Hi, I am with a group of non-profit volunteer local motorcycle clubs that are commited to a Youth safety evalution program. I am currently looking at the overflow parking area by the farmers market to conduct these riding evalutions to meet new 2012 law for kids 7 to 15 to ride on public lands. Approx. 10 to 30 kids, 9am-noon, 7 times a year. Would love to have the public aware of such programs.
Hi Ryan, can you call me please…would love to talk to you about anything to do with kids and safety.
Thanks…503 734-0192. Cheers, Jackie, manager OCFM.

None of these dates are Saturdays, what are the real dates of the winter market?
Hi Sharon…where are you seeing these dates? On the “Times and Dates for the 2012 markets” Page we have the correct dates…can you let me know and I’ll change them. Thanks!
Good morning.
I’m wondering if you are planning on having a Green/Sustainable Day in June like you did last year. If so can you tell me what day. I would love to be a vendor.
Thanks.

Why does this market close so early? We would go every Saturday but our other commitments don’t allow us to be there before 2:00… It just seems odd to close down in the middle of the day…
Hi Stacy, the farmers often harvest the crops early Saturday morning or Friday evening to get them to market fresh for the shoppers. They are up early, usually about 5am , packing the trucks up to get to Market. Volunteers and Market staff are on site from 7am onwards too. The produce then stays fresh in the cool of the morning, by noon it’s heating up and you’ll find at 1pm or 2pm the produce is looking a little sad on the farmers tables with the heat.Customers also like shopping in the relative cool of the morning hours. Most, if not all farmers market close between 1pm and 2pm for those reasons. However we do have a smaller Wednesday Market, the farmers pick in the morning and bring produce in the afternoon, not as much, and greens really don’t hold up that well , but you’ll find us hugging the shade on 8th St at Main, Oregon City, 3-7pm. Come and find us downtown soon! Cheers!
