The Farmers Market is home to the country’s first self-serve gas station. The owner of the land the original Farmers Market started on was drilling for water for his herd of dairy cattle when he struck oil. This quickly turned into the biggest oil and petroleum outfit in the west.

In an average day over 1,000 gallons of coffee are served to Farmers Market patrons.

The clock tower was erected in 1941.

The wishing well at the Farmers Market gets about $35 every day tossed in it. Over the years almost 1 million dollars have been donated to charities from the wishing well.
