Farmer's Market
The Pittsburg Farmer’s Market is growing each
year. We signed up more than two dozen local farmers in 2009 and we hope to
expand the market this year to include canned goods and other items as we seek
to give consumers another reason to shop Main Street! Every Saturday – May 8 –
August 28 -- local farmers will set up shop on Tapp Street from 8 a.m. to noon.

Market rules and the 2010 City of Pittsburg Peddler’s Permit.

Pioneer
Days
The community enjoyed stepping back in time as
the Chamber brought back Pioneer Days April 4. It was a celebration of Pittsburg's rich heritage
with vendor booths featuring handcrafted gifts, art, crafts and jewelry. We
started on a small scale this year, but hope to see Pioneer Days grow next year
and become a new "old" Pittsburg
tradition.
