Reviews for: Boulder County Farmers' Markets | Boulder & Longmont

This is the most exciting farmers market I have ever been to. The people in this community really turn out in large numbers to support each other and the quality of the products are truly amazing. The local farmers, restaurants and artist all work together and the since of community is very strong; the people in this community really support each other, buy and trade wares and do wonders for the local economy of this city. It is a great place for family and community to gather and sample and experience what a diversified culture has to offer. There are really no words to describe how incredible the produce is from the local farmers and the restaurants as a result are producing food that makes you want to eat from every stand, combine this with live music and art and it the best place you could ever hope to visit!

Great food, meet the farmers, wonderful cheeses, more dogs meeting and greeting, old friends, wish it went all year...

This farmer's market has been around for a long time. I no longer live in Boulder, but visit this market when I am there. They always have a lot of organic food which is very important to me. The produce is always fresh, there is a wide variety of produce to buy and there is always a lot of prepared food that is ready to eat while you are at the market too. Everything is very delicious and a lot of fun to be had while you are there.

Great food, vendors and customers - it's alot of fun (and good for your health) to attend with the gorgeous Dushanbe Teahouse to the East and the Flatirons to the West

Great organic farms come here (especially Cure Farm) and the produce is excellent. Lots of people and excitement, dogs, baby strollers, and food. A fun time always.

Terrific produce, bread, coffee; great information, music, food; and the best people-and-doggie parade in town.

Fabulous people running the market, fabulous vendors, zero-waste...it's just the best!!

All the food is produced locally. We walk from the library along a path that presents Boulder Creek at eye level, through the park and into the heart of the farmer's market, which wraps halfway around the block with a myriad of choices from fresh or fermented mushrooms, vine-ripened tomatoes and basil, delectable pastries and raw cheese. The displays are colorful and the food market aroma is awesome. All the farmers are happy to tell you how the food is raised. The ambiance is terrific and the people are friendly.

Fresh goods, locally and organically grown, meeting farmers face to face, in a great location in town - what could be better? The only thing that would be better would be that I was a farmer myself (wish I was)!

It's just a terrific punlic gathering place fro the whole area and has very high quality products from frui and veGgies to flowers and more. It makes grocery shopping fun and sociable instead of a chore.

Great selection of vegetables, meats, breads, pastries, fun lunch choices, live music, beautiful location.

The veggies are gorgeous, the food carts are wonderful and it's a wholesome vibe.

Supporting local organic farms helps protect fertile land from being developed. Small, organic farms nurture the land and grow diverse, non-GMO crops- good for the planet and for us! Supporting local farms also helps support your local economy- your local schools and municipalities benefit.

I've lived all over the country and nothing comes close to being as good as this one in both quality and atmosphere

They support local organic farmers, local bakers, local artisans, and local dairy and meat farms. In addition, they support community outreach programs designed to favor zero waste, sustainability, and the like. They practice what they preach.

1. It's a great way to get the community together to support the local farms. 2. Alongside the wonderful local farmers there is also an area with food booths. Each food booth participant is required to use all supplies that are Eco friendly. Examples include cultery, cups, plate etc must benavle to go into a recycling bin. This is a great step forward in reducing waste in landfills. 3. Next to the food booths we also have tables and music from a local musician. This allows people in the community to meet.

Producer only, good variety of meats, veggies, fruits, cheeses, baked goods and prepared foods!

it's growers only and awesome! the camaraderie between farmers is amazing as well as the sense of community

A great, fun, friendly market with amazing fresh and prepared food, flowers and more produced and sold by the farmer's themselves! It also has fantastic location in Central Park along the Boulder Creek. Love it!

Fresh intersting produce, great vendors, tasty samples. As a visitor it is a wonderful place to spend Saturday morning.

Because the people there REALLY ACTUALLY GROW THE STUFF! The atmosphere is festive, the grass to picnic on is great and the music is a treat.

There are so many quality vendors and they are all great people and fun to talk to!

The market is still a real farmers market with beautiful LOCAL produce.The growers are there to share their passion with you about their produce. It is not a craft fair!

They have a great variety, a great attitude, and the farmers' markets sell refreshments in completely compostable containers, cups, plates, and silverware included. The whole farmers' market is a zero waste zone, something I deeply appreciate it. Plus, the quality can't be beat!

