The trend with farmer's markets now is that they are located on city property. It is almost impossible to sue a government entity and get money out of them. If your market is on city property - that's why they don't require insurance, because their butt is covered. You, on the other hand, do not enjoy immunity of the sovereign, and you can very easily be sued as an individual. Operating in corporate/llc name would shield you from such suits, but it may be better just to buy insurance, depending on how much in assets you have to protect.
