This Indoor Farmers Market Is The Place To Spend Your Weekend

There’s a farmers market in Iowa that never gets rained out. It’s open even when the snow is drifting and the gardens are frozen and the wind chill is a number you’d rather forget. The Davenport Freight House Farmers Market is the only market of its kind in the Midwest and here, the weather’s always perfect. While the market has outdoor stalls during the growing season, it has an indoor space that’s open every season.

The market is open on Saturdays and Sundays so it’s the ideal weekend destination in Davenport. Here’s what you need to know about the Davenport Freight House Farmers Market.

The market is located in downtown Davenport along the Mississippi Riverfront. The market is anchored by the historic Freight House Building. It was built in 1917 to handle increased freight traffic in Davenport before the country entered World War I.
