What are some pro tips for shopping at PFM?
- Using exact change/small bills is encouraged when paying with cash. Bank debit/credit cards are accepted by some vendors and can be used at the Information Booth to buy tokens. Sorry, PFM does not accept American Express.
- Bring your own grocery and produce bags, cart or basket. PFM reusable totes and canvas bags are sold at the Information Booth. Or stop by our Sustainability Booth to borrow a reusable tote, produce bag and/or mug.
- Shop early for the best selection.
- Produce is seasonal, so buy it when you see it. Ask the farmer how much longer it will be available.
- Ask questions about the products – know your food.
- Meet and get to know the farmers. They’ll teach you how to use produce that is unfamiliar and offer recipe suggestions and storage tips.
- Bring a cooler with ice or a cold pack during the hot months. Insulated totes are sometimes sold at the Information Booth.
- All meats are sold frozen.
Enjoy shopping local and seasonal. Be inspired to try new things!
Can I bring my dog to the market?
No. We do not allow pets at PFM. We love furry friends and understand they are considered part of the family, but we prioritize the physical safety of our customers and the safety of our vendors’ food products above all else.
We welcome ADA service dogs specifically trained to aid a person with a disability. Please note: a support dog does not qualify as an ADA service dog.
Can I use my credit or debit card at the market?
Some vendors accept credit/debit cards directly. For those who don’t, we have you covered! Visit the Information Booth, and we’ll swipe your credit or debit card and hand you wooden green tokens to spend at any booth. We charge a $1 convenience fee for debit card transactions and a 3% service charge for credit card transactions. We do not accept American Express.
Here’s how tokens work: We sell them in $1 and $5 increments at the Information Booth. You can spend them at any vendor booth on anything. Treat them just like cash! Every vendor accepts green wooden tokens and gives full cash change at the time of purchase. Tokens never expire, but we cannot refund them for cash once purchased.
What are FMNP and WIC vouchers and does PFM accept them?
PFM is an approved farmers market for the Arizona Farmers Market Nutrition Program (FMNP). The FMNP provides eligible low-income seniors and WIC participants with $50 in coupons to buy Arizona-grown fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs. Each coupon booklet contains $5 coupon increments.
Starting in 2026, participants must apply before visiting the market. Apply online or request a paper application by calling (833) 836-8253, ext. 4. After approval, you’ll receive your coupons by mail or you can pick them up at the market.
Please note: The $50 match coupon booklets offered in prior years are no longer available due to lack of funding.
Look for the AZFMNP signs posted at participating farmer booths.
Do you accept SNAP? What’s Double Up?
Yes, we accept SNAP/EBT! Visit the Information Booth and our staff will swipe your EBT card for the amount you choose and hand you $1 blue SNAP tokens. You can use blue tokens to purchase cold food and drinks. Ask our staff if you’re unsure what qualifies. Vendors cannot give change on SNAP purchases, so bring pocket change.
Yes, we participate in Double Up Food Bucks Arizona! PFM is the only Double Up Food Bucks site in Yavapai County. After you swipe your SNAP/EBT card at the Information Booth, our staff will match your SNAP dollars one-for-one. Spend any amount and receive that same amount free to spend on fresh fruits, vegetables, dried beans, edible plants and herbs, nuts, and seeds. There is no daily limit on what you can double. We also accept SUN Bucks (Summer EBT) cards.
Look for the Double Up signs at participating vendor booths, and ask our staff if you have questions about what qualifies. Vendors cannot give change on Double Up purchases, so bring pocket change. Learn more about the Double Up Arizona program here.
Does PFM operate all the farmers markets in the area?
No. We currently operate one year-round market in Prescott on Saturdays at 900 Iron Springs Road. In the past, we operated in other Prescott locations, ran additional markets in Prescott Valley, and hosted summer markets in Downtown Prescott and Chino Valley.
PFM is a producer-only market. Every vendor must grow or raise everything they sell at market within Arizona. For processed foods and crafts, vendors must make everything they sell at the market using a percentage of Arizona-grown ingredients. We give preference to farmers and ranchers operating within Yavapai County. By holding these strict standards, we support local agriculture and provide a market through which small-scale farmers can sell their goods directly to customers.
We do not operate other farmers markets, food truck events, or craft fairs.
How long has PFM been in operation?
Prescott Farmers Market started in 1997 with just a few farmers and a whole lot of energy and enthusiasm. Today, our nonprofit operates year-round and hosts over 60 vendors at the Prescott summer and winter markets. Browse our vendors here. Every week, thousands of customers visit to find fresh fruits, vegetables, meats, eggs, and locally crafted artisan foods. We support local agriculture by connecting you directly with the growers who bring you the highest quality locally grown food.
How is the operation of PFM funded?
PFM operates as a 501(c)3 nonprofit with a dedicated paid staff and an all-volunteer Board of Directors. We fund our work through grants, vendor fees, fundraising events, donations, and countless hours of volunteer time.
How do I become a PFM vendor?
We accept online vendor interest forms for for farmers, small growers and gardeners, prepared food and agricultural craft vendors, and nonprofit organizations throughout the season. If we invite you to apply, you’ll receive a new vendor application before each market season begins, typically in March and October. Want the full details on becoming a vendor, including our Rules and Regulations, visit here.
How do I become a PFM Guest Artist?
We invite local artists to join the market a limited number of times per season as a Guest Artist. We send applications before each market season begins, typically in March and October. If you have questions about the Guest Artist program or would like to be added to the list to receive an application, please email us.
How do I become a PFM volunteer?
Volunteers power every aspect of our mission and we simply couldn’t operate and continue to grow without them. PFM is more than just a marketplace; it’s where friends and neighbors gather, where families connect with community resources, and where customers meet people growing and preparing their food. When you volunteer at PFM, you support your community, champion our local economy, and strengthen our food system. Our wonderful volunteers make all of this possible. Want to join them?
