Community Food Connections operates the Downtown Phoenix Farmers Market on Saturday mornings year-round. There are several other large-scale markets located in the valley – google is your friend here!

We no longer have an online store for ordering food. However, we do have an online store through the Shop Local First platform. We currently sell market bucks online, which act as a form of gift cards for the market (they make great gifts). Any vendor at the market can accept them!

Purchase Market Bucks Here

DTPHX Farmers Market Bucks can be used at ANY vendor at the Downtown Phoenix Farmers Market. Give the gift of fresh, locally grown produce, meats, bread, pastries, delicious burritos, jewelry, soaps, and more.

They can be ordered online and shipped or purchased at our Information Booth on Saturdays.

Yes! We validate tickets for 1 hour at the parking garage located a block south of the market: 555 E Fillmore Street. You can pick up your validation from our Info Booth after parking!

Find more info here.

DPFM accepts applications from local businesses throughout the year. The market is currently only accepting food vendors. However, we encourage all vendors to apply online here. Applications are reviewed on a seasonal basis, we ask for your patience.

We have a healthy and diverse selection of vendors who prepare food on-site. Bring your appetite and chill with family/friends in the shaded dining areas located throughout the market.

Yes! We have large recycle bins located at the southern and northern entrances. Do not throw in plastic film or soiled containers. You can wash out soiled containers with one of our water dispensers in the dining area (NE corner).

For composting, check in with our friends at Recycled City at the northern entrance. They’ll educate you on how and what to compost with their service!

Our wonderful volunteer base allows us to meet our goals of supporting locally grown and prepared foods by maintaining successful farmers markets and educating the public on the importance of buying locally. Volunteers are essential to every aspect of our mission and we simply couldn’t do what we do without them. If you are interested in becoming a market volunteer, please e-mail us directly [email protected]

Pets are allowed. Though, they should be kept on a short leash and by your side. Always come prepared with doggy bags in case they can’t hold it! Please avoid bringing them in the summer to reduce exposure to hot asphalt and excessive heat. We recommend covering their paws if you bring them in the later hours. We have a water bowl (cool water) that is refilled every hour near the information booth.

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as the Food Stamp Program, administers benefits through an Electronic Bank Transfer (EBT) system. SNAP recipients receive their benefits electronically and access them with their EBT card at the Market Information Booth in exchange for wooden $1 tokens that can be used directly with vendors at the market. The SNAP Program is a federally funded USDA Food and Nutrition Services program.

Customers can currently receive unlimited Double Up Food Buck matching tokens on all purchases for fresh local produce. Read more here.

To learn how to signup or check your eligibility for EBT, read more here.

No cash? No problem. For regular market purchases, Our vendors will accept all major forms of debit and credit cards directly. Some even accept payment through apps such as Venmo & Cashapp. Occasionally vendors may have issues running cards, and you may be directed to pay for goods at the information booth.

The Farmers Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) is a state-administered federal nutrition program. FMNP provides $30 to shop local produce for families enrolled in the Women Infants & Children (WIC) program and $50 to eligible seniors.

These federal funds are specifically distributed in order to purchase locally produced fresh fruit and vegetables directly from authorized farmers and farmers markets.

We also offer coupons for Seniors who meet FMNP eligibility requirements but aren’t enrolled in CFSP. Simply fill out a self-declaration form at our info booth on Saturdays!

The season runs from February through November. Coupons are distributed from February to September.
