A Market on a Mission

We’re not your average farmers markets. From earning national accolades, to piloting innovative food access programs and founding a year-round food hub, we’re here to make a difference in our food system. And that’s where you come in.

When you make a contribution to Boulder County Farmers Markets, you’re investing in a future where local food is accessible to all, farmers and our local ecosystem thrive, and we can continue to rely on our seasonal farmers markets as a gathering place for decades to come. You also become part of a growing community of supporters who believe in fresh, local food, strong farms, and vibrant neighborhoods.

Your Support Makes a Difference

What the difference between making a donation to Boulder County Farmers Markets versus shopping at the farmers market or food hub? We’re glad you asked! Financial contributes support our 501(c)(3) nonprofit, which:

  • Supports more than 175 farmers, ranchers, beekeepers and small food businesses with critical business, marketing, and infrastructure resources
  • Delivers over 480 hours of seasonal farmers markets bringing know-your-farmer experiences to Boulder and Longmont
  • Fuels 50 weeks of year-round food access through our food hub and CSA delivery programs, building inclusive programs that ensure all community members can access fresh, local food
  • Strengthens our ability to create welcoming spaces connecting people, food, and story for the next 40 years

Ways to Donate

For nearly 40 years, Boulder County Farmers Markets has connected our community through locally grown food, building nationally recognized markets deeply rooted in our region. We’ve witnessed Boulder’s organic food movement flourish, supported family farm transitions, and celebrated businesses that grew from market booths to store shelves.

But local agriculture faces an uncertain future. Rising business costs, record-high housing and land prices, and climate change are making Colorado farming increasingly difficult. Feeding our village takes a village—and a bold vision.

In celebration of our 40th anniversary, we’re asking our community to join us as a Founding Friend and help grow the next generation of local food. Founding Friends commit to an annual gift of $1,000 or more to help jumpstart Boulder County Farmers Markets philanthropic efforts. Become a Founding Friend today to transform our local food system into the just, vibrant ecosystem we all deserve. Make your gift today.

 

Every dollar invested in our local food system makes a difference—whether that’s $5 at a farm stand, or $5 a month to Boulder County Farmers Markets. Become a Grassroots Champion by setting up a recurring donation of $5 or more, and feel good knowing you’ve got food system transformation locked into your monthly budget. That feels a lot better than a sixth streaming service, right? Start a monthly donation now.
