  3. 5 Highlights of the Aspen Saturday Market

5 Highlights of the Aspen Saturday Market

Aspen Saturday Market

From June to early October, booths line the streets of downtown Aspen every Saturday morning. Whether tasting sweet Palisade peaches, playing with the Aspen Animal Shelter's puppies, or chatting with fellow shoppers, enjoy relaxing mornings at the market with the backdrop of Aspen Mountain.

Aspen Saturday Market produce
  1. Fresh, Homegrown Produce and Handcrafted Goods 

From purple plums to bright orange carrots to leafy greens, a colorful display of local produce fills the market. Sweet cherries (dark red and Rainier) in the early summer, Palisade peaches from July to October, and crisp apples and pears in the fall are just a few highlights of the seasonal produce. Besides homegrown fruits and veggies, be sure to check out the variety of handcrafted ceramics, jewelry, clothing, leather goods, and more.

Aspen Saturday Market
  1. Friendly Faces

The Aspen Saturday Market is a community gathering spot for both locals and visitors. As people stroll through the market, they linger to chat with familiar faces and new ones. Whether trading information about which stand has the sweetest peaches or just catching up, the market is a fun, social outing.

Sweet Treats Aspen Saturday Market
  1. Tasty, Ready To Eat Treats

Start your day off right with a ready to eat, sweet treat in hand as you roam through the market. Freshly baked pastries, sweet and salty kettle corn, homemade ice cream, and donut bites (tucked in Conner Park), are a few favorites. 

Aspen Saturday Market
  1. Support Local Farmers and Artisans

Supporting local vendors has environmental, economic, and social benefits on our mountain town. Not only does shopping local benefit the community, one-of-a-kind, handcrafted goods serve as a fun memory of Aspen, while local produce is fresher and usually tastier. Connecting with local growers and artists is a great way to experience Aspen and be part of the community.

Summer in Aspen
