The Greeley Farmers’ Market—voted best in Colorado—opens for its summer season this Saturday, May 7.
The market’s summer season takes place from 8 a.m.-noon, every Saturday through Oct. 29, 2022, at the historic Union Pacific Depot, 902 7th Ave., in downtown Greeley.
“Last year's farmers' market was a huge success and this year we plan to make even more improvements,” said Andrea Haring, special events coordinator for the city. “We normally reach our peak number of vendors in mid-July, but we’re starting off strong this year with some great options in May.”
The Greeley Farmers' Market will feature a wide variety of food this month, such as:
- fresh greens,
- root crops,
- mushrooms,
- beef, bison, chicken, and pork,
- bread and rolls,
- pies and pastries,
- salsas,
- tortillas,
- tamales,
- breakfast burritos,
- honey,
- soaps and lotions,
- kombucha,
- and coffee.
Every weekend, vendors offer a wide variety of locally grown and produced food, including fresh and in-season produce, meats, honey, bread and other baked goods, roasted chiles, and much more. Local artisans and crafters also offer great gifts and other sundries.
Multiple Ways to Shop at Farmers’ Market
The Farmers' Market information booth accepts card payments and provides vouchers to purchase items at the market. In addition to debit and credit cards, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefit Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) cards are accepted. SNAP provides benefits to eligible low-income individuals and families.
The experience offers more than merely shopping for fresh food. Each week includes live music. In addition, every week the Weld County Master Gardeners from CSU Extension provide yard and landscaping advice.
