When most farmers markets close for the season, where do you go to get fresh eggs, milk, cheese, bread, Colorado produce, and that great feeling of community that you get at a farmers market?
Check out Four Seasons Farmers and Artisans Market – we are open 6 days a week, every week of the year. Picture an outdoor farmers market, but indoors! Saturday 9am-2pm is our Market Day, when all the vendors are at their booths to chat, pass out samples, and share what they have made, grown and created. Handmade soap and other skin care, fermented foods, t-shirts, alpaca wool hats and mittens, and more!
During the week almost all of the same products are for sale – you can pick up fresh eggs and some Colorado onions and potatoes, salsa to put on top, a quiche for tomorrow’s lunch and that gift you need to buy, all on your way home in the evening!
See you at the market soon!

The Four Seasons Market has a Little Free Library located by the windows on the East side of the market. Many, many people have brought in books and magazines to share, and there is a wonderful selection of books and magazines, including gardening books, fiction of all kinds, magazines ranging from National Geographic to Sunset to Yes! magazine, as well as a good number of kids books. If you’re looking for a quiet place during the day or early evening (Tues- Friday, 12-6pm) for a cup of coffee and a good book or to meet with a friend, this is your new favorite place!

Four Seasons Farmers and Artisans Market is dedicated to giving consumers an opportunity to support local entrepreneurs, farms and gardens and to benefit by purchasing fresh, safely produced food at a fair price year round through our new indoor market. We are also committed to providing a year round option for small businesses to sell their products and maintain a stable source of income.
There are no longer any year round indoor markets in the Denver area aside from the corporate stores. It is essential that businesses operate profitably, and we are no different, but profit making is not our primary objective in raising healthy animals and vegetables. As the agricultural trend from the small family farm to corporately controlled operations has occurred, the same attention to animal health, safely grown crops and vegetables has diminished in favor of profit making. While we all benefit from efficient food production, food safety is often forfeited to achieve profit goals. Small producers generally are diligent in their efforts to be accountable for their products. It is much more difficult to hold large, cumbersome corporate entities equally accountable. Even though they make enormous contributions to providing communities with healthy, safe food, small producers struggle to thrive and grow, because they cannot obtain funding to buy new equipment, expand into a new market or consolidate debt. Larger corporate farms can obtain financing for nearly any purpose including purchasing the small farm next door. Yet the products from these operations is not guaranteed safe, it is not guaranteed to be healthy. Consumers can only guess as to how the food they buy from them was produced
By buying fresh, local food, consumers gain some control over what they eat. And by sharing information and resources, the urban and rural communities can work together to improve the safety and quality of food for all.

I love Farmer’s Markets. Some of my favorite memories are of joining my in-laws on a late summer’s day for a trip to the farmer’s market. I looked forward to those days more than they probably know. I’m not even sure they remember the trips we made. On those days, we would climb into the car and head north of Denver to visit the farms. I bought tomatoes and corn, beans, cauliflower, and cabbage. The cabbage turned into homemade sauerkraut, which my husband loves.
I’m so thankful for the farmer’s market this year. When in season, I buy peaches nearly every weekend. I make peach cobbler, peach ice cream, peach-mango salsa, and grilled peaches. Peaches. That’s where I’ll start my list.
I Support local farmers and artisans. Did you know that 68% of funds spent in locally owned, independent businesses returns directly to the community? We should all buy from local small businesses when possible.
