Each row is a market and the bar is its 2026 season. There is no peak tick, because a market does not have one. Hover a name for the day, the hours and the address.

Two rows have two bars. Both are winter markets whose season runs straight through New Year — 1 November to 1 April is stored as the two arcs it really is, because the chart, the day arithmetic and the today line are all 1–365 and none of them wraps. The year boundary in the middle of the Worthington indoor bar is an artefact of how a chart is drawn, not a fortnight when the market shuts.

✦ marks a market that is not a Produce Perks location. Everything without the mark takes SNAP/EBT through the Ohio Direction card and matches it dollar for dollar on fresh produce. That is not a small detail: it is the difference between a market being a place to shop and a place to visit.

The chart scrolls sideways on a narrow screen.

Nine, and they are not interchangeable. Clintonville opens three weeks before anything else and closes three weeks after it; Grove City is finished by mid-September. That spread is the whole value of this group.

Market	Hours	2026 season	Produce Perks
Clintonville Farmers' Market	9am – 12pm	25 Apr – 21 Nov	Yes
Worthington Farmers' Market (outdoor)	8am – 12pm	2 May – 31 Oct	Yes
German Village Farmers Market	9am – 1pm	2 May – 21 Nov	✦ No
Dublin Market at Bridge Park	9am – 12pm	2 May – 26 Sep	✦ No
Grove City Farmers Market	8am – 12pm	9 May – 12 Sep	✦ No
Westerville Farmers' Market	9am – 12pm	16 May – 26 Sep	Yes
Powell Farmers Market	9am – 12pm	23 May – 3 Oct	✦ No
Canal Winchester Farmers Market	9am – 12pm	30 May – 26 Sep	✦ No
Westgate Farmers' Market	9am – 12pm	6 Jun – 17 Oct, first and third Saturdays	Yes

Westgate is the only fortnightly market in the county, so its bar means half the Saturdays inside it. Two extra markets sit outside the bar entirely, on 16 May and 21 November.

One row, because Columbus has one Sunday market with a published season.

Market	Hours	2026 season	Produce Perks
Grandview Heights Farmers' Market	9am – 12pm	3 May – 11 Oct	✦ No

Wild Ways Farm's Sunday pop-up at the Little Grand Market opens 5 July 2026 and its published end is "into fall", which is not a date. It is on the directory page, listed and unbarred, rather than here with a closing day this page made up.

The after-work group, and the one with the most turnover year to year. Three of these run less than ten weeks.

Market	Day and hours	2026 season	Produce Perks
Upper Arlington Farmers Market	Wednesdays 3 – 6pm	13 May – 21 Oct	Yes
Bexley Farmers' Market	Thursdays 4 – 7pm	14 May – 22 Oct	Yes
OhioHealth Farmers' Market	Tuesdays 4 – 7pm	19 May – 20 Oct	Yes
Hilliard Farm Market	Tuesdays 4 – 7pm	19 May – 22 Sep	Yes
Franklin Park Conservatory Farm Market	Wednesdays 3:30 – 6:30pm	3 Jun – 16 Sep	Yes
Healthy New Albany Farmers Market	Thursdays 4 – 7pm	4 Jun – 27 Aug	Yes
Prairie Township Farmers' Market	Mondays 4 – 7pm	22 Jun – 17 Aug	Yes
Market on Orange	Tuesdays 4:30 – 7:30pm	30 Jun – 11 Aug	✦ No

Prairie Township is the only Monday market in the county and runs nine weeks. Market on Orange runs seven, which is the shortest season on any chart here.

Lunch hours and the all-year rows. Two of these are not markets in the sense the rest of the chart means, and both are here because they are what somebody in Franklinton or on Parsons Avenue can actually use in February.

Market	Day and hours	2026 season	Produce Perks
Franklinton Farms	Order Mon – Thu, collect Fri after 4pm	All year	Yes
Local Matters Veggie Van	Mon – Fri 9am – 5pm, published route	23 Jan – 18 Dec	Yes
Pearl Market	Tuesdays and Thursdays 11am – 2pm	May – Oct	✦ No
Moser's Farm Market	Wed – Fri 10am – 6pm; Sat 9am – 2pm; Sun 12 – 4pm	Jun – Nov	✦ No
Columbus Public Health Farmers' Market	Three or four dates; times at columbus.gov/wic	1 Jul – 30 Sep	Yes

Two bars in this group have approximate edges and say so. Pearl Market and Moser's publish months rather than dates, so their bars are drawn to the ends of those months. The Columbus Public Health row is the one bar on the chart that is a window rather than a season: Public Health runs three or four markets somewhere inside that quarter and sets the dates late, and "sometime in this quarter" is genuinely all the state directory commits to.

This is why the chart is not just a summer calendar. Look at the second week of January: every outdoor market in the county is dark, and two rows are lit.

Market	Day and hours	Season	Produce Perks
Worthington Farmers' Market (indoor)	Saturdays 9am – 12pm	1 Nov 2025 – 1 Apr 2026	Yes
Healthy New Albany Winter Market	First Saturday of the month 9am – 12pm	1 Nov 2025 – 28 Mar 2026	Yes

Worthington does not close for the winter. It moves half a mile up High Street into the Shops at Worthington Place and carries on every Saturday morning, which makes "is there a farmers market in January" a question with a yes attached to it in this city. New Albany's winter market is monthly, at a different address from its summer market two miles away — five Saturdays across the whole winter, the sparsest bar on the chart, and still more than most of the county manages.

The Veggie Van also runs from the third week of January, and Franklinton Farms takes orders every week of the year.

Season dates, days, hours and Produce Perks status are transcribed from the State of Ohio's 2026 Farmers' Market Directory — the county-by-county list of Ohio markets accepting the Ohio Direction card, last revised April 2026. It is the only source consulted that prints an exact opening and closing date per market rather than a month, which is the one thing a chart of windows cannot approximate.

Markets that take no EBT are not in that directory and are not thereby absent from Columbus. Those rows — German Village, Pearl Market, Dublin, Grandview Heights, Grove City, Canal Winchester, Powell, Market on Orange, Moser's — come from Experience Columbus, the city's convention and visitors bureau.

Where the two disagree the state filing wins and the row says so. There are two disagreements: Upper Arlington closes at 6pm in the state filing and 6:30 at Experience Columbus, and Canal Winchester is given two different High Street addresses.
