Reviews for: Golden Farmers' Market

So far I have been to most of the farmer's markets on the west side of town this year, and I think Golden in my favorite. Wheat Ridge and Lakewood, for example, have markets that have basically the same very poor selection of vendors with no organic produce, any time that I have stopped at either, and a lot of space wasted on little crafts. I don't mind a little of that, but it should be secondary to actual selection from farms and orchards and such. Golden is much more unique, with multiple organic veggie booths, an excellent selection of gluten free baked goods along with the normal baked goods. It even has some of the interesting and eclectic like a booth for a local distillery. There are several food booths for having lunch, though I haven't found one of those with gluten free food. There are amazing vinegars, jams, jellies, bee produces and honey, and many more. My one wish is that there were more organic meat sources available.

Food and food related vendors, not trinkets and crafts. Large space between the Table Mountains and Lookout Mountain and Clear Creek. Totally run by volunteers, no money goes to administrating it.

I love the variety & community. Lots of fresh fruits & veggies. Great food, great people, great town.

Because you know that all the stuff you buy is FRESH, and you get to know the people in your own home town.

It's a fabulous small-town market that brings people together each week to shop, eat, and socialize.

The peach lady is just peachy. Little ones love live llamas licking their lunches. Breakfast burritos beat bran flakes any day. Got culture? The Golden Cultural Alliance is always there with interesting, interactive displays. And music! And puppet shows! And carriage rides! And...

I love supporting local business people. The products are top notch. It brings the community together. The offerings are fun and unique. The sponsors conduct the market in a professional manner.

We love the hometown atmosphere and the fact that there are so many farms represented. It has a feel for being in the country, yet it's so close to Denver. And the workers are among the best!

Variety of products, great family atmosphere, fully run by volunteers, great community support, beautiful location near the creek, good food

Because our dear friend Hungry Dave & Happy Karen enrich peoples lives selling fantastic Colorado honey products!

Have several friends who have booths there, especially Hungry Dave! Always a pleasure to make it up there and enjoy the whole experience.

Free carriage rides and puppet shows for the kids are great added feature for the kids. The best part of the market is to grab some lunch and walk just a few feet away and sit by Clear Creek to watch the kayakers.

Golden Farmers Market ROCKS! We sell Honeyville products and Green Earth Farm cosmoceuticals there every Sat morning. The venue is awesome and the weather has been perfect all year. Come have some free samples soon. www.homegrown-colorado.com

There is a great variety of vendors, and the market is clean and well organized.

It is a weekly community event where neighbors meet and greet one another. The setting on the creek is wonderful, the weather is great, and what a perfect way to begin a weekend!!!

The Golden Farmer's Market is a perfect mix of tasty food, entertainment, community, and of course, beautiful Colorado weather. Located next to the creek, the library, and the park, it is THE place to go on Saturday mornings.

The Golden Farmers' Market is a community gathering place, where I meet old friends and catch up on their lives and community events. All done in the context of good food and good produce, it is the way a farmer's market truly should work.

This Farmers' Market is the place to be- - the friendly atmosphere, so many vendors with so much to offer. Just phenomenal people, food, produce, entertainment and attractions for all ages!

We like the food that some of the vendors fix. It is fun seeing friends and neighbors. It is nice having home grown fruit and vegetables so convenient.

Anytime people are abel to purchase fresh food items and help the growers as well as themselves this is unquestionably a win win situation especially in these economik times.

The wide variety of items offered, the entertainment (music and puppet show as well as free horse-drawn carriage rides), the friendliness of the vendors, the ambience of a small town function where we see our friends and neighbors. I love the Golden Farmers' Market!

Its tons of fun! If your looking for FRESH produce you have come to the right place! From apricots to zucchini its all there!!! Not only do they have wonderful produce and vendors they have free horse drawn carriage rides and a puppet show for kids .

It's a real farmers market, sold and grown by local farmers. The food is INCREDIBLE. The have cooks that cook breakfast and lunch, that is some of the best food that I have ever had. Lots of places to sit. Friendly faces. Filled with incredible people. Highly recommend it.

It is a true Farmers Market. Great food, fresh produce, a lot of variety! Free horse drawn carriage rides. A wonderful place for people to connect! :)

The food is great the produce is great and there is something for the entire family including the dogs!

I live in golden and love to go to the downtown golden market. The food and people are excellent! We love the variety of booths and the location is perfect

Great vendors, lovely and fresh produce, and a chance to catch up with friends and neighbors over breakfast burritos or iced coffee and find out the latest news about what's going on in my town. It has become my favorite thing to do on the weekend.

