Love is a Battlefield...Farmer's Market.



The outdoor Farmer's Market at the Battlefield mall is in it's 5th successful season. Springfield locals must be tuning into Dr. Oz- the increase in tents every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday morning are a sure sign that local, fresh produce is in demand! The farmer's market boasts a variety of farm fresh goods from grass fed bison to glazed sticky buns a la our often reclusive, but always friendly Amish neighbors. 

You can find airstream trailers featuring companies like Raised Right Meats.
Raised Right Meats stem from pastured, free range poultry fed non-GMO (genetically modified) grains. But, let's not stop at the mature chicken; even their eggs are born of pastured, non-GMO fed hens.

Come on down and breathe a sigh of relief knowing that you can stroll down the market filling up your weekly stock of meat, poultry, lamb, turkey, or pork knowing you won't be feeding your family antibiotics and growth stimulants. Way to go. You get a gold star for healthy living!


The Battlefield Farmer's Market at the Battlefield Mall is the largest Farmer's Market here in town. There is yet another one on C-Street under the foot bridge. However, it tends to be limited to a couple of tables with spreads of banana bread loaves and to my surprise an assortment of knives?! But, hey, this is the Show Me state. If there's a market for knives next to a pound of baby potatoes, who am I to judge? 

Show Me Your Springfield.

  1. Pets DO need salad. This teeny tiny sign is a powerful piece of advertising. Nice photo.
