For generations, the diverse geography of Arizona has allowed its farmers to cultivate an exciting variety of fruits and vegetables. Farmers’ Markets all over the state bring the best of these crops directly to you.
Participants in the following markets are required to be direct producers, family members or agents of the producers (as defined by Arizona State Statute). Generally the producers are small local growers or farmers. The typical farming method is pesticide-free or organic. The size of farms range from large backyards to a few hundred acres. Other participants are direct producers of cottage industries such as jellies, honeys, baked goods and other food items and in some markets, arts and crafts.
Come and experience the vibrant colors, the smell of freshly harvested produce, the joyful sounds of an outdoor community market and the juicy taste of the season’s finest fruits and vegetables!
