The Wolfeboro Area Farmers' Market began in 2002 with the hard work of a group of local farmers and citizens who wanted to provide a central venue for local farmers to sell directly to their local customers.

The market has, over the years, had several locations including the front lawn of Carpenter School on Main Street, in front of the croquet court in Clark Plaza on Center Street, and behind the car wash off Pine Street. In 2009, with the help of GALA (Global Awareness Local Action), the market moved to its present location in Clark Park on the grounds of the Wolfeboro Historical Society on South Main Street.
