Goodbye for now. The Overland Park Farmers Market is holding its final event of the season this Saturday, Dec. 7 from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. Shoppers will be able to snag familiar favorites (plus a few festive additions) and bid the market’s current iteration a final farewell, before construction kicks off on a $34 million renovation project this month.
The city-led improvement project is expected to wrap in 2026 (just in time for the World Cup), promising upgrades like:
- An indoor pavilion for year-round use
- Permanent shade structures
- Enhanced stone patio + utilities hookups
- Expanded restroom access
- Improvements to Clock Tower Plaza, Overland Park Drive + Marty Street
- Access to parking during non-market days
Following other city-led initiatives, the new market space will also feature sustainability improvements including solar panels on the pavilion roof, EV charging stations, and native landscaping.
