Ponca, Nebraska · Est. Local
Farm-fresh food doesn't need a middleman.
From the fields of Dixon County straight to your hands — seasonal produce, local goods, and the kind of freshness that only grows when you know exactly who grew it.
Rooted in the soil,
serving the community.
Dixon County Farmer's Market isn't a concept we adopted — it's something that grew from the ground up, the way good food should. For years, families across Ponca and the surrounding counties have been bringing their harvests to 119 W 3rd Street, and we've been here to connect them with people who actually care where their food comes from.
When you walk through our market, you're not browsing a display case. You're meeting the people who planted the seeds, tended the crops, and harvested what you're holding. That's the difference between grocery store produce and food that was grown with intention.
Harvested within days, not months

From the field,
straight to your table.
Every item you find at our market has a story — who grew it, when it was picked, and why it matters. Here's what you'll typically find across the seasons.
Seasonal Vegetables
Tomatoes, peppers, squash, corn, greens, root vegetables — all grown within the county and picked at peak ripeness.
Fresh Fruits
Apples, berries, melons, and stone fruit from local orchards and vineyards. Sweet, ripe, and in season.
Baked Goods & Preserves
Artisan breads, jams, jellies, and preserves made from local fruit. Each batch tells the story of its ingredients.
Eggs & Dairy
Pasture-raised eggs, fresh milk, and artisan cheeses from local farms. Quality you can taste in every bite.
