• WHO WE ARE:The Santa Fe Farmers Market Institute is a nonprofit educational organization founded in 2002 to support the Santa Fe Farmers Market. The Market originated in a parking lot with six vendors in 1968 and has since grown to be one of the oldest, largest and most successful growers markets in the country.
