What a nice market with fresh produce offerings, local artist pieces and food stalls. A great local event that is welcoming to visitors. A fun place to have a picnic or listen to music.

Locally grown food from Orcas Island farms. A vendor spinning wool from her farm's sheep. The historical museum is fantastic, opens at 11am. Live folk music. Family-friendly affair!

It's very small, a cute to shop. It's nice that it has a play area for children.

After a couple of wintertime visits to Orcas, I was really looking forward to a summer trip. That excitement was enhanced, even more than I would confess, by the prospects of seeing what the farmers market looks like here. Orcas has a long and rich agricultural history and I've seen plenty of farms and roadside farm stands that stood vacant in Decemeber. I was stoked for summer.Cue COVID....Well, I'm happy to report that the market was still happening. I'm glad they didn't throw in the towel on it, though from what I'm told it was vastly different this year. Oh, you can imagine that in previous years there wasn't a mandatory handwashing station at the entrance. And I imagine there weren't dots on the ground to indicate where you should wait in order to approach each booth one party at a time. But more importantly, I'm told that the market, even though it's small and mighty in its biggest years, was only very teeny this year. There were probably 7-8 booths there, and that made for a quick visit. Still, we bought some flowers at one booth, and a bar of locally made soap at another, so we did our best to support the vendors who are making an effort despite the restrictions.I have nothing but love for a farmers market, and nothing but admiration for the participants. Though we were only here for a little bit, I'm glad we made it.

So many different vendors and options! All local food and art. The people are so nice and everything is high quality. Get some fresh oysters to munch on as you wander around and you won't be disappointed.
