For managers of the 2024 farmers market, you'll be dealing with Emily and Corina. . . !

 


As the new market managers for the Espanola Farmers Market, we are very much looking forward to the opportunity to serve our community in this way and support local farmers! We are grateful for all the incredible work Sabra Moore has done for this market over the past twenty-three years, and the legacy she leaves behind. We are also excited to get more information out to the Espanola Valley this year, with the hopes of bringing in more local farmers and shoppers to celebrate the abundant fresh food, conversation, music, and vital community togetherness. 

Hope to see you on June 10th for the market opening! AND you'll be hearing soon from Sabra Moore directly.

So you've been getting ready for the farmers' market opening on Monday, June 10, 2024...


 Last year in early June, 2023, the crops were not ready to harvest and sell. Some produce loves it hot.

Others like it cold.

That's why we're experimenting with pushing back the Monday when the farmers' market opens. This year...in 2024, we're opening on Monday, June 10, 2024.

It's an experiment, and we'll see if it makes a difference.

So, mark your calendar for June 10, 2024. It's a Monday, and we're going to see how it works out.

Let us know what you think about the date change!

We've been able to experiment with all sorts of programs and outreach at the Espanola Farmers Market...

We've had a lot of fun over the weeks and years; the friendships begun and cultivated over the years too!

So many people have contributed to the market. We've photographed and heard their words ourselves, whether they're the growers, the customers, the builders, and those who prepare and clean up after the many who have done this or that, or sung a special tune, or eaten a terrific tamale, or whatever.

BLASTS FROM THE PAST come in all forms...









We're approaching the beginning of the 2024 market season.

Let's stop and pat ourselves on the head about our so many apple pies and accomplishments.



Maybe we'll have this produce, and maybe we won't...


There's produce available each year that you may never see anywhere else. This chart only hints of what is available and we wanted to make sure all of our growers and customers were aware of it.

You'll also have to ask at our main market headquarters. It's subtle so ask and don't apologize. We've come a long way over the years!

 

Yum...This is one of many TREATS waiting when the farmers' market opens on Monday, June 10, 2024


 And do we have news to share with you for 2024!

But you will never know what it is unless you are checking this web site that has been ongoing since 2007.

So many changes have come down since we started selling and buying fresh produce that is harvested locally. We have the old and the new here. Don't forget us from June 10, 2024 to the end of October each year.

WE'RE COUNTING ON ANOTHER GREAT SEASON in 2024.

A TINY DELAY TO OPEN THE SUMMER FARMERS' MARKET IN JUNE 2024!

 


The Espanola Farmers Market will open for this year on Monday, June 10, 2024. Let's check in with each other then. The summer Market will end at the usual ending—in October 2024 during the final week.

We're still eating from the bounty at the Market! And we're dreaming of planting the seeds in 2024.

The Espanola Farmers Market was slow in getting started in the spring of 2023. But it wasn't obvious about thelate start when the crops started coming in. We'll be slow getting started in 2024 as we get used to a new regime. And we're still spreading the joy of the photos from the 2023 season.

A great 2024 planning and planting season has started, now that we're settled and ready!

Highlights of the last 2023 market day on October 31, 2023! We celebrated with a potluck where the dishes were amazing and filled with love.
