7 Best Farmers Markets Near Colorado Springs in 2026

Your local guide from Woodland Park to Falcon — updated dates, hours, and locations

Colorado Springs doesn't have one farmers market — it has a whole season's worth of them. From the bustling Saturday morning crowds of Old Colorado City to the quiet Sunday charm of Cordera, the Pikes Peak region turns out for fresh produce, local makers, and a good excuse to be outside. Whether you're a longtime local or just exploring the neighborhoods you might call home, here's where to find the season's best markets in 2026.

Most markets run from late May or June through early-to-mid October, so there's plenty of season left to explore. Dates and times are confirmed for 2026 as of this writing, but markets can adjust their schedules — it's always smart to double-check a market's social media before you head out.

1. Old Colorado City Farmers Market

The hometown favorite. Set along the historic streets of Old Colorado City near Bancroft Park, this is one of the largest and most beloved markets in the region — produce, baked goods, flowers, and handmade goods from local vendors, all wrapped in classic Westside charm.

When: Saturdays, June 6 – October 17, 2026  |  Time: 7:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Where: Bancroft Park, 2408 W. Colorado Ave., Colorado Springs

2. Woodland Park Farmers Market

Worth the drive up Ute Pass. Established in 1990, this award-winning market sets up in Memorial Park with a strong lineup of growers, makers, and food vendors — a great Friday outing if you're exploring the Teller County side of the region.

When: Fridays, June – September 2026  |  Time: 8:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Where: Memorial Park, Center St. & Henrietta Ave., Woodland Park

3. Monument Hill Farmers Market

A great option for anyone living north toward Monument and Palmer Lake. Saturday mornings bring local produce, baked goods, and crafts to this small-town favorite.

When: Saturdays, season runs roughly May – October 2026  |  Time: 8:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Where: 66 S. Jefferson St., Monument

4. Cordera Farmers Market

A true neighborhood market — relaxed, family-friendly, and right in the heart of the Cordera community in north Colorado Springs. Around 35 vendors rotate through with fresh produce, baked goods, and handmade items.

When: Sundays, May 24 – September 6, 2026  |  Time: 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM
Where: Cordera Clubhouse, 11894 Grandlawn Cir., Colorado Springs

5. Black Forest Backyard Market

The largest producers-only market in the greater Colorado Springs area — meaning every vendor grows, bakes, or makes what they sell. Expect 60-70+ vendors, live music, food trucks, and a genuinely community-driven atmosphere out in Black Forest.

When: Saturdays, March 14 – December 12, 2026 (peak season roughly May – October)  |  Time: 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Where: 6845 Shoup Rd., Black Forest

6. Banning Lewis Ranch Community Market

Part farmers market, part summer concert series. Thursday evenings at Vista Park bring local produce and handmade goods, with live music on select nights extending the market into a full community event.

When: Thursdays, May 28 – August 27, 2026  |  Time: 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM (8:00 PM on concert nights)
Where: Vista Park, 8833 Vista Del Pico Blvd., Colorado Springs

7. Smith Family Farm (Falcon)

More farm stand than traditional market, but worth the trip east to Falcon. This multi-generational, family-owned stand brings fresh produce, beef, honey, and seasonal specialty items straight from the source, with community-minded touches like donating excess produce locally.

When: Seasonal, typically July – October  |  Where: Falcon, CO

🏡 A Local's Tip from Les

One of my favorite things about showing buyers around the Westside is pointing out the Old Colorado City Farmers Market as part of the neighborhood lifestyle — it's a walkable Saturday tradition for a lot of our clients. If a strong local food scene and walkable community events are on your wish list, that's worth factoring into which Colorado Springs neighborhood is the right fit for you.
