I believe that "think global, buy local" is manifested in a farmer's market, and the Prescott Farmer's Market presents this with everyone who participates coming together in their passion for making this difference in the world.

The local produce and other products are of the highest quality, and I get to visit with my fellow, like-minded community members!

Because it makes Prescott a wonderful place to live, where we can be nourished by the local land and the people who care for it!

If you can buy local, why ship from California? If you can try a new variety of tomato each week, why buy the same 3 kinds in Albertsons? If you can buy ripe fruit and veggies why choose unripe?
PS. Have you ever tried Georgian/Asian cucumber? Ask for it. It should be in season in a week or so. The only place I ever saw it in the States is Prescott Farmers Market.

It creates a sense of wonderful sense community to gather and shop with the same desire to support sustainable and local agriculture. We need better varieties and choices than the shelf safe produce offered through traditional grocery chains.

The Market is very well-organized! It provides a grassroots antidote to the pervasive big-box trend which the City Council has promoted and subsidized in recent years. The PFM allows citizens the opportunity to interface with local ranchers, farmers, musicians, etc! The Market truly enhances the quality of life in Yavapai County! THINK GLOBALLY, EAT LOCALLY!!!

1) nothing beats fresh when it comes to veggies.
2) it's always better to support local businesses

Buying direct from local farmers is good for the environment and good for our tummies, too!

Great variety, very fresh produce & meat, friendly, honest vendors with reasonable prices. Tips for using unfamilar produce. My local shopping helps small enterpeneurs and reduces costs related to packing and shipping.

Shopping at the Prescott Farmers market is not only a way to feed your family with wonderful locally grown food, it is a way to honor and support the growers who keep local farmland in sustainable production. It is impressive to see what can be grown around here and to learn about the crops from the growers.

Because my friend live in Sedona and a large group of us go up there all the time. I only eat fresh veggies so it is great to have. Plus did you know that Sedona originated because of a trade route that included farm items. That's the only way they could survive in that locale. :-)

The Prescott Farmer's market is the heart of our local community every summer. It allows us to support local farmers and feel great about where our food comes from. It's a gathering place like no other for our community. It has become an integral part to our identity as Everyone's Home Town. The farmer's are great and the fresh food is even better!

It gives me a sense of community. I love buying my food from people I know, local food that is produced organically by farmers with integrity. I love seeing my friends at the market, oohing and ahhing over all of the colorful produce, the duck eggs, the local grass-fed beef that the rancher is telling me about while showing me pictures of his cows on the range, an area I have ridden by on my bicycle. And the bicycles! All of the folks who fill up bike bags with food, rhubarb and beets sticking up like tufts from the edges of their bags as they commute home, oil-free and locally fed.

Absolutely, without a doubt the freshest, most delicious produce, in a fun to shop environment. The kids especially love to go - and that's something when small children want to go shopping!

I can learn about mulching, sustainable gardening, or how local bees made the honey sitting in front of me. I can buy amazing meat that has been raised, grass fed, without hormones or antibiotics, right in this area. Not only are there amazing varieties of produce and local products, but also fun music, eateries, and rescue dogs in need of adoption. The atmosphere is relaxed and fun. I leave with more then just locally grown food. I also get knowledge and plants to add in my own backyard. :)

Prescott Farmers Market needs your support! Since Prescott is not a big city, and with the economy the way it is today, people are becoming less and less able to buy natural, wholesome foods. Prescott Farmers market has always been there with low prices, and people willing to help you when you need it most. They can't continue this alone! We need your support!
