About the Market
Background
In operation since 1990, this farmers market has garnered recognition as Colorado's Favorite (large) Farmers Market in 2011 and has been listed in America's 101 Best Farmers Markets by msn.com and thedailymeal.com.
Practices
The market features both organic and conventional fresh vegetables and fruits, along with natural meats, providing a variety of options for health-conscious consumers.
The Rest
Visitors can enjoy fresh bread and pastries, jams, salsa, pickles, and roasted chilies in August and September. The market also offers hot and cold food on site, artisan crafts, and seasonal specials. Young entrepreneurs under 18 have dedicated spaces, and there are rotating merchant and community spaces. An intern program and sponsorship opportunities are available. The market accepts SNAP and debit card transactions, participates in DoubleUp Colorado for SNAP, and sells branded items. Local garden produce is available at the Market Gardeners table, and live music is performed weekly in the pavilion. The market is followed by an indoor Holiday Market in November at the Ute Pass Cultural Center.
