We are thrilled to announce that the City of Kearney is officially taking the lead on our beloved community farmers market! We’re building on the foundation you know and love to create an even more vibrant weekly destination at the park.

This transition brings exciting new opportunities — like a rotating selection of premier food trucks every single week! Now, you can stock your pantry with local goods and grab a delicious dinner for the family all in one stop. Come see how we’re growing together!

Support Your Neighbors

Our local vendors are the heart of the market. This year, you can browse a bounty of fresh produce, flowers and bedding plants from area farmers and handcrafted soap, shampoos and cakes from local artisans. Whether you’re looking for farm-fresh eggs for your weekend breakfast or a one-of-a-kind gift, you’ll find it right here in our own backyard. Supporting the market means supporting the families and small businesses that make Kearney so special.

Dinner is Served

Forget about cooking on Thursday nights! Each week, we’ve host a rotating selection of three premier food trucks to satisfy every craving. From savory BBQ and gourmet tacos to sweet treats, there’s always something new to try. Grab your dinner and find a spot at the picnic tables or spread a blanket on the lawn for the perfect alfresco dining experience.

Make a Splash at Lions Park

While you shop and eat, the kids can stay cool and burn off some energy at the Lions Park Splash Pad. It’s the ultimate destination for summer fun—open until 8 p.m. making it the perfect companion to your market visit. With the updated playground equipment nearby, the park truly becomes the community’s living room every Thursday night.

Market Details:

When: Every Thursday, 4 – 7 p.m.

Where: Lions Memorial Park

Splash Pad Hours: 10 a.m. – 8 p.m.

Be sure to follow us on social media https://www.facebook.com/KearneyMOOfficial to see what food trucks will be there each week and feature vendor spotlights!

We can’t wait to see you under the shade trees at Lions Park. Come for the fresh finds, stay for the dinner, and enjoy the best of small-town living!
