Growing Food & Community

The Durango Farmers Market invites you to our first annual Farmers Table: Growing Food & Community—an evening of chef–farm pairings, seasonal small-plate tastings, and local storytelling. Stroll the courtyard as plates arrive, meet the growers and producers behind the ingredients, and connect with neighbors who care about a resilient local food system. Enjoy farm-fresh cocktails (plus zero-proof options) and live music by Sharon and the Boots.
