Just in town for the weekend? Making your stay in Pagosa Country an extended trip? In either case, stop by the Pagosa Farmers Market and pick up some local products to enjoy during your stay or take home with you as a unique token of Pagosa Springs.
The Pagosa Farmers Market is open every Saturday morning from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. from mid-June to mid-September.
Vendors bring to the market locally grown and produced foods such as vegetables, grass-fed beef, pastured pork, cheeses, milk, eggs, breads, honey, pastries and preserved food. Other products might include plants and plant starts as well as tree seedlings, natural skin-care products and handmade articles of alpaca, mohair and wool.
The market offers a unique feature, the Small Growers Coop, where you can purchase vegetables from backyard growers who sometimes have an excess of one vegetable or another.
In addition to accepting cash or debit cards, market vendors accept SNAP Market Bucks for purchase of market food products, and SNAP beneficiaries receive Double Up Bucks worth $20 with their first $20 SNAP purchase at each market.
Last, but certainly not least, you’re invited to hang out and experience the community. The growers and producers are interesting folks from whom you can learn much about what is unique to mountain living in what they do, and local customers can offer insights about the area.
