Farmers’ Market at City Hall Plaza Opens June 23
City Hall’s plaza on 4th Avenue between Cherry and James will host a farmers’ market each Tuesday from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m., beginning June 23 through September 29, 2009. Summer brings a wonderful bounty, and City Hall Plaza will make a lively farmers’ market. Shoppers can enjoy a variety of farm-fresh produce and flowers - including berries, cherries, apricots, apples, peaches, organic greens, garlic, potatoes and more. Farmers include Alm Hill Gardens, Tiny’s Organics, Martin Family Orchards, Baird Orchards, Bao Cha Flowers, Boitano Lavender and Carnation’s Full Circle Farm.
Folks at City Hall, Seattle Municipal Tower and nearby offices will have the opportunity to enjoy the market’s fresh fruits and veggies in the neighborhood. In addition, this new market, managed by the Pike Place Market, also expands selling opportunities for local farmers and helps promote sustainable agriculture and healthy eating.
