Now is the time to return to our Farmers' Market, enjoy the bounteous seasonal produce of the Pacific Northwest, and support our local growers and artisans!
Every farmers' market has its own personality, created by its unique vendors, location, and style. Below you will find a comprehensive directory to farmers' markets in the Greater Portland (Oregon) area. There is so much to discover!
Seasonal Recipes: We have a myriad of easy, delicious recipes on GHW that highlight seasonal produce, including a quick and tasty Cashew-Asparagus Pilaf, an amazing Roasted Ratatouille with pan-fried onions, a great roundup of quick pickle recipes, and our classic Fresh Blueberry Pie.
A note about COVID restrictions: As you might imagine, local farmers and craft vendors who rely on market sales for their livelihood have suffered profoundly – financially and otherwise – from COVID-19 restrictions. The Oregon Farmers Market Association has created an OFMA COVID-19 Pledge for markets to adopt as a way to inform and reassure the public that they are safe, essential marketplaces.
If you live in the US outside the Portland area, we encourage you to check the USDA National Farmers' Market Directory to find a local market in your area. You never know what kind of surprises you may find!
