This year’s market will feature over 40 vendors with fresh produce, flowers, baked goods, honey, organic meat, Iowa wines, salsa, jellies and an array of artisan items. In addition, food vendors will be onsite to offer a variety of take-and-eat items including everything from breakfast burritos and smoked pork loin sandwiches, BBQ and other festival fare.

Healthy living programming will also be offered during each Uptown Marion Market. St. Luke’s Hospital will be doing wellness checks in addition to having their V-24 “Bat Boat” onsite. The “Bat Boat” is a unique way St. Luke’s hospital is educating the community about the importance of early detection for breast cancer.
