Second KC Organics Farmers Market now open on Wednesdays

​Not many people can pinpoint exactly where everything on the dinner table came from. But tomorrow night, Leawood residents can purchase everything from their morning coffee to late-night dessert and know where every product originated. 

KC Organics debuted a second farmers market at Barkley Square in Leawood’s Park Place development last Wednesday. The new weekly market (Wednesdays until October 14) joins the more-established offering in Minor Park (Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. until October 17). 

“We had a great opening day — and we’re hoping to turn this into a long-term relationship. Everything depends on what happens right now,” says Peter Stauffacher, the market manager for KC Organics. 

The market runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the open-air pavilion in the heart of the Park Place (117th Street and Nall) development. 

 

“This is a group and spot that is community-oriented and features a majority of locally owned businesses,” says Stauffacher.
