After you’ve settled into Drexel Town Square, it’s time to check out the real heart of the Oak Creek Farmers Market—the vendors. This market is a true celebration of everything fresh, local, and handcrafted, all reflecting the best of Wisconsin’s farming roots and creative spirit.

You’ll find tents full of fresh, local flavors: just-picked produce, pasture-raised meats, creamy cheeses, farm-fresh eggs, and honey straight from the hive. It’s your chance to make your weekly grocery store trip local; you’ll find everything you need here to make meals for the week. And the vendors always have interesting and creative recipe ideas for using their produce. But the market isn’t just about food. There are gorgeous bouquets of fresh flowers and a variety of handmade goods—soaps, pottery, woodwork, and more—each one highlighting the talent of local makers.

If you need a little boost while you browse, grab a cup of freshly brewed coffee, a specialty tea, or a craft beverage. With new vendors popping up throughout the season, every visit brings a fresh surprise—whether it’s a seasonal treat or a new favorite find. It’s a great way to support small businesses and experience the true flavor of Oak Creek.

Whether you want to take your time browsing, catch up with neighbors, or simply relax, Drexel Town Square is designed to be family-friendly and inviting, perfect for making a morning of it with friends or family.
