What to check before a Kemptville Farmers’ Market visit

Before you head out for produce, baked goods, or a stroll among local makers, confirm today’s Kemptville Farmers’ Market location and hours on the organiser’s own site—not an old PDF or a cached listing. A two-minute check against the current market page is the most reliable way to avoid arriving at the wrong address or outside the posted Sunday window.

This checklist is for Kemptville and North Grenville residents and visitors who want practical visit details from primary public sources. It was drafted with AI assistance from pages checked on 18 September 2026; it is not a first-hand visit report. Always reopen the linked organiser page the morning you go.

1. Confirm the current address on the organiser site

As of this check, the Kemptville Farmers’ Market website states the market is held in the B&H Your Community Grocer parking lot at 200 Sanders Street in downtown Kemptville. Farmers’ Markets Ontario’s directory listing for the market shows the same Sanders Street address. Treat the organiser site as the first place to re-check if anything looks out of date elsewhere.

Some older municipal visitor materials still circulate a different downtown address and a different Sunday time window. Do not merge those versions with the current organiser listing. If a brochure, PDF, or secondary page disagrees with kemptvillefarmersmarket.ca, follow the organiser page and, if needed, contact the market through the address published there.

2. Recheck Sunday hours and the season window

The organiser site currently describes the market as running every Sunday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., from mid-May through October (also phrased as May to October on the same site). Farmers’ Markets Ontario lists Sunday hours as 11:00–15:00 for a seasonal market and, on the day this article was checked, showed a 2026 opening date of May 10 and a closing date of October 25.

Those directory end dates can differ from other seasonal documents in circulation. This article does not treat a single calendar end date as settled. For the last Sunday of the season—or any holiday week—use the organiser site or the market’s published contact channels rather than assuming October closes on a specific date.

3. Parking, access, payment, and pets—as the organiser describes them

• Parking: The organiser FAQ states free parking is available beside the market in the B&H lot, with additional parking on surrounding streets.
• Accessibility: The same FAQ describes the market as wheelchair and stroller accessible, on one level in a paved parking lot with wide aisles. That is the organiser’s published claim as of this check—not a site audit by this blog.
• Payment: The organiser says most vendors accept cash, debit, and credit cards, and that some smaller vendors may be cash-only, so bringing some cash is recommended.
• Dogs: Well-behaved dogs on leashes are welcome per the organiser FAQ, with a request to keep pets close and clean up after them.
• Seating / music: The organiser notes seating areas and weekly live music; offerings can change by date, so use the live site for what is planned on a given Sunday.

4. Pair the market stop with downtown planning sources

If your Sunday also includes shops, parks, or on-street parking elsewhere in Old Town, keep market facts and municipal planning facts separate. For downtown parking rules, parks, and event calendars published by the municipality, see our guide to planning a downtown Kemptville visit from municipal sources. Recheck both the market organiser page and the municipal pages that apply to your other stops.

Quick pre-visit checklist

• Open the official market site and confirm Sanders Street (or whatever address is shown that day) and the Sunday hours.
• Skim the organiser FAQ for parking, payment, accessibility, and pet notes if those matter for your group.
• If a municipal calendar or old visitor PDF disagrees, prefer the organiser page and verify before you leave.
• Do not rely on a remembered season-end date; confirm whether this Sunday is still within the posted season.
• Optional: bookmark the municipal downtown and parking pages if you are combining the market with a wider downtown walk.

Local listings drift. The habit that protects your visit is simple: read the current organiser page, note the date you checked it, and treat secondary directories—including helpful ones like Farmers’ Markets Ontario—as supporting context until they match what the market itself publishes.
