Albany Farmers' Market @ Albany, Oregon | Albany | Oregon | United States

Founded in 1978, the Albany Farmers’ Market is the oldest continuously operated open-air farmers’ market in Oregon. Nestled between Historic Downtown Albany and the beautiful park-like grounds of the Linn County Courthouse, the Albany Farmers’ Market is easy to access by foot, bicycle, car or bus and is just a few blocks from Amtrak at the historic Albany Station.

The Albany Farmers’ Market offers visitors an abundance of fresh, locally sourced food. From ripe, juicy produce to artisanal cheeses and freshly baked bread, there is something for everyone to enjoy.

The market also features the Power of Produce Club, a kids’ program for ages 5-12 that provides hands-on educational activities and promotes healthy eating habits.

Although the market has evolved over the years, it continues to honor its roots and celebrate the community’s deep connection to the land. So whether you’re a longtime resident or just passing through, come experience the magic of the Albany Farmers’ Market for yourself.
