The Sylvania Farmers Market is up and running in its second season at Olander Park under the leadership of Outdoor Sylvania Community Parks. The weekly event, held on Tuesday evenings from 5 to 8 pm, provides a variety of farm fresh produce, artisan food vendors, and crafters.

Another feature of the market is the selection of onsite food trucks. “We have a great lineup of food trucks this season and we will have four to six to choose from each week,” said John Page, the organization’s marketing and events manager. This pairs well with Olander’s spacious layout with pavilions for market guests to enjoy food truck dinners. Here’s the rundown of who you’ll find at the market this season.

Wanna Maker ’Er Loaded
Award winning, loaded wraps, salads, and rice bowls are made with freshly grilled ingredients. Choose from options such as Gyro, Sweet Chicken Teriyaki, Buffalo Chicken, Grilled Veggie, Hawaiian Chicken, Fajita, and Boom Boom Chicken with Sriracha sauce.

Falafel King
Lebanese street food on the go, offering falafel and chicken shawarma sandwiches, fattoush salad, hummus, pita chips, French fries, and baklava.

Trip ’n Biscuits
A market favorite – serving buttermilk biscuit plates such as Sausage Biscuits and Groovy (gravy); munchies including Redneck Poutine with hand cut fries, smoked gouda pimento cheese, sausage gravy and bacon; and far out biscuit sammies like the Karmic Delight with fried eggplant, roasted red pepper, cucumber, tomato and arugula parsley pesto.

Naan Stop Kebap
This food truck features naan wraps including a signature Turkish-style beef and lamb Döner Kebap, Chicken Tikka, and Bulgogi Cheesesteak. Check out the sharables menu with Knife ‘N’ Fork Cheese Fries.
