Fairmount Neighborhood Farmers' Market

Fairmount Neighborhood Farmers' Market is a Sunday market in Eugene with roots in a neighborhood conversation that started its inception in 2010. The market is closely tied to the Fairmount neighborhood and to Southern Willamette Valley ingredients, with its own materials framing the market alongside cooking inspiration built around local produce. That combination gives the market a clear shape: a neighborhood-scale stop where vegetables, fruit, meat, poultry, and a handful of long-named participants define the mix. The market’s story is also unusually specific to Eugene, beginning with Karen, a Fairmount resident, parent at Edison Elementary School and Roosevelt Middle School, and faculty member at the University of Oregon.

What you'll find there

Camas Swale Farm’s produce list gives the clearest picture of the market’s food focus: seasonal fruits and vegetables running from collard greens and winter squash to apples, tomatillos, cherry tomatoes, and green beans. Around that core, the vendor roster stretches into pastured meats, poultry, seafood, beans and grains, and a few named participants that reflect the market’s longer history across multiple seasons.

Know before you go

No dogs are allowed, and the market does not list restrooms among its visitor amenities. Those are the two clearest on-site planning details available for a Sunday visit. The market runs only one weekly shopping window, on Sunday from 10 am to 2 pm, so timing matters more here than at a market with multiple weekly days. Payment methods are not clearly stated, and there is no confirmed SNAP/EBT detail in the market materials provided. What is clear is the market’s neighborhood grounding: it grew from a Fairmount conversation and is presented as a source of Southern Willamette Valley ingredients and cooking inspiration tied to that local food landscape.
