“The market is one of my favorite things about La Grande. Farm fresh produce, plants, sauces, baked goods plus live music and lots of smiling faces.”
“Quality fresh produce, great live music, a really sociable time carousing amongst the booths/vendors—visiting with the locals & meeting new friends and all that good stuff!”
The mission of the La Grande Farmers' Market is to enhance the economic sustainability of our region's farms by providing a venue for the exchange of quality locally grown goods while creating a vibrant community gathering place.

Meet the Assistant Manager!
There’s a newish face behind the table on Tuesday markets, our Assistant Manager Meghan Moore. Meghan works primarily to manage the Tuesday market and supports Saturday market as needed. She brings a passion for local food and is excited to help LGFM grow.
In her personal life she enjoys trail running, finding free fruit and figuring out how to live in a converted school bus with her family. Come say hi to Meghan!

Say Hi to one of our amazing volunteers!
This, ladies and gents, is Lance Nielsen. He is the husband of Candi, our Farmers Market manager. You may have seen him at the Info Booth in his signature red shirt handing out tokens and taking payments and being an all-around great help at the market.
Lance is from Union, Oregon and grew up there after living in all kinds of places in Oregon, as his dad was in road construction. His family settled on a beautiful piece of property above the Union Cemetary, where they raised sheep, chickens, horses, turkeys, and had an amazing garden each year. He and his wife (Candi) and their 2 daughters moved to La Grande in 1997, where they raised their family. Lance is an EOU graduate (class of 2019) and loves spending time fishing, hunting, and traveling. Please stop by and say HI to Lance!!
Tickets will be available soon!
