Frank & Ernest Markets is contracted by the Linden Hills Farmers' Market's Board of Directors to manage this market. The Linden Hills Farmers' Market opens its seventh year in 2020. Due to COVID 19, the LHFM will be offering a hybrid model exclusive to pre-sale with a pick-up market. We hope to offer a more typical market experience later in the season.
For more information on our plans for this market, and to learn how to participate in our pre-sales, see our site entitled "WHAT NOW."

Should we be able to return to a more typical market, we will contact prospective and current vendors. With this, application and registration pages are now located on the Linden Hills Farmers' Market's website >>
