Farmers And Crafts Market of Las Cruces

The best farmers craft market in Las Cruces, NM!!! I bought sooo many things from paintings, knitted stuffed animals and handmade hair clips. The Farmers Market took us about 7 blocks to pass all the variety or vendors and it felt like it was never ending!! 50 years this farmers market has been operating with over 200 vendors!! There is so much to see!! Sometimes I feel that these farmers and craft markets are overlaps of artists selling the same products. This time, I felt that the artists had their own unique style and decently priced as well!! Live music too

The Las Cruces farmers and crafts market is wonderful!!Parking - easy, just stay was or west of Main Street. Crafts - everything you can think of. Jewelry, pottery, Nick-Nacks, clothing, leather work.Farming - lots of pecans, chilies, spices and salsa. But also a few (3-4) produce stands all with quality food. One local meat supplier. Food - lots of food trucks and food carts. Also lots of packaged food and lots of bakers. All in all this is an amazing market!! Oh and it spans a good 3-4 city blocks when the weather is optimum. Super cold or windy days and extreme hot days will cause the vendor options to shrink but when the weather is nice (most of the time here) it's full and packed!! Come check it out!!

We went to the farmers market yesterday. It was packed! We got lucky and found street parking right away. I was on the hunt for some beef jerky. We didn't find any. But we did get a homemade pastry. It was delicious. Lots of people brought their dogs. It was fun to see them. It was hot out but we were prepared with sunblock and bottled waters. It was a fun day!

Loved everything I saw. Very cute! Dogs were there, but it was far too hot for their paws, so if you have a pup they need shoes. Everything from soaps to my fabulous glitter tattoo!

We went on a Wednesday and only about 4 or 5 booths. Was kind of disappointed since we came from El Paso to go here. The plus is that we ended up going to a lot of super cool museums! I think maybe if we had come on a Saturday it would have been better.

Maybe it's because it was winter, but the Wednesday morning market at Plaza De Las Cruces was deadsville. A bust. It was sunny and not too cold. There were a total of four vendors and a single food truck. I recommend doing what you have to in order to check out the Saturday edition, instead. I'm told both days are busier in summer.

This is a fun, relaxing Saturday morning outing for the family to take in all the local, wonderful art and creativity of Las Cruces. The weather is often pretty mild and very sunny (even when it's cold). There are so many booths to check out, local businesses, opportunities to interact with other consumers, and music/dance performers to appreciate. This is a family favorite thing to do. My favorite booths are the artists and photographers who share their portrayals of the Organ Mountains, and of course the artisan bakers and coffee makers. My only disappointment with it all is that the booths that sell food are not allowed to give samples. This is the first market EVER I've been to in the entire country where that is a rule. Other than that, it's great, we'll still go and we'll still support the local businesses and performers.

It's nice to go and walk around if it's a nice day. Not much produce, mostly taco trucks and cheap jewelry. A few good spots hidden in there. Found some good spice mixes, and stopped by Matteos for delicious refreshing drinks. Tons of vendors, tons of people walking around. Worth it if you need something to do on a Saturday morning. I guess it's open Wednesday too, not sure if its as big or not.

We went in November, so there were very few vendors. Nice location, easy parking. This would be a great venue in warmer/more seasonal weather.

Fun! Lots of really unique vendors, mix of music, only tried the churros truck which were delicious!! Vendors very friendly and enjoyed talking about their crafts or food. Visiting from out of town. Very laid back and enjoyable!
