The Middle Market is new as of 2013. Taking place on the third Saturday of January, February, March, and April, the Middle Market is located inside of Lincoln Square in downtown Urbana. Market hours are 8am to 1pm. The Middle Market extends the market season year-round, bridging the gap between Holiday Market and Market at the Square. Middle Market is a producer-only market, meaning that all of the items sold at the market are made, grown or produced in Illinois. Many return vendors from Market at the Square and Holiday Market participate in the Middle Market, along with many new faces. This market is organized and facilitated by the Urbana Business Association.
