We love local here at the Fort Collins Food Co-op and we know you do too! Below you will find some of the best places to buy local (besides at the Food Co-op of course).
Farmer’s Markets
The Larimer County Farmer’s Market: Located downtown in the Larimer County Courthouse parking lot. “The Larimer County Farmers’ Market started in 1975. We are the oldest Farmers’ Market in Northern Colorado and proud of it! Located in beautiful Old Town Fort Collins, we are run by Colorado State University Master Gardeners in Larimer County who volunteer their time to oversee market operations. All of the products offered must be grown, produced or made by our local vendors themselves.”
Drake Road Farmer’s Market: Located at 802 West Drake Road, you will find many local farmer’s and vendors to buy local to your heart’s desire!
Fort Collins Farmer’s Market: Located at 1001 East Harmony Road (Harmony and Lemay in front of Ace Hardware). “We are a growers market supplemented with specialty items. We offer a variety of high quality produce, plants, fruits, honey, meats and specialty products which nicely complement the local merchants.”
