Shoreline, WALocal News

As the Shoreline Farmers Market prepares for its new season, excitement is palpable in the community, with returning vendors and new participants ready to engage local shoppers. The market is actively seeking volunteers who want to contribute to their community, providing valuable experience for students and job seekers alike. Last season, the market enjoyed high levels of community support, which translated into significant contributions to the local economy and employment opportunities. A highlight of last year’s market was the impressive donation of over a ton of fresh fruits and vegetables to local food banks, reinforcing the market's role in addressing food insecurity. The initiative not only enhances the local economy but also promotes a sense of togetherness and support among residents.

With the market scheduled to operate every Saturday during the summer at City Hall, families can look forward to a vibrant gathering space. The commitment of vendors and community members alike plays a crucial role in the market's success and sustainability. The anticipation for the upcoming season reflects a strong community spirit and dedication to supporting local businesses and charitable efforts.
