Farmers Market Log

The Puget Sound region has fantastic farmers markets. I cannot think of a better way to buy my fruits and vegetables than directly from the person who actually had a hand in producing them. Since spring is now here the areas farmers markets are starting up again. I am going to put together a series of posts about the various markets and the communities that host them.

Without further introduction allow me to share with you the Gig Harbor Farmers Market.

The Gig Harbor Farmers Market started today and will run every Saturday through September 27th.

 

Gig Harbor Farmers Market

Located at the Kimball Drive Park and Ride running from 8:30 to 2:00

Driving directions from Tacoma Take the Narrows Bridge on Highway 16. Take the Wollochet Drive exit. Right at the first light. Take the next right on Kimball Drive. You will see the signs and the market will be on your right.

Gig Harbor is just across the Narrows Bridge from Tacoma yet it seems worlds away. Once a small fishing village Gig Harbor has grown in recent years as more and more people find that they want the quiet and slower paced lifestyle yet want to be by the “big city”

The Gig Harbor Farmers Market has over 100 vendors offering fresh flowers, produce, wood crafts, food, jewelry and other handcrafted items. There are activities to keep the kids busy. Hot food to help keep you warm during our crisp spring days.

Downtown Market at Skansie Park is held every Wednesday June through August from 11am to 4pm So when we are in the peak of the produce season you will have two opportunities to come and support local vendors in Gig Harbor.

If you would like more information directly from the Gig Harbor Farmers Market they have a website that provides a list of entertainers and other information.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope to see you out at our local farmers markets this year!

Best,

Scott
