Mission Statement: To support local producers, encourage a more local food shed and provide fresh local produce to all sectors of the population of the San Miguel Basin. Ideally, we would also like the market to be a community supported meeting place for socializing, enrichment and education.
In addition to the locally grown produce, the majority of which has been grown within 100 miles, we have some extremely talented local craft vendors selling their goods such as hand spun alpaca wool and yarns, handmade glass beads, and recycled artsy clothing and furniture.
We strive to have a continuous CSU Extension presence to answer questions, collect diagnostic samples, and provide information to our residents. We are also hoping to have a consistent kid’s activity area sponsored by local 4H and other non-profit groups that should be educational and fun!
2008 (tentative) Schedule of Events:
The Telluride Farmers' Market strives to support a realistic food shed of 200miles. It is also based in community and is continuously steeped in current food production issues. Visit the TFM and get the best of local food! Fridays from 11:30 to 4pm on Oak Street, June-13th to October 17th. Note: the July 4th market will be moved to Thursday, July 3rd in recognition of American's Bday-- be sure to stock up ahead of time!
