Wheeler Sunday Market

The Sunday Farmer’s Market began at Wheeler Farm in 2011 operated by the Wasatch Front Farmer’s Market. In 2017 they announced that they would no longer continue the Market at Wheeler Farm. The Market had grown to become a well-loved community event with a wide variety of local vendors from local produce to handmade foods, goods and art. In 2018, Salt Lake County Parks began operating the Wheeler, Sunday Market. Our goal is to support more producers and provide more infrastructure for the market.
