Main Street Rogers has announced it will start a new farmers market in downtown Rogers in 2016.

A news release Wednesday stated that Main Street Rogers would take ownership of the Rogers Farmers Market, which is operated by an independent nonprofit, but Jessica Rush, interim director of Main Street, said that was inaccurate.

The organization will partner with the city to run the new market, a press release states. The existing market is run by an independent nonprofit.

The current market has been operating in Frisco Park in downtown Rogers many years. The release states officials are researching a new location downtown for the new market.
