Farmers Market at the Fort

Buy Local. Eat Fresh.

Farmer's Markets reflect local culture and economy, the purpose of a physical retail market is to feature foods sold directly by farmers to consumers. Farmers' markets typically consist of varying vendors and local products.

The aroma of fresh cut flowers and herbs will fill the air at The Fort, join Cowboy Trails Farms at the Old Las Vegas Fort, this coming Wednesday September 10th from 2-6pm and fill your basket with fresh produce, and farm fresh eggs, herbs and organic specialty items. There are crafts for the kids and recipes that will keep your weekday dinners interesting.

While on site for the Farmer's Market, tour the Mormon adobe fort, that was established more than 150 years ago that is now part of the Nevada State Parks and is remnant of the original adobe fort, which contains interpretive displays. The Visitor Center contains exhibits on the history of the site original , as well as historic artifacts of the period. Historic interpretation is important and will remain the focus of the park even with events such as the Farmer's Market. The Old Las Vegas Mormon Fort is located in downtown Las Vegas, at the intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard and Washington Avenue.
