Farmers Market Vendor Applications Open for 2026
Kansas City residents and visitors can enjoy four Hyde Park Farmers Markets this year on Sundays, May 31, June 21, Sept 6, and Oct 11, 2026.
Hyde Park Farmers Market is a volunteer-led, family-friendly neighborhood market series in Gillham Park that brings together Kansas City area growers, makers, and small businesses. We are looking for vendors to supply fresh, locally-grown produce, plants, flowers, baked goods, and local artisan items.
The market creates a welcoming place for neighbors to connect, support local entrepreneurs, and enjoy kid-friendly activities in a beautiful park setting.
Building on the success of the 2025 Hyde Park Pop-Up Farmers Market, the 2026 series aims to strengthen community ties while celebrating Kansas City’s agriculture, arts, small business, and creative scene without passing on costs to vendors. There are no fees for vendor participation.
Apply now. Vendor registration opens March 1 and closes March 31, 2026.
