HISTORY
Teller County Farmers Market Association, (TCFMA) is a 501(c)3 organization which provides a forum for sales of local produce and items associated with agriculture, garden & food. The association, originally formed in 1990 as Woodland Park Farmers Market, is operated by volunteers and administered by a Board of Directors. It oversees two markets: Woodland Park Farmers' Market (Summer) and Woodland Park Farmers Market Holiday Market.
MISSION: to enhance the quality of life for Teller County residents and visitors by providing access to safe and affordable produce and other food, promoting agricultural land use through a direct market for growers, encouraging organic and pesticide-free growing techniques, and fostering health and well-being through community education. The summer market has been a lively and hugely popular part of Teller County life since 1991.
The Woodland Park Farmers' Market is a family friendly event, open to everybody. The market remains neutral in all matters political, social and religious. Please help us keep the market a friendly place for all who wish to visit.
