When the suggestion was made in 2001 that the City of Edmond take over managing the Farmers Market, former City Architect David Odle took on the challenge with passion and enthusiasm. His vision for the future of the Farmers Market laid the foundation for the Festival Market Place.
Along with other re-development efforts in our historic downtown, Festival Market Place provides a sense of identity and connectedness. This revitalization ensures that, as we continue to grow, we keep the "spirit of community" that makes Edmond such a wonderful place to live!
