How To Access Service
The Mid-Ohio Market is offering in-person service every service day. Customers will be able to shop through the Market and choose from the food on offer for that day.
Market Hours
Monday 11 a.m.-4 p.m.
Wednesday 2 p.m.-6 p.m.
Thursday 11 a.m.-4 p.m.
The Mid-Ohio Market service hours mirror that of Columbus State Community College class schedules and will be closed during planned and emergency campus closures (spring & between-term breaks, weather emergencies, & holidays recognized by the College).
Be the first to know about closures by signing up for RAVE, a text alert system used only for communicating emergency closures and snow days at Columbus State. You do not need to be a student to sign up for this alert service.
Can You Help?
The Mid-Ohio market is always in need of dedicated volunteers! We need your help in fulfilling this vital mission. We welcome volunteers whether you are affiliated with Columbus State or not.
