The Farmer's Market at the Little Rock River Market is housed in two permanent pavilions with views of Riverfront Park and the Arkansas River. The market offers fresh fruits and vegetables from Arkansas and beyond. The market's hours are Tuesdays and Saturdays (7 AM to 3 PM) from May through October.

The Farmer's Market opened on Saturday, July 6, 1996, one day after the River Market proper. On that first Saturday so many cars jammed the avenue in front of the market that prominent downtown booster Johnnie Holcomb called River Market developer Jimmy Moses to tell him joyously that "[t]here are people everywhere."
