Mission
To celebrate the bounty of Oregon and Washington agriculture through the operation of community-based farmers markets and other ventures that support small farmers and healthy urban neighborhoods.
Vision
We envision community-based, celebratory farmers markets that draw a diversity of people throughout the year to meet old friends, make new ones, and shop the bounty of Oregon and Washington agriculture. The market strives to be environmentally sustainable, socially responsible, and educational for all ages.

- Pride: We believe the presence of a vital, high quality farmers’ market enhances our neighborhood’s distinct character.
- Education: We believe in providing educational experiences related to healthy communities and sustainability.
- Civic Participation: We believe that informal social gatherings of neighbors in open public spaces encourages civic participation in our community.
