Omaha Farmers Market - Aksarben

I forgot to get cabbage at the Old Market farmers market on Saturday, so came to Aksarben on Sunday. Be mindful that the hours are not exactly the same.The advantages of this one is that there is free parking, and the ground is not uneven so it's easier to walk.There are a lot of vendors. It's a large area and there are a LOT of people. So many things to browse and buy. It's really nice, though personally I prefer the downtown one, because I would rather just be downtown anyway.

I try to go every Sunday and I am always amazed at which vendors are there. So many fresh options and new things to see. I like how convenient the parking is as well as the inner rail food hall being just around the corner!!

Fresh vegetables..fresh salsa and chips absolutely delicious, (Erica's booth) and the fresh jalapeño Jack, Asiago Garlic bread..."shut up" baked this morning ...Shopped and walked our poodle and Yorkie.. win win

This farmers market has really stepped up their game. The vendors are diverse and offer a ton of great local items!! From produce to popcorn lemonade soap books etc. it's for everyone!! Dog friendly, stroller friendly, and kid friendly it could be a weekly staple for some families. I am glad this year it's back in the village vs by Baxter arena. Highly recommend checking out DJs or inner rail after you shop!

This was my frist time at the farmers market in so long and it exceeded my expectations! Got great, free parking and was able to find our way easily. There was a huge variety of vendors. Went to look for the Omaha Bagel Co. and they sold out so quickly! Ended up getting some cat grass and other trinkets. Will def. go again!

Coming to this farmers market in Aksarben Village has quickly become a staple in my Sunday reset routine! Even if I don't always buy something, I really enjoy walking around and exploring all of the vendors and seeing what local farmers, artisans, etc. have to offer. I prefer this location to the Old Market one because it is much larger and more easily accessible in terms of parking. Aksarben Village always has space in their many parking garages. The market itself has a HUGE variety, so whether you're looking for produce, meat, bread, coffee, lemonade (definitely recommend), or art (and more!), this is a great place to shop. Items are reasonably priced as well, though of course there is sometimes a premium for local quality. I will say that it has been very crowded in my experience, which can be overwhelming and make it a bit difficult to get around at times, but I can hardly blame everyone for wanting to be there. Get ready to spend time in the sun, but there are small areas of shade for respite. I have had nothing but pleasant interactions here, whether it be with vendors or fellow patrons!

This market has lots of produce but also lots of homemade stuff! Loved the fresh flower bouquets! You can plan on eating breakfast there with all the bakery options or fresh food to eat!

The Aksarben farmer's market is a little larger than the Old Market location, bringing in a whole new crowd from West Omaha that might not be willing to drive to Downtown on a Saturday. I like that for me, there are two main farmer's markets within 15 mins of our house, and if I have work on a Saturday, there is an option for me for Sunday. Aksarben's location seems to have more things for dogs, including more tents selling dog related items and lots of water for them to drink (and play in during hot days). We absolutely love that!There are seasonal items as far as produce and also stands for food made to order and crafts. It's an awesome way to support local, and also get out and be part of the community. I love that we are dog friendly here in Omaha, as other cities I have visited have strict no animal policies.The market runs from May to Oct, so visitors and locals have many opportunities to come and shop. Also, there are many surrounding businesses to have brunch or grab a snack and bite before or during your vist-with plenty of parking and green space.

Great time at the market, atmosphere was cool lots of vendors. Short distance from our hotel

I enjoyed my experience at this market. It was crowded and I had taken my dog. My dog seemed to be overwhelmed by the experience (which is not like her). Unfortunately her behavior there encouraged me to arrange a vet visit and my poor pup has double ear infections . I plan to attend again once she has recovered and I'm sure we both will have a great experience. Many booths I wanted to visit but couldn't. Especially the local honey booth.
