An exciting turn of events has transpired. Cully Farmer’s Market is joining forces with Thursday’s Old Salt Market to become one. The move takes the Cully Farmer’s Market into the heart of 42nd Avenue business district with a location just outside of Old Salt, Roses, and Rocket Pizza. The season will still be June through September but will change to Thursdays from 4 to 7 pm. This is meant to be a tri-neighborhood market, with collaboration of residents from Concordia, Cully, and Beaumont-Wilshire neighborhoods.
If you did not know already, Cully has a growing urban farm population. Cully Farmer’s Market is unique in that it will be hosting mostly neighborhood-grown produce. In addition to local farming, the market will promote neighborhood cottage industry. Neighbors who make or create products or services are encouraged to consider having a booth at the market (price = $25 per week). A community booth will continue to be open to residents of Wilshire-Beaumont, Concordia, and Cully. Additionally, we are introducing an entrepreneurial opportunity booth called Neighborhood Spotlight where residents can sign up to have an entire booth free of charge for one week. The idea is to keep local money in local neighborhoods and support neighbors as much as possible. Please notify Myo at cullyfarmersmarket@gmail.com if you would like to have a booth at the market. Look for our website—cullyfarmersmarket.com—and check out and “like” our Facebook page. More information will be available soon. We look forward to seeing you at the market!
