“At the Farmers Markets, quality surpasses everything. It’s neighbors helping neighbors.”
The Chaffee County Winter Farmers Market is held for 6 Saturdays beginning November 14th 2026 and proceeds through December 19th from 10 am - 1 pm at the Chaffee County Fairgrounds (10165 County Road 120). Hosting over 40 vendors, this upbeat and lively indoor market extends our farmers market season by offering our favorite seasonal winter produce like squash, greens, potatoes, and apples to us through December. Not to mention we have so many amazing local artisan vendors selling their goods and crafts that make incredible holiday gifts.

Salida’s Farmers Market takes place at Alpine Park, a centrally located 2-acre park adjacent to Salida’s vibrant downtown. Filled with grass and trees, Alpine Park provides an easy and ideal retreat. This community-focused event invites you to fill your basket with fresh local food, allow your kids to play on the playground, and spread out a blanket while live music fills the air.
