The community spirit that is cultivated in the market nourishes the soul as much as the food nourishes the body. The energy and support that it gives our community truly helps us all THRIVE!

This is a well managed excellent market. Just enough produce vendors with some added extra flavor. Music, honey, art, aprons and food food food.

It's a great place to support our local foodshed and economy. All of the vendors work extremely hard to provide their community with the freshest, healthiest of foods and I think they should be rewarded. Thank you Durango Farmers Market!

Besides that I love singing there & appreciate that Farmers Market supports music & musicians, the healthy food, special people, wares & services are exceptional. That it is outside & local to downtown makes it very pleasant & convenient to access & visit.
And yes, I get to see people I don't normally see when singing or out at night.

good produce, well displayed, very friendly atmosphere and NO dogs allowed which has irritated a few but it's nice to walk among the folks present and not have to worry about dogs and inconsiderate owners. Great location and lots of support folks standing by.

Spending a Saturday morning at the Durango Farmers Market is such fun. You enjoy the outdoors and see lots of people you know... some you may not have seen for a while, so it's great to catch up. Buying locally grown, yummy produce is the topping on the cake. Everyone is friendly and smiling and enjoying the day!

Locally raised fruits, vegetables and meat have multiple benefits: tastier, healthier, and as for the animals, raised more humanely, not to mention supporting your neighbors. Plus it's a fun, community event.

I support local producers because the best way to a healthier lifestyle is through their gardens. Direct-to-consumer means knowing your food, and the people who produce here are as wonderful and varied as the love of their labors.

I grow up in the Durango community, and as I have lived else where for the last 4 years, I've come to realize that there is no real community that compares to Durango. It's truly one of a kind and the Farmers Market is a big part of that.

I like to support local business whenever I can. The produce and goods available are of excellent quality and help our farmers/ranchers succeed. The feeling of community for which we in Durango pride ourselves is never so strong as when I wander through shopping at my leisure, enjoying the sounds, smells and visits with my neighbors!

Supporting our local farmers market is like eating from my friend's garden. Healthy and delicious! It is a true sense of community and the way things should be. It brings "buying local" to a whole new level. ~Not to mention all the fun and friendly smiling faces that bring joy into my life!

The Durango Farmers' Market is full of very dedicated farmers who bring this community the best produce, meats, eggs, and cheeses that can possibly be produced at our altitude. The community is supportive of the farmers and they, in turn, deliver amazing food!

They truly allow you to "eat local", having everything from veggies, fruit, lamb, chicken, beef, artisan cheese, excellent bread and honey. Most is organic, sustainably harvested, fair-trade and/or grown without pesticides. They also have food such as pastries, coffee and tamales to munch on while shopping or enjoying the live music. It is a local gathering place and includes crafts, plants and massage as well! What more could you ask for?
