Earlier this month, the Port Orchard Farmers Market announced the launch of a new Wednesday market to increase community access to fresh and local food in South Kitsap County.
The midweek market will officially kick off on July 1 and will run through Sept. 30 from 3-7 p.m. at the South Kitsap Helpline parking lot.
“The Wednesday market is an exciting opportunity to meet people where they are and expand access to the fresh, local food you can find at the farmers market,” Kelly Nelson, the Wednesday market manager, said in a press release. “Partnering with South Kitsap Helpline for our Wednesday Market location allows us to align our missions in a meaningful way and better serve our community.”
At the market, visitors can look forward to a variety of goods from local farmers and artisans in addition to prepared food vendors and live performances through the market’s Music at the Market program.
The new market will be commemorated by an Opening Day ribbon-cutting ceremony, in partnership with the South Kitsap Chamber of Commerce, at 2:50 p.m. on July 1.
