Maryland market season: common questions
- When does farmers market season start in Maryland?
- Only 18 Maryland markets publish a season, which is too few to give a reliable state-wide answer, and we would rather say that than extrapolate from a handful. The month-by-month counts below show what those markets do report.
- When do Maryland farmers markets close for the year?
- 2 Maryland markets report trading year-round. For the rest, check the individual listing.
- What is in season in Maryland right now?
- Produce seasons shift with latitude, so the USDA's national guide is the honest answer rather than a state-specific claim we cannot source: spring brings asparagus, greens and rhubarb; summer berries, stone fruit, corn and tomatoes; autumn apples, squash and roots; winter citrus and storage crops. What Maryland markets themselves report selling is listed below.
