Old Market Farmers Market — Local services in Omaha

As a former vendor, I would not recommend to new vendors coming. The management is very toxic. There have been several situations where the person in charge acted very unprofessional and caused a situation to escalate and had even lied on me SEVERAL times. There was another time when she tried to move me from my spot to a spot people could hardly see my product even though I was originally signed up for the first spot. I don’t know if the lady is racist but she acts very unprofessional. Also, I did NOT feel safe. There is no security at these markets. Homeless people would randomly enter my booth and ask for water. One person was exposed and I almost left. Do better for your vendors. Unsafe environment. And the city of Omaha needs to do something for the homeless like provide mental help.

I wish I could record each story because I find them fascinating. You can tell he has a true passion...

Honestly, I’ve been to so many farmers markets across the country from east coast to west coast, and the end this was one of the best. The quality of the products was great! Didn’t see any tacky booths. Saw at least three stands that had the freshest most beautiful bok choi I’ve seen -can’t even get bok choi that good at...
