Call for Partners

Help Shape the Future of Colorado’s First Year Round Indoor Market

For almost twenty years, the Fort Collins Winter Farmers Market has been a cornerstone of our community, defined by two decades of Saturday morning smiles, local handshakes, and the freshest flavors of Northern Colorado. As we look ahead to our milestone 20th Anniversary Season kicking off in November 2026, we are thrilled to announce that we aren’t just celebrating where we’ve been, but where we are going. In a historic leap forward for our region, the Market is officially expanding to become Colorado’s very first year-round indoor farmers market, transitioning from a seasonal event into a permanent, 365-day community hub.

To honor this double milestone, we are reimagining our brand from the ground up to create a visual identity that bridges our historic roots with our bold new future. We are currently seeking a Colorado-based branding and design partner to lead this transformation and help us craft a brand that reflects the heart of Fort Collins while establishing us as a year-round landmark. We invite our loyal community to share this news with the visionary creatives in their lives as we search for a partner who understands our unique local culture. We are incredibly grateful for your support over the last two decades, and we cannot wait to embark on this next chapter of our story together.

We will be closing this call out very soon so act fast, we would love to hear from you!

Welcome to the Fort Collins

Winter Farmers Market

Now expanding to six summer dates

For 19 seasons, the Fort Collins Winter Farmers Market has been Northern Colorado’s home for fresh, local food and handmade goods throughout the colder months. What began as a seasonal gathering has grown into a true community hub; a place where families, neighbors, and friends come together to shop, connect, and support the growers and makers who reflect our region and the people's passions. Our indoor home at Foothills Mall has made it easy to enjoy local flavors and small‑business creativity all winter long, and that remains the heart of who we are.

This year after hearing a clear need and want from both shoppers and vendors, we’re taking a meaningful step forward. We are excited to announce beginning May 9, we’re adding six Indoor Summer Markets - the first summer extension in our long history - allowing our community to stay connected with local producers beyond the winter season. These additional dates don’t replace the Winter Market; they simply expand what we already do well, giving Northern Colorado more opportunities to shop local all while inside a comfortable, climate‑controlled space. Foothills offers a cool break from the heat, live music, and the same welcoming atmosphere our winter shoppers have grown to know and love.

By adding these six summer dates, we’re strengthening the year‑round connection between our community and the people who grow, bake, craft, and create here. It’s an evolution rooted in the same mission that has guided us since the beginning, supporting NoCo producers and making it easy for our community to choose local, no matter the season.

Meet Our Vendors

Currently accepting for Summer

Our vendors are the foundation of the Market. They include farmers, bakers, makers, and entrepreneurs who bring passion and dedication to every market day. Shopping with them means more than purchasing high-quality products—it directly supports the local economy and keeps small businesses strong.

What You’ll Find

Fresh Seasonal Produce - Seasonal vegetables, hardy greens, mushrooms, fruits, and microgreens grown in Colorado.

Handcrafted and Artisan Goods - Unique, handmade products from local artists and craftspeople, including jewelry, textiles, home décor, and candles.

Specialty Foods - Small-batch jams, baked breads, locally roasted coffee, and artisanal cheeses.

Northern Colorado Meat, Eggs, & Dairy - Farm-fresh eggs, milk, and ethically raised meats including beef, pork, and chicken from nearby farms.

Food Access & Equity

We are committed to making fresh, local food accessible to everyone in our community. Our Farmers Markets proudly accept SNAP/EBT benefits and participates in the Double Up Food Bucks (DUFB) program, provided by Nourish Colorado. DUFB allows SNAP users to double their buying power for fresh fruits and vegetables, ensuring families can bring home more of the best local food while directly supporting our farmers.

Supporting Our Community

Every visit to the Fort Collins Farmers Markets supports farmers, food producers, and artisans through the more challenging winter season. Each purchase helps keep dollars in the local economy, strengthens Northern Colorado’s food system, and connects shoppers directly with the people who grow and create their food.

The Market is family-friendly, dog-friendly, and features live music and free children’s activities, making it a welcoming Saturday tradition from November through April.

Acknowledging Our Sponsors

Our Farmers Markets are possible thanks to the support of our sponsors. Their partnership helps us provide a welcoming, accessible space for vendors and shoppers alike. Businesses interested in reaching an engaged, community-focused audience are invited to learn more about sponsorship opportunities here.

Musicians and Performers

Live music is a core part of our indoor Farmers Market experience. Each Saturday, talented local musicians help create the lively, welcoming atmosphere our shoppers look forward to.

If you are a musician or performer interested in being part of the Market this season, we encourage you to contact us.