It's my local market! Fresh, organic, and all kinds of friendly people. How could I NOT support it?

Boulder's Farmers Market is by far the best. The food area is unbeatable and the produce is so fresh. OH! And the cheese, such good cheese!

The Boulder County Farmers' Markets are amazing. Being able to talk to & buy from local farmers & vendors is wonderful and I support them in every way possible!

It not only provides fresh organic produce from local farmers, it provides a great social environment for everyone living in and around the town.

Because it's so great! Convenient with Wednesday night AND Saturday morning market. So much good stuff to choose from, and the food vendors are excellent.

It is the premier farmers' market in Colorado, which is no mean feat given our climate, and the good folks behind it are constantly finding new ways to innovate and integrate the market into the local community. It is such a treasure!

Boulder's Farmer's Market has become a must-see attraction for visitors and a fun ritual for our residents. Boulder loves it locals and the Farmer's Market is a great celebration of this!

Because I support local farms, local products and it's a wonderful place to runinto old friends!

I know the snap peas, the fava beans and kale come from the neigbhorhood- likely 80302. I know many of the farmers by name. I can relate to their rainfall, their soil quality and their production schedule. There is an amazing community around fresh food; lettuces that were picked on Friday and delivered to the market on Saturday. The market is the best way to celebrate and encourage biodynamic farming and local farms.

Local whole food is nature's medicine, saves the environment & keeps the local economy stronger.

Boulder Farmer's Market's offers a variety of organic produce, gluten free baked goods, homemade pickling, flowers, . . . you name it, right along with fabulous local music, foods to eat, and a smile! It's a fabulous community event. Good health and fun for everyone.

It is such an amazing place to visit. Every year there are new products that the members figured out how to grow or produce at a mile high, with a 130 day growing season.

It is a super place, A leader in the fight for better food. A city institution !! With the nice area set aside to buy food "ready to eat" and sit down and eat, and often with music "to eat by" - it is a place to meet friends and neighbors, meet new people, etc. Often the food is from different ethnic cultures, expanding our appreciation of this diverse world we live in. A good way to teach tolerance to young people.

The vitality of the Boulder Farmers' Market makes it one of my favorite places to go; I rarely miss it!

They have stayed true to being a venue for local farmers and producers. Always a great abundance of wonderful and unique items.

Always local, always a surprise (in the best of ways), always smells delish & we wouldn't be Boulder with out it!!!

Best atmosphere, most variety,and most healthy market I have visited. Just plain fun!

The food is amazing, the people are fantastic. It's just a great place to be and to shop!

This market has been in my top favorites for all the years it has been open. I go early, visit my friends (the farmers!) and take in the colors, the smells and the deep community feeling that permeates each market day or evening. From the first market in April to the last in November, one can buy fresh, local, organic foods, fresh flowers and yummy fruits. It is such a treat and it tops markets anywhere!

We love knowing where our food comes from and keeping our food dollars right here in the county. And besides, the market has the freshest, most unusual food around!

Since moving to Boulder two years ago, the Boulder County Farmers' Market has become a way of life for me and my family. We buy all of our fresh food here and have become enthusiastic supporters of locally grown, organic, sustainable food producers - let's keep it going and growing!!!

Great local produce sold to consumers by local farmers that know their product and can share great information about it to consumers. Great food, great information, great way to spend the day with family and friends.

A diverse selection of many farmers and produce, both conventional and organic.

We have the best farmer's markets. I moved to N. VA for a few years and theirs are dismal at best. Thank goodness I came home where we have REAL farmer's markets.

I want to support my local farmers and eat fresh locally grown organic foods as much as possible. Our market is also a wonderful place to gather with friends to eat, shop, listen to live music and enjoy the day outdoors.

I LOVE the Longmont Farmer's market the most! Parking is plentiful and easy, there are fewer vendors, and smaller crowds! The Boulder one is great, too. I've been a patron for many years.

My favorite job ever was selling our bison meat at the market in Boulder. Now I simply enjoy visiting the market, seeing familiar faces, and purchasing all sorts of healthy things. Fresh is best.

