 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 summer, American Farmland Trust gives away $15,000 in prizes (and more!) to the nation’s favorite farmers markets. Voting starts June 1st and runs through July 31.
