University District Farmers Market

About Us

Every Saturday, year-round, 9am to 2pm, rain or shine! Recognized as one of the best farmers markets in the U.S., the University District Farmers Market is Seattle’s largest food-only market and has been operating since 1993. Every Saturday morning, the street area between 50th and 52nd on “The Ave” (University Way) is closed to traffic, and up to 80 farmers and food vendors sell during peak season.

The Neighborhood Farmers Market's mission is to support Washington State farmers and food artisans, and to increase local food access in Seattle neighborhoods. Our seven Seattle farmers markets are producer-only (no brokers or re-sellers), and feature food and agricultural products: seasonal fruits and vegetables, dairy, poultry, meats, seafood, ciders, wines, cut flowers, as well as preserved/processed and prepared foods. For full information about each of our markets, please visit our website, and subscribe to our weekly “Ripe and Ready” newsletter! You can also find info on how to buy gift certificates and how to donate to support our work, on our website seattlefarmersmarkets.org. We are a local, community-based 501c3 charitable organization registered with the Secretary of State.
