The Allen County Farmers' Market is an open air market on the southeast corner of the Iola square where vendors set up in the parking spots and sell to shoppers in the middle of the barricaded street. Vision and debit cards are accepted. Five cooking demonstrations are shared during the season as well as 3-4 pressure canner gauge testings by the Extension agent. Community organizations can sign up for either of the 2 free spots to distribute information or raise funds for their cause. Local talent, musicians and entertainers perform weekly during the season. A Reading Roundup, sponsored by Allen County Farm Bureau Association, is hosted by Allen County 4-Hers and Scouts for children who visit the market with their parents. The 5:30-7:00 pm market allows for shoppers to take in the City Band Concert that follows at 8 pm. Come enjoy Thursday evening on the Iola square!