The Golden Farmer's Market is a delightful experience; friendly vendors, convenient location, excellent mix of products, and great organization. The market enhances quality of life for all who attend. It's a charming social event, where good health is promoted by access to great food.

I can enjoy a variety of food and crafts while visiting with my neighbors. And the location next to the river walk makes it all the more enjoyable.

I love our Farmer's Market! There is a great variety of vendors and I love to come down and buy and socialize!

It's a great little market with a wonderful small town ambiance. Not only do we love going to gather the fresh produce for our weekend meals, but we also "sample" our way through the market to satisfy our munchies as well! Afterwards we stow our purchases in a cooler in the car and then spend an hour or so strolling through the downtown shops. We always comment on how we have found or learned something new. What a great community asset!

It's where I go on Saturday mornings to pick up fresh produce, have a nice breakfast, and socialize with all my neighbors - who all stop by in the morning. It's filled with great products, nice people, and a beautiful location along the creek.

There's such a special ambiance at the Golden Farmers Market that you can't find anywhere else. From the horse drawn carriage rides and numerous little rainbow umbrella covered eateries located throughout the market, to the puppet show that both children and dogs alike love; itÂ?s just a treat to visit on Saturdays! The produce is fresh and as locally grown as the Colorado weather permits and the specialty items are wonderful too with cold pressed soaps, Colorado honeys, salsas, and the most delicious foods cooked on-site. People in the Golden community truly feel this is their market and value it highly and visit it regularly all season long. WeÂ?re proud of it too and invite everyone to come visit us and enjoy a great day in Paradise - Golden. ItÂ?s presented in such a way that it is a true representation of what the City of Golden is all about. It is a destination, not just a Farmers Market so come see for yourself!

Golden is charming and it's so much fun to mosey around and do some out door shoping. It's so beautiful in Golden. My favorite farmers market spot of all!

Great variety, horse drawn carriage rides, puppet show for kids, lovely setting, friendly people, plenty of space for people and dogs, high quality vendors

Golden Farmer's Market is more than just a fruit market. It is a community event every Sat. It has grown each year in the number and quality of vendors. I look forward to the bakery items, the gourmet vinegars and pastas and of course the fresh vegetables. If you're hungary, there are great prepared foods available, breakfast burritos, barbeque, and much more. After making my purchases at the market, a quiet walk along Clear Creek with the family is a great ending to the event.

The Golden Farmers market has wonderful produce, herbs, jellies and pastry. The surroundings are gorgeous with the market set along side the river. There is so much activity, it is a wonderful way to spend a Saturday morning.

Local businesses! Great atmosphere! Wonderful selection! Beautiful town! Well organized!

This is the best farmers market you will ever visit. The great hometown atmosphere and the best quality produce. You can't beat it.

Fantastic location, produce that makes dinners proud, lovely farmers who CARE!!!! I recommend this market to all of my clients!

it is a great place to buy local, fresh fruits and veggies, have a coffee and pastry with friends, catch up on local events, see what our stores have to offer...a real benefit to the total 'Golden' experience

With out a doubt.... Golden Farmers Market is Special. Where else can you find free carriage rides, puppet shows for the kids, master gardners with fresh information each week, wonderful produce, great things to eat. It's a place where famlies and friends can meet, eat, and discuss "what's happening in Golden" around a picnik table with colorful umbrellas. The entire market is inviting and friendly. The venders are always ready to help and suggest different methods of cooking or preparing their products. And what a variety!!! Nothing but the best.

Variety, fresh produce, friendly vendors/participants. Great "gathering place" to visit with friends.

A wonderful location with a great assortment of vendors. The creek is an awesome walk.

Great munchies, Great produce, Wonderful specialties & community awareness booths. This is more than a market, it's a community event.

It's a great place to get products from the maker or grower and also to see and talk with friends.

The quality of the produce & other goods is excellent, of course, but I also value the Golden Farmers Market as a community experience. I always see people I know there, which makes it fun. And the mountain views are spectacular!

Because it is wonderful - food, salsa, veggies and reflexology by Healthy Offerings!

This place and organization has a real sense of community and being there lifts your spirits.

It's the closest to me and it's got a great variety--it's not to big and not too small and most of the people going are from the immediate Golden area.

We really have a good time at this market. They have a horse drawn carraige. My kids love it. Its not so big that you run out of money by the end. Its beautiful by the creek too.
