Market Updates

This Saturday, we'll host the last Hollywood Farmers Market of 2014. What a fantastic, abundant, and delicious year we've had! Don't miss your final chance of the year to stock up on local fruits and veggies, meats, cheese, seafood, and more! If you're hoping to pick up a few last-minute holiday gifts at market, there are lots of options: from handmade candles to smoked fish to a beautiful bunch of kale (the perfect gift for that person who has everything!).

Dancing Light Ranch will be back this Saturday with delightful

lavender creations, and

Sage and Sea will return with their sipping vinegars, great as a festive holiday beverage.

Gales Meadow will also be returning to market, with heirloom garlic and farm-made hot sauce, a holiday treat everyone can enjoy. This Saturday also marks the final day of of the season for our longtime artisan vendors, La Fountain Herbal and Mixed Mediaz; stop by and wish them a happy winter!

For a limited time only! We have beautiful, stainless steel, leak-proof (we tested!) HFM mugs available for sale at the Info Booth. They're just $10! As an added bonus, they fit in the water bottle cage of your bike!

We're nearing the end of our Willamette Week Give!Guide campaign, and we want to invite you to donate to this awesome cause. The Hollywood Farmers Market is excited to be partnering with the Farmers Market Fund to work with many other local farmers markets to raise funds for SNAP matching programs. This Saturday, we will be offering a special incentive for everybody who donates to this campaign -they'll be entered in a drawing for a free HFM t-shirt, bag, or coffee mug! If you've already donated, just bring your receipt to the info booth to be entered in the drawing.

This Saturday is also the final weekend for the annual L'Arche tree sale, located in the Grocery Outlet's parking lot! Not only will these trees beautify the holiday season,

they support an important and meaningful cause. All proceeds go directly to L'Arche Portland,a non-profit that provides lifelong homes to people with developmental disabilities.

We will be open the 1st & 3rd Saturday of each month through March, from 9am - 1pm. Starting in April, we return to our weekly schedule, and the market will open at 8 am.

Thank you all for your support of the Hollywood Farmers Market and its vendors over the past twelve months! We hope that the market community brings as much joy to your lives as it does to ours!
