Welcome to Empowered Community Markets!

Our story

All of a sudden… I was running a Farmers Market!

In June of 2020, right in middle of the chaos that was the beginning of the world pandemic, I was asked if I would run the Daybreak Farmers Market, along with another lady from my community - whom without I would have been lost. The market, which was in it’s third season, thrived that summer! For many it was a way to get out of the house to safely purchase fresh produce, and to do some fun shopping. Our reputation for having fabulous, high-quality vendors grew, and people started coming from neighboring communities.

By the end of the season I knew I had found my passion.

In 2023 my cousin Rachel Hoffman joined to help run additional markets, and together we’ve created excellent, organized, high-quality markets.

We love our vendors! We love the relationships we build with them. We love when they are successful! Their success is our success. We love bringing food, produce, jewelry, home décor, and so much more to our communities, and the communities love us being there. We strive to make our events happy places where people want to be.

We are always on the lookout for high-quality artisan goods, fresh produce, and delicious food - so if you’re a vendor that is looking to find events, check out our vendor page for more information. If you’re looking to do some great shopping, be sure to come to one of our markets!
