Every Saturday from May through October, 4 Square Park transforms into Clinton's most vibrant gathering — farm-fresh vegetables, handcrafted goods, and the flavors of the Midwest, all under one open sky.
All produce grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers — pure, natural, and pesticide-free.
Every vendor is a local grower or artisan you can talk to face to face.
More than a market — it's where Clinton's neighbors gather, connect, and celebrate the harvest season together every single week.
From the field to your table — no middlemen, no warehouse, just fresh harvest delivered Saturday morning.
Free admission, live music, and activities for kids make this a Saturday tradition for every family in town.
Lyons Farmers Market has been a cornerstone of the Clinton community for over two decades. What started as a handful of local growers sharing a table at 4 Square Park has grown into one of the region's most anticipated weekly events — a celebration of the land, the harvest, and the people who tend it.
Every vegetable in your basket, every jar of honey on your shelf, and every loaf of bread from our bakers carries the story of Southeast Iowa's rich farming heritage. We believe that knowing where your food comes from isn't just a trend — it's the foundation of a healthier, more connected community.
Each Saturday, 4 Square Park comes alive with the season's finest — hand-picked vegetables, ripe fruits, artisan cheeses, and more, all grown or made within miles of Clinton.
Tomatoes, peppers, squash, leafy greens, and heirloom varieties — all grown without chemicals and harvested at peak ripeness.
Sweet corn, apples, berries, peaches, and grapes — picked the same morning and priced fairly, straight from the orchard.
Raw wildflower honey, strawberry jam, and small-batch preserves from local apiaries and kitchens throughout the tri-state area.
Artisan cheeses, farm-fresh eggs, and cream from pasture-raised animals — the kind of dairy you won't find in any grocery store.
Sourdough loaves, cinnamon rolls, and seasonal tarts — baked each morning by local bakers using locally milled flour.
Handmade candles, pottery, fresh cut flowers, seedlings, and unique gifts from Clinton County's most talented craftspeople.
We set up every Saturday morning from late May through early October. Come early for the best selection — our most popular vendors sell out by noon.
Don't just take our word for it — hear from the families and food lovers who make Lyons Farmers Market their Saturday tradition.
"I've been shopping here every Saturday for three years now. The tomatoes in August are unlike anything from the grocery store — you can actually taste the difference. It's become our family's favorite weekend ritual."
"As a baker, I only use ingredients I trust. The local honey and eggs from Lyons Market have completely transformed my recipes. Knowing the farmers by name makes all the difference."
"My kids love the atmosphere — the music, the colors, the smell of fresh bread. It's the kind of place that reminds you what community feels like. We drive 30 minutes every week just to shop here."
Whether you're a lifelong Clinton resident or just passing through, Lyons Farmers Market is your invitation to slow down, taste something real, and connect with the people who grow your food.
