By Kendra Hall, Manzanita Farmers Market Manager
Did you know that the Manzanita Farmers Market is truly a Farmers market? As residents of Manza-Whee-Lem, we are blessed with the abundance of Local Farm participation. We have a resource that we can all be truly proud to share with the world.
Fifteen years and going strong. If you have not been over to shop, let me tell you about what you are missing out on. We have lots of locally grown produce from Moon River Farms, Mountains to Rivers, KingFisher and Josi’s Farms, to name a few.
We have Northcoast Micro Greens, eggs, cheese wine, local cranberries and bread from Wolf Moon, mushrooms, beautiful flowers and stone fruit, berries and Neah-Kah-Nie Smokehouse smoked salmon, Lance’s Farm Vittles bringing local grown beef, lamb and pork.
This year, we have added Dory caught fish and crab , Netarts bay oysters from our neighbors in South County.
The market has lots of local artisans, jewelry, clay creations and lots of bright shiny things to dazzle your eyes. The Market is bigger than ever. And there’s music and food, too!
We want you to know that we are SNAP, EBT, Oregon Trail card friendly, and we participate in the Double up food bucks program. We can stretch your SNAP dolllars from $20 to $40 just for using your card at the market. Come by the information booth and have our specialist Karen explain the program to you.. Let’s stretch that food dollar and double for produce purchases.
Bring the whole family and enjoy the joys of belonging to a wonderful Safe community. Listen to live music, have a bite to eat.
We are located just off Hwy. 101 on Manzanita Avenue, behind the Underhill Plaza from 4 to 7 pm every Friday until the middle of September.
