What to know

  • A weekday market. Most markets around Gainesville are on Saturdays. Archer’s runs on Tuesday afternoons and into the early evening, so it suits a stop after work or school.
  • Who to ask: the notice sends questions to the Archer Historical Society at archerhistorical@gmail.com or to Linda at 352-374-8240. The society can also tell you about selling at the market; the city does not post a vendor application.
  • What is on sale: the notice does not list vendors or products, so the mix varies from week to week.
  • City contact: Archer City Hall is at 352-495-2880, Monday to Thursday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.

For the Saturday markets, see the Haile Farmers Market, the growers-only Alachua County Farmers Market and our farmers markets guide. For more ideas, see things to do this month.
