Freeport Ford booth at the Stephenson County Farmer’s Market featuring a new Ford vehicle and heirloom seed giveaway in downtown Freeport, IL

At Freeport Ford, we’re more than just your local source for new and used Ford vehicles — we’re your neighbors. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our sponsorship of the Stephenson County Farmer’s Market for the 2025 season! This bustling community event brings together local farmers, crafters, food vendors, and small businesses right here in downtown Freeport, IL, and we’re proud to be part of the tradition that makes our region shine.

Supporting Local Roots — Literally

Our partnership with the Stephenson County Farmer’s Market is rooted (pun intended) in our commitment to community. Every other week, you’ll find our Freeport Ford crew set up at the market — not just showcasing the latest new Ford models, but also handing out heirloom seed packets to marketgoers.

Why seeds? Because like you, we believe in growing local. Whether it’s a garden full of tomatoes or a driveway with a brand-new Ford F-150, we’re here to help you plant the seeds for something great.

What to Expect at the Market with Freeport Ford

Stop by the Stephenson County Farmer’s Market every other week to:

  • Explore a rotating lineup of Ford vehicles, including family favorites like the Ford Escape, workhorses like the F-150, and cutting-edge electric vehicles like the Ford Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning.
  • Grab a free heirloom seed packet — varieties will change each week, from vibrant wildflowers to hardy vegetables. It’s our way of helping you keep Freeport green and growing.
  • Ask questions about vehicle features, test drive options, and special offers — our friendly team will be there to chat, no pressure, just community.

We’ll also be sharing updates on upcoming Freeport Ford events, promotions, and local initiatives we’re supporting — because when you shop local, it’s not just about buying a car, it’s about building something together.
