Fort Collins & Loveland Farmers' Markets 
History of the CAMC Farmers' Market
The number of farmers' markets is growing across America as more consumers become interested in buying fresher produce and supporting local farmers. An added benefit is that well-run farmers' markets can be educational, and are always fun!
Along the Front Range of Colorado, agricultural land is being turned into housing and shopping at an alarming rate. Concerned citizens might support agriculture in general, but don't understand how they can help their local farmers or ranchers. Farmers' Markets offer the consumer the opportunity to support local farmers and ranchers by purchasing fresh products directly from the producer.
CAMC was organized as a cooperative in 1984 with each member agreeing to contribute their skills to the operation and success of the market. Our purpose is to provide an opportunity for local producers of agricultural products to market their good, to promote local production of commodities and to serve as a model for other communities. We are proud members of the Colorado Farmers Market Association.

The Colorado Agricultural Marketing Cooperative offers three markets to local growers and consumers. (Emphasis on local here, as produce is restricted to Larimer, Morgan, Boulder or Weld Counties, with the exception of Western Slope fruit). Those markets are Sunday and Wednesday in Fort Collins and Tuesday in Loveland. Come and see us May through October!
