FMO provides vendors from a 150-mile radius of Springfield, MO, the opportunity to bring the best from the county to the city. Additionally, consumers have the ability to 'Put a Face to Their Food' each week with a visit to the market.
In July 2013, FMO became the first farmers market in the region to be housed in a year-round pavilion, inside the Farmers Park Development. The pavilion serves as an open air facility when the weather is pleasant, with fans and a kitchen. During the winter months the pavilion is furnished with roll down doors and radiant heat inside, making the market a year-round facility.
FMO has been named the Number 6 Farmers Market in the County in 2015 by Food52.com and was voted as the Best Farmers Market in 2015 by Feast Magazine.
