With “permissions” in place, we will start fundraising for a year-round farmers market to host the Market on Military, snow, rain or shine!
Jessie Lyn wrote a great article in the GB Press Gazette about our exciting project: https://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/story/news/local/2025/05/15/military-avenue-farmers-market-seeks-permanent-home-in-green-bay-park/83633738007/
After years of bouncing around with a summer and winter market, we know that Green Bay’s west side Murphy Park, will be the perfect home for us! Our hunt for the right location took us up and down the Military Avenue Business Improvement District (Along Military Avenue from roughly Dousman St. to Lombardi Ave.)
Our nineth year of hosting a local farmers market just started this June 5th in the old Shopko parking lot for the second year.
Concept design by Somerville Architects & Engineers.
We plan for an active partnership with the City of Green Bay Parks and Recreation Department who intends on using the building for several indoor activities, may even be Pickleball! The building aims to support the needs of the neighborhoods and park users.
Stay tuned for our fundraising events! Any ideas or suggestions, please let us know. Email to Leah Weycker at Director@militaryave.org.
