Shopping Ohio markets

Most of these farms sell at a weekly farmers market, by farm pickup or through a local online market. Bring a paper bag, go early, and ask what was picked that morning.

Our guide to buying from a local grower covers ordering ahead, and what to ask at the stand.

Morel season

Ohio's spring morel hunt is a tradition, and the mushrooms do show up for sale. Buy from someone accountable for what they sell, cook them thoroughly, and never eat a wild mushroom you cannot identify with certainty.

Read the morel guide for what a 2023 outbreak taught buyers.
