Transition Underway for our Farmers’ Market - A Note from Dave Carter
Farmers' Market Update: A Move and a Farewell Gathering on Tuesday, June 10, 4-7pm on the Market Lot at Holy Comforter
“To everything, there is a season.” Ecclesiastes 3:1
After 14 years of offering the community fresh, local food, live music and LOTS of fun, the Broomfield Farmers’ Market at Holy Comforter is transferring ownership to the Palisade Park Amphitheater Market. Located on the west side of the Children’s Hospital North Campus at 680 W. 168th Place in Broomfield, the new market will begin on Thursday, June 5th from 4 until 7 p.m.
Please join us at the original Broomfield Farmers’ Market lot at Holy Comforter on Tuesday, June 10, from 4 until 7 p.m. to say “farewell” to the market and its volunteers and vendors, and to learn about the new market. Some of our amazing vendors from the past 14 years will be there to sell their products. We look forward to reminiscing with you there!

Our History
The Broomfield Foundation honored the Broomfield Farmers Market with the Heart of Broomfield ward in 2022. Since then, it has steadily grown into a vibrant community gathering place.
Jubilee Ministry
The Broomfield Farmers’ Market at Holy Comforter Episcopal Church at Hwy 287 and West 10th Avenue was officially designated as a Jubilee Ministry by the national Episcopal Church for its work in helping to bring healthy, locally-grown food to area residents, and especially to people in need. The National Episcopal Church created the Jubilee Ministry program two decades ago to support efforts across the nation and world to battle poverty and injustice.
Our Mission
When we launched the farmers’ market in 2011, we established the mission, “To create a destination that connects the community with healthy food and local farmers, and a destination that demonstrates the stewardship commitment of the Episcopal Church of the Holy Comforter.” From Day One, the market was never about “us,” but rather about outreach to our larger community. In 2023, for example, we distributed $2,800 in $20 vouchers to local educators during our annual Teacher Appreciation Day, provided local moms with $610 in vouchers through our partnership with Broomfield Health and Human Services through the WIC program, and continued to double purchasing power for residents on the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program funded solely through fees we received from our vendors.
