Does anyone know of a list of all of the farmers markets that operate around the city? Is there a website or blog that lists them all?

The Local Matters' website has a Fresh Connect page where you can learn more about the farmers markets, CSA's, etc. I encourage you to read through the website to learn more about what Local Matters is doing as well.

I think Lisa's website Restaurant Widow had a post in the beginning of the summer with a run down of the local farmers markets, including when and where.

Farmers Markets to Provide Fresh Produce to Neighborhood Residents
Markets to be held July 29, August 5 and August 12 at Columbus Public HealthWHAT: Columbus Public Health will host three signature Farmers Markets this summer to increase access to fresh fruits and vegetables in city neighborhoods.
WHO: Columbus Public Health
WHEN: Thursday, July 29, August 5 and August 12, 10 a.m.-1 p.m.
Kick-off Ceremony - July 29, 9:45 a.m.
WHERE: Columbus Public Health’s Near East Side campus, 240 Parsons Ave.
DETAILS: More than 15 area farmers will offer locally grown fresh fruits and vegetables to neighborhood residents and participants of the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) nutrition program and the Ohio Direction Card through three Farmers Markets on the Near East side.
The Farmers Markets will officially open with a kick-off ceremony and ribbon cutting at 9:45 a.m., July 29, featuring: Columbus Mayor Michael B. Coleman; Columbus Public Health Medical Director and Assistant Health Commissioner Dr. Mysheika LeMaile-Williams; Columbus City Council Member Andrew Ginther; and, Columbus Public Health Chief Nursing Officer and Assistant Health Commissioner Debbie Coleman.
The markets provide easier access to healthier foods and support Columbus Public Health’s mission of healthier and safer people because many chronic health conditions – including diabetes, overweight and obesity – are related to poor nutrition.
The Farmers Markets are expected to draw thousands of community members. Last year, more than 11,000 people attended.
