It's still a little ways away, but I'm getting super excited for this years Rocky Butte farmers market season! I'm curious to see who our new farmers and makers will be and looking forward to welcoming back some vendors from 2021.  

This year, the Rocky Butte Farmers Market is partnering with Sparrowhawk Native Plants and Dharma Rain to bring more native plants to the communities of Rocky Butte. We're hoping to see thousands of native plants into our communities - while raising money for our beloved neighborhood market! This event is helping to raise funds for our market's transition to a weekly cadence. 

There are 2 ways you can be a farmers market supporter:
1) order plants beginning 2/15 and mark your pick-up location as Dharma Rain. (Save the date!)
2) sign up to assist in plant distribution at Dharma Rain.

We're shifting into a weekly format! 

That's right! After a bit of deliberation and a lot of thought and planning, the RBFM team has decided to expand the market to occur every week beginning this June! It was clear that our monthly format was well received but that patrons wanted more. Concurrently we found that many of our vendors, as well as vendors who we're wanting to attract, are hoping for an increase in market frequency. It was clear that going weekly was the right direction for us to take. 

We're returning to the Mannahouse Church parking lot at the base of Rocky Butte - 9200 NE Fremont St. Our market will run Saturdays from June 4th through September 24th, 9am - 1pm.

Our vendor application will go live the beginning of February. Please pass on the word to your favorite farmer or food maker. We are looking for new vendors to join us!

Good news: we're back! After a lot of thought, patience and a number of planning sessions, we are thrilled to tell you that we will return to producing farmers markets this coming summer and fall. COVID safety measures are in place.

Starting in June 2021, Rocky Butte Farmers Market will host five monthly markets providing access to affordable, seasonal, and locally grown foods and artisan products to Northeast Portland’s historically underserved Madison South, Roseway, and Sumner neighborhoods. These markets will take place the second Saturday of each month, June through October, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the spacious parking lot of Mannahouse Church (9200 NE Fremont Street). The 2021 market dates are June 12, July 10, August 14, September 11, and October 9.
