Welcome to the Pasco Farmers Market website!

"CHEF BUDDIES: COOKING WITH KIDS" WILL RETURN IN THE SPRING

Our Cooking Classes for kids will return next Spring (2012), with Beverly Matthews teaching simple recipes to children and teens.  Learning how to prepare simple meals or snacks is a valuable tool for children and teens to have - not to mention they also use math skills while measuring out the ingredients, and learn safe, independence in the kitchen.  Of course, you always get to eat what you make in our classes!  Stay tuned here on our website (or Facebook) for more details as it gets closer to our opening in May, 2012.  Ages 3 and up are welcome;  children ages 3-5, please have a parent or adult help you in the class.  :-)

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Pasco Farmer’s Market is one of the largest, outdoor, community farmers'
markets in Washington state, selling a huge variety of locally-grown fruits,
vegetables, and other products.  It is one of the longest-running farmers markets
in the state, and has been in operation for over 30 years.

It is the only open-air farmers market in our community with two covered pavillions,
providing shade on sunny days, or cover on rainy days for our shoppers and
vendors.  You will be delighted by the variety of products available!  We proudly
offer fresh, local fruits, berries, and vegetables in season and organic produce. 
You can also find locally-raised beef and pork, eggs, poultry, local honey, coffee,
baked goods (breads, cookies, cinnamon rolls), gourmet cheese, fresh-fruit
beverages, kettle corn, hand-crafted jewelry and other goods from local artisans,
and so much more!  Also: The donut machine is back!  Hot, freshly-made donuts
-- made right before your eyes and they smell and taste so delicious.

Browse through "The Market" page, "Products in Season" for more details
