'Tis the Season of Farmers Markets...

June in Bend begins the time when the community can gather downtown for access to a vibrant rainbow of local, fresh fruits and vegetables!

Shopping at local markets is a great way to support local commerce and family farmers who use sustainable farming techniques.

The Bend Farmers Market is open Wednesdays 3-7 pm in the heart of Bend, behind the Tower Theater in the Brooks Street Alley Way.

In order for products to be a sold at the market, items must be 100% grown, produced or collected in Oregon.

Parking can be difficult to find near Downtown during the Farmers Market. An alternative place to park is the free Centennial Parking Garage just 3 blocks away on Lava between Minnesota and Oregon.

Interestingly, there is a free Bend Bicycle Cab shuttle that runs between the market and the parking garage.

NorthWest Crossing hosts a Saturday open air market which begins June  29th and runs through September 21st. This lively market includes vendors and artisans of all sorts, along with a variety of fresh locally grown foods.
