You can find an amazing assortment of fresh veggies, fruits, flowers, honey, baked goods, and more every Saturday Morning during our 2025 season from May 3rd to October 11th! We’ll be up and running from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., and we can’t wait to see you there! The Market is located near the intersection of Auburn and North Main.
The North End City Market is one of Rockford’s oldest running farmers markets and has been a community staple for over 20 years! A group of farmers, makers, and growers had been meeting in the same parking lot behind the Norwegian for years and were known lovingly by the community as The North End Commons Farmers Market. In 2015, we partnered with this group of vendors (some of them are still vending with us today!), helped move the Market to a more visible parking lot across the street, and welcomed them to the Rockford City Market family.
While our Friday Night Rockford City Market emphasizes downtown Rockford, local food trucks & breweries, and some favorite local musicians, in addition to local produce vendors, the North End City Market strives to highlight and celebrate our local farmers and growers. It’s smaller than its Friday Night peer, but it’s full of community, history, heart, and nourishing food.

Bring your dog along to the North End City Market! We love to see them — many of the vendors keep dog treats at their booths to hand out to all our canine patrons!
