The market is located at 5920 NW 13th Street in Gainesville, Florida at the corner of State Road 121 (NW 13th St), and U.S. 441 in an open air metal pavilion. We're on RTS route 8 with convenient hourly bus service on Saturdays. Handicap accessible restroom facilities are provided. Parking is available in a paved lot adjacent to the building, in a grassy lot behind the building, and in the Alachua County Tag Office lot.

The Alachua County Farmers' Market (ACFM), is open every Saturday, year-round, from 8:30 am to 1:00 pm or until all products are sold, whichever comes first. During the peak harvest season, generally April through July, a satellite market is also open on Tuesdays from 2:00 pm to dusk in the Butler Plaza parking lot on SW Archer Road in front of Goodys.

During the 2008 Summer Season, the Satellite Market at Butler Plaza will be open on Tuesdays from 2:00 pm to dusk, dependent on customer demand. Please contact the Market to confirm dates. In response to many requests from our Elder patrons, the U.S. 441 Market will also be opened on Tuesday afternoons to accommodate increase Elder demand. Both Markets' hours will be posted on the website on a biweekly basis, or call 352-371-8236 to obtain information.

While visiting the market is always fun, several special events with live music and food sampling designed to enhance your enjoyment are held throughout the year. Be sure to check out what's coming up.

The Alachua County Farmers Market - the only way to get fresher produce is to grow it yourself.
