About Us

Our Market

Our market started in 1997 when a handful of farmers in Nelson County decided to form a private cooperative to help local residents have better access to fresh local produce. The rest is history. 23 years later, the Nelson Farmers' Market Cooperative has grown to over 50 vendors and continues to bring a wonderful variety of produce, baked goods, plants, arts, crafts and much more to our local community.

Our Community

The Nelson Farmers' Market is located in the heart of Nelson County, Va. Market grounds are in Nellysford, right beside the

entrance to Stoney Creek.

May - Oct. on Saturdays

Vendors

During this time of social distancing, our farmers are going the extra mile to ensure our community still has access to fresh food. The vendors listed below have platforms for customers to place pre-orders for Saturday deliveries at the Nelson Farmers' Market grounds in Nellysford as well as having fresh food available for on-site sales.

Stay Safe. Stay Healthy. Stay Informed.

Hours: 8am - 12pm

Onsite Sales (no touch, pre-bagged) as well as Pre-Order Delivery

The Governor's Executive Order 65 allows farmers markets to have onsite sales!

Of course, there are still some safety measures which still need to be in place

for the success and safety of everyone attending.

Social distancing on market grounds. 6 ft

One way foot traffic under the tent.

Traffic may need to be restricted.

We ask everyone to remain patient and work together to achieve smooth traffic flow.

No animals/pets under the tent.
