When the weather gets warm, Rock Springs residents flock to the farmers market downtown.

The Rock Springs Farmers Market is held at Bunning Park on Evan’s Street each year, and the organizers of the Market ensure that the event remains a family-friendly affair.

The Farmers Market is usually held every Thursday between July and August. Like similar events in other cities, the primary focus of the Rock Springs Farmers Market is its wide assortment of fresh fruits and vegetables, which are grown and marketed by farmers who are part of the Rock Springs community.

By purchasing the fruits and vegetables of those local growers, Rock Springs residents get to meet the people responsible for creating their food, and they support fellow members of the Rock Springs family while receiving the freshest produce possible. Unlike similar events in other cities, the Rock Springs Farmers Market caters to the entire family.

The Market offers fun active events for younger children like its arts and crafts and horse-drawn carriage rides. There are also historic attractions geared more toward older attendees, such as the Union Pacific railroad car, which relates to the importance of the railroad and coal industries that were critical to the formation of Rock Springs.
