The Beaver Dam Community Farmers Market is currently looking for vendors, especially produce growers, food trucks, musicians, and community sponsors for the 2026 season.

Our market runs from the last weekend of May through the last weekend of September and brings the community together each week to shop local, support small businesses, and enjoy time downtown.

Vendors and food trucks benefit from a steady flow of local shoppers and the opportunity to grow their customer base. Musicians help create the welcoming atmosphere that makes market mornings special.

We are also seeking community sponsors who want to support local agriculture, small businesses, and family friendly events while receiving recognition throughout the season.

If you are interested in participating this year, please reach out or plan to attend the vendor meeting Monday, March 16 at 6:00 PM at Beaver Dam City Hall.

Let’s make the 2026 season the best one yet!