While there is plenty of space for people to sit ,and lots of great food and farm vendors, the biggest complaint I have with the Boulder County market is that it's layout makes it very difficult to stop and talk to farmers. Because it's set up on either side of a tight street with one main walkway (for the most part) you're encouraged to keep moving. When it gets really busy, I have been pushed forward by crowds. One of my favorite parts of the market is talking to farmers about what they do and how the farm looks, and I've found it really hard to do this at the Boulder County Market. A better layout would be a circle, or a square. If the market were spread out to the area currently reserved for sitting, people could then hang out and talk with their farmers and still have enough space to sit and relax, and the market would be more unified.

It's a wonderful place to go with your family, to meet friends, to hear music and to come home with delicious produce.

I am a cancer survivor & want to teach people that organics will keep us from Cancer.

Lots of great produce, baked goods, prepared foods and local products with great purveyors always willing to give tips and ideas on how to take advantage of our earth's bounty!

It is the hub of our town. When I first moved here I figured that out and managed to help a stand on the weekends. I basically became connected to my community following my interactions with business owners and neighbors I me there.

Because I know some of the farmers, and love that it's a regional market; one of the best in the country!

love them. awesome local farms, incredible entertainment, delicious food court.

They have the most delicious, fresh organic produce and nicest growers! It's the best thing I do each week.

The Boulder Farmers' Market is grower-only and is always overflowing with beautiful produce from local farms.

The Boulder County Farmers' Market is one of the few nonprofit markets in the country with a mission to support local agriculture. They've really helped provide a connection between people who care about good food and local farmers in the Boulder area. My family has been involved off and on over the past 20 years, and it has been an important part of my life. It has turned into quite the local event with nearly 10,000 people every Saturday.

Wonderful produce, creative natural products, great settings for the different markets.

Great produce, great farmers and the Sisters Pantry dumplings are the best Saturday breakfast there is!

Boulder County Farmer's Market is a wonderful community of local food producers with an emphasis on the sustainable. It's local, easy to reach, has wonderful friendly people willing to chat - a marvelous way to spend a morning!

Yay for local farmers! I LOVE the Farmer's Market in Boulder - so much to choose from, great location, friendly people - definitely the hip place to be on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Go Boulder!

Great local organic produce, some stands offering gluten-free products, and a fun downtown scene (esp. Wednesday nights, which are more mellow and recently included a great free dance/art event).

It has a varied selection of organic produce and goods and the food mart has ethnic food that is wonderful. The flowers are beautiful and there are many farmers, including beekeepers and other unique vendors to keep it interesting. Good place for kids too.

The local farms are just awesome and our bodies know we are eating organic local food and are very happy, plus, the people we meet make our week!

Boulder County Farmers Market has the BEST, and the most, organic produce anywhere!! Plus tons of local food vendors, and live music! All of the locals, and visitors alike, come out for this event, TWICE A WEEK!! Saturday mornings and Wednesday evening make it accessible to everyone!! Love It!!!

Because they are a group of fabulous kids who deserve all the support they can receive.

It's local. You know who you buy from. There is great food and music. AND it is ZERO Waste!!!

I support the Boulder Farmers' Market because of the wonderful fresh variety of produce and prepared meals, and because my friend has a great produce stand there Â? Pacha Mama Farms!

The people are friendly, the food is excellent and Boulder is beautiful. What's not to love?

Local farmers are friendly, helpful, hardworking people growing healthy and organic food to enrich human beings and planet Earth. Local farmers are Earth angels. Ellen Mahoney

Fantastic, healthy, fresh, home grown products in a friendly environment. Reasonable prices.

It's great for community-building and I love to support local business and organic growing!

I believe in organic, sustainable farming, I believe in supporting our community and I believe in educating kids about eating healthy and learning where food comes from.

I love supporting local farmers and knowing where my food comes from. And it's always a treat to meet and talk with others in my community in such a positive atmosphere and beautiful place.

friendly vendors - wide variety of products and prepared foods and music, craft fairs

Wonderful market, in beautiful spot, delicious organic fruits & veggies, yummy place for lunch!!

Because its vital for the local economy to support community business. And of course because most of the products offered are organic and sustainable.

because conscious farmers sell an abundance of fresh living foods in a sweet community atmosphere
