Whitewater City Market

Our mid-winter markets may be smaller, and we know cold, occasionally snowy mornings can make it tough to get out—but we’re incredibly grateful for the year-round support of our amazing community and the dedication of the local farmers and producers who make the Whitewater City Market possible.

Your continued patrinage, even on the chilliest days, help sustain local food, small businesses, and the spirit of our market. Thank you for showing up, sharing smiles, and supporting local!

Wishing you a safe, productive week ahead. We can’t wait to see you again next weekend!

While it`s still a bit too cold for harvesting greens, but we are looking forward to a taste of spring with pea shoots from Peace of Eden Farm this weekend alongside carrots, coffee, and lamb! #localtastesbetter #whitewatercitymarket ...

There`s something special about a Main Street sunrise—especially in late January when there’s just a whisper of spring in the air. Pure morning perfection!

Take a little extra time this morning to soak it in on your way downtown for coffee, breakfast, or a refreshing morning stroll. #MorningMagic #MainStreetSunrise #downtownwhitewater

Info & Resources on Cottage Baking Law and Organic Farm Certification

Cottage Baking Law

On October 2, 2017, Wisconsin home bakers became allowed to legally sell their not-potentially hazardous baked goods directly to customers.

Here are two resources that give you all the information needed to understand Cottage Baking Law:

  1. WI Cottage Food Law
  2. "Best Practices for Selling Baked Goods"

Organic Farm Certification

"As a farmer, retailer or other business, gaining USDA organic certification status is a savvy and ethical business move. However, it's not enough to simply claim "organic." You must make sure that your product is carrying the certified USDA Organic Seal.

The USDA National Organic Standard Seal not only shows your ongoing commitment to a healthy planet but assures consumers and buyers that your product meets stringent USDA organic certification requirements. It will make your product more marketable and profitable."
