If it proves to be a success, the project could be expanded next year to more of the nearly three dozen farmers markets across King County and around the state.
The project is an effort between the King County Agriculture Program, Public Health - Seattle & King County, Friends of Third Place Commons, Neighborhood Farmers Market Alliance, which operates the Columbia City Farmers Market, and a private donor.
The Columbia City Farmers Market is open each Wednesday from 3-7 p.m. through Oct. 22 at 4801 Rainier Ave. S. at South Edmunds Street. It is served by Metro bus routes 7, 9, 39, and 42 from downtown and by route 48 from the University District.
Information about other farmers markets in King County is available at www.pugetsoundfresh.org.[[In-content Ad]]
