 America’s Farmers Market Celebration ™ (AFMC) is the only annual ranking of the top farmers markets in the United States as voted on by the public. Since 2008, the AFMC has highlighted the important role farmers markets play in communities across the nation while celebrating the farmers, staff, and volunteers that make markets happen. 

While they’ve long served as pillars of local food in urban centers and town squares, in recent years, farmers markets have gained the national recognition they deserve as essential businesses that power farmers and communities to thrive.
 
 
 

Welcome!

Each year, American Farmland Trust gives away $15,000 in awards (and more!) to the nation’s favorite farmers markets. Voting starts August 1 and runs through September 30. 




Are you a farmers market manager? Is your farmers market listed in the USDA Farmers Market Directory? The AFMC database and interactive map on markets.farmland.org syncs with the USDA Farmers Market Directory.
Get ready for this year's event by making sure that your information (hours, days, location, etc.) is listed and up to date for the year ahead.
