Farmers & Crafts Market of Las Cruces

“We're in town from Oshkosh, WI visiting family who suggested we check out the Farmers Market as we're art and craft fans as well as the food one finds at a Farmers Market. Started at Organ Mountain Outfitters, that is a great store whose profits are partially shared feeding children and more. I love shopping local but it's always more enjoyable when the business shares it wealth locally as well. There was so much to see and do. I very much enjoyed the local musicians sharing their talents. There was a guitarist playing a sort of bluesy tune and a young man singing a beautiful Mexican melody in full dress. I'm sure he was singing about a lost love or 🤷‍♀️. It was lovely. Ate a breakfast burrito from Cocina Mexicana Express at the recommendation of a family member. Truly the BEST food truck food ever. If you haven't waited in his line for anything on his menu you're missing out. I will warn you, the portions are not small. I'm thinking about going again next weekend just to have this one more time before leaving town. Found a lot of great artisans sharing jewelry, clothing, paintings, the best and most affordable wax melts from Smelly Sam's (I think that's their name). They had scents I've never smelled before and I've been using a wax melting pot for years. It's the perfect size Market, not too big you don't enjoy and just enough to have something for everyone.”

“This is one of our favorite regular adventures. Even though we live in El Paso my wife and I regularly come out here with our dogs to enjoy a nice relaxing morning walking around Main street and checking out the vendors. They have some great vendors, everyone we have dealt with is warm and friendly and Las Cruces has done a great job setting up a successful farmer's market. There is plenty of public parking nearby, there are public restrooms easily accessible and there are loads of local vendors who carry genuinely interesting/cool/neat local wares. From fresh veggies, to custom jewelry, locally sourced crystals and all sorts of handmade goods we always find something new and interesting to check out when we go out there and they are very pet friendly so that makes it all the more fun. I highly recommend coming out to the LC Farmer's Market.”

“We absolutely LOVE this farmers market. Would give 10 stars if I could. Anything you need you will find here. Farm fresh beef, eggs, vegetables, flowers, plants, mushrooms, baked goods. Crafts for sale such as 3d printed items, crotched items, wood engraving, leather goods, jewelry, art, honey, jams and preserves, variety of peppers. They have areas for the kids with chalk and bubbles and even a splash area off the main strip. Artists performing live music as well. Don’t eat before you come to the market as there are so many fun and yummy food trucks and restaurants to try! Don’t skip the mini donuts or forget about the FREE natural history museum for kiddos!”

“Las Cruces Farmers & Crafts Market did not disappoint! Plenty of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, micro-greens and herbs for anyone's taste. The food and drink carts gave lots of choices for our hungry crew. The crafts range from glass to wood to yarn to plastics. Adult and youth are there to sell their wares. Street performers were staggered throughout so they did not overlap. In addition to all of that, there were stands available to provide information on gardening, water conservation and one political stand. I'll return next Saturday. I can't go when they are open on Wednesday.”

“This is such a cool experience and very dog friendly. I would advise to show up early specially if you want to buy fresh produce, that is the first thing that goes right away. I loved walking around and checking out the different vendors, but it was really nice to see tons of musicians throughout the street doing their thing. This is definitely an all ages activity kind of farmers market.”

“This was a large farmers market. Several blocks of vendors and food. A lot of handmade jewelry, pottery, paintings, photographs, just to name a few. Live music playing. Every vendor we spoke to was very nice. On this day, there was one vendor selling produce. It closes at 1pm, so get there early to take it all in.”

“Fantastic Farmer's Market, 7 blocks long with produce, crafts, food trucks, and music/street performers! Very leashed-dog friendly, as are the delicious breweries on Main St. My pup and I drove 3 hours to visit (and camp) and it did not disappoint.”

“Great place to chill, a lot of different creative people. There’s street singers/performers. Amazing food and museums.”
