Hey! The Citiparks East Liberty Farmer’s market used to be pretty vibrant when it was over near the corner of N. Euclid & Station Street, but since it was moved to Liberty Green Park it has gotten kinda sad. Last year it felt like a bit of a death spiral. There weren’t that many vendors to start with so less and less people went there and thus as the season progressed there were less and less vendors to the point that by late fall the whole thing was on the verge of failing. So get out there! Today is opening day!

This season, we’ll have a rotating schedule of weekly markets in Squirrel Hill, the East End, Carrick and the Northside. A reminder: All four CitiParks Farmers Markets accept food stamps (SNAP), credit, and debit cards as part of Just Harvest’s Fresh Access program. SNAP shoppers can get fresh, nutritious and locally grown food, including produce, meat, dairy, bread and baked goods, produce plants, seeds and honey. Food Bucks give Fresh Access food stamp shoppers extra money to spend on fruits and vegetables. For every $5 spent in food stamps, users receive an extra $2 to spend on produce.
