Established on Pontotoc’s historic Court Square in the 1800’s with farmers and ranchers from all corners of the Hill Country gathering to sell their wares, the Pontotoc Farmers Market is one of the oldest open-air markets in the state. As a producer-only market, the PFM is committed to providing a safe, transparent environment where consumers can shop with confidence and purchase their food from trusted sources. All products sold at the PFM are locally grown and produced. All meat is free of general use antibiotics and hormones. Animals are pasture-raised. Prepared artisan foods source ingredients from local farms whenever possible. Many foods are grown Certified Naturally Grown or using natural and organic controls and heritage varieties.
Visit us Saturdays and Wednesdays during our season and enjoy a Pontotoc tradition!

Registration is Open for the 2025 Cottage Foods Workshop!
All cottage food producers are strongly encouraged to receive training on the specific requirements and procedures for selling home-crafted foods to ensure their products are legal and safe. Applicants accepted as vendors at the Pontotoc Farmers Market must acknowledge that they are following cottage food laws. The Pontotoc Farmers Market Cottage Foods Workshop is designed to teach the basics of food safety and regulations in Mississippi, giving customers confidence in the safety and quality of your wonderful local foods.
If you are a baker, we encourage you to bring samples of your baked goods for anonymous advice from Pastry Chef TJ Manna of Proof Bakery in Starkville, MS. Plus, hear her tips for baking sourdough, breads, desserts and more.
