This is one of the year-round farmer's markets in Seattle--every Saturday from 9am to 2pm. A bit larger from May to October, but always good

Johnny Peace

All year round fun. Hot weather, grab freshly made popsicles and hang out around live music . Cold weather, grab hot curries or soups to warm up. And the products are always in the best shape.

Miraj Shah

The best produce in the city . Get samish bay cheese , heirloom tomatoes , fresh berries (Hayton or elsewhere), Fuji apples , duck eggs (Sea Breeze farm ). Make sure to get Ellenos and a poem!
