Pendleton Farmers Market
The Pendleton Farmers Market is an essential community event that takes place in Pendleton, Oregon, from May through mid-October each year. It serves as an open-air market where local vendors offer a variety of affordable, fresh-picked, and hand-produced goods. By encouraging vendors from the surrounding bio-region, or "foodshed," which includes the Blue Mountains and Columbia Plateau, the market fosters local agriculture and sustainability. The market opens every Friday at 4 p. m.
and runs until dusk, usually closing between 7 and 7:30 p. m. However, there is no market scheduled during the week of the Pendleton Round-Up, a major local event that attracts many visitors. Located on the 300 block of South Main Street, the market is a convenient gathering place for residents and tourists alike. This vibrant market not only provides fresh produce and goods but also strengthens community ties and supports local economies.
Visitors can expect a lively atmosphere filled with local produce, crafts, and a sense of community spirit.
