Opening Day!

The Farmers Market Opening Day is finally here--this Saturday at 10:00 AM. Every time I drive past the Village Green on Saturday mornings, my son says we need to stop and get pluots. Luckily, pluots and all of the wonderful produce are not so far off!

Here are the (brief) details...

The market will be open this Saturday, April 5th from 10am to 2pm. You'll find plant starts, vegetable starts, trees and perennials, plants, annual and perennial cut flower starts, culinary herbs, strawberry plants, and possibly some produce. Also, meats, eggs, dairy products, wine, chocolates, hot teas, hot lunches, art work, crafts, knife sharpening, chair massages, soap, lotions, essential oils, original drawings, homemade cutting boards, jewelry, incense, thought bubbles, and metal work!

New! Wednesday Night Farmer's Markets

The Wednesday night farmer's markets have begun! Now we have two opportunities each week to buy fresh island-grown produce and island-crafted gifts at the Village Green!! Notice that I qualified that statement with "at the Village Green," since we can also get fresh produce and u-pick items at farms around the island throughout the week! If you are interested in learning more about where you can get fresh fruits and veggies on the island, stop by the VIGA (Vashon Island Growers Association) booth at the Farmer's Market for a list of island farm stands and more information. You can also sign up to be on their mailing list!
