60 food vendors set up alongside the Art on the Avenue show, with gluten-free, vegan, and artisan bread options in the mix — order ahead by Monday noon if you want a loaf held for Wednesday pickup.

Carefree

Carefree Farmers' Market has run at the Sundial in downtown Carefree since 2001, open Fridays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., October through May.

Cave Creek

Cave Creek Farmers' & Crafts Market runs Thursdays, spring through fall, at 6424 E. Cave Creek Rd. Vendors sell fresh produce, pastries, and sauces alongside handcrafted goods and other artisan wares. It's organized by M&M Events, which requires vendors to carry at least $1 million in general liability insurance — a sign of how seriously the market is run.

Superstition Farm, a working family dairy in Mesa, hosts this market every Thursday, 4:30 to 7:30pm, year-round at 3440 S. Hawes Rd. Vendors offer free samples to try before you buy, and cash, credit, and debit are all accepted. Visitors can also stop by the farm's petting zoo or grab milk, cheese, and ice cream from Udder Delights on the same trip.

JJ's Old West Flea Market at 9705 E. Apache Trail in Mesa combines a traditional flea market with a farmers market, selling produce, meat, and specialty goods from regional farms and makers alongside the usual flea-market mix.
