Farm-ula 500 Veggie Race

Next date: Saturday, September 14, 2024 | 09:00 AM to 11:00 AM

Are you ready to squash the competition? Think you can beet all the others? Lettuce see if you have what it takes. Create a racecar from fresh produce to compete in this elimination-style tournament at the Lenexa Farmers Market. The veggie cars will race down a 16-foot track, and the first to reach the finish line moves on to the next round.

Awards will be given for the top three fastest cars, as well as for best decorated and best representation of the farmers market. Both the racing and decorating competitions will be divided into two age categories: 12 and Under, and 13 and Over.

Schedule

• 9–10 a.m.: Space will be provided to construct your car if you have not done this in advance.

How to participate

Register online in advance to ensure your spot, or on the day of the race from 8 a.m. to 9:30 am, if space allows.
