The Duncan Farmers Market is held by the fountain in shady Centennial Park, right on the highway downtown. Open 8 to noon every Saturday.
Come and cool off and enjoy the fun.
The Duncan Farmers Market, founded in 2008, draws on a rich history of family farming throughout the Upper Gila River Valley. A number of small farmers as well as backyard gardeners sell at our market, and almost all the produce is grown without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Local bakers, craftspeople and authors display and sell their wares too.

In season, you can get chiles roasted right at the market -- you pick how hot you like them.
Kim Pompeo is one of the bakers whose goods have become customer favorites.
And there are often puppies or kittens offered to loving homes, or fine pairs of chickens for sale.
Everyone is welcome at our
market -- to buy, Vendor fees are scaled to small-town economics. And you can try selling at our market without risk -- the first time is free!
Contact duncanfarmersmarket@yahoo.com for market rules and fee schedule. No flea market, please.
