Rocky Butte Farmers Market
(RBFM), an iconic urban neigh-
borhood market featuring afford-
able locally grown foods and ar-
tisan products, as well as weekly
children's activities, live entertain-
ment, and a dog-friendly, energet-
ic block party vibe is back!
RBFM will run from 9 am to 1
pm every Saturday until Septem-
ber 30. The market is located in
the spacious parking lot of Manna-
house Church, 9200 NE Fremont
Street. Trimet Bus #24 at NE Fre-
mont & 88th heading downtown
or NE Fremont & 89th heading to-
ward Gateway, is the closest pub-
lic transportation option. Market
organizers are thrilled to announce
new and returning vendors this
season, offering everything from
local produce, meat & fish to pot-
tery and handcrafted goods.
“We pride ourselves on offer-
ing a space for community build-
ing and growing connections,
in addition to supporting local
farmers and talented makers,”
said Benjamin Cutler, co-found-
er and board President. “Rocky
Butte Farmers Market is much
more than a place of commerce.
Come meet your neighbors,
make new friends, interact with
vendors and entertainers, and
join us in further strengthening
what we already love about our
unique neighborhoods.”
Well-behaved dogs are allowed
in all areas of the market, which
offers fresh water and treats at the
info booth for pups. Fun and edu-
cational children’s programming
is offered weekly and is suitable
for all ages. Market-goers ages
3-13 who stop by the Kids Patch
each get a FREE $5 token to
spend during their visit! Rocky
Butte Farmers Market proudly
accepts Supplemental Nutritional
Assistance Program (SNAP) and
offers Double Up Food Bucks
through a partnership with the
Farmers Market Fund.
