Building a Thriving Community

The Stevenson Farmers’ Market is a seasonal market focusing on supplying regionally-grown produce and farm products sold by the farmer. Farmers’ markets provide a unique opportunity for the consumer to meet the grower who raised the food they eat. Locally grown food is a sustainable approach to agriculture that uses fewer resources to bring the highest quality, freshest food to your table, and provides food security for the community.

 If 20% of the fruit, vegetables and meat consumed in the gorge were purchased directly from a local farmer 9.6 Million Dollars would stay in the local economy. For every $100 spent at a farmers market $62 stays in the local economy and $99 stays in the state. Farmers get 72% more money when you buy direct. 3 companies own 50% of the world’s seeds while only 4 retailers sell 50% of the nations groceries and 4 companies process 80% of the meat consumed in the nation. This means 98% of the food consumed in the Columbia Gorge is shipped in from other areas. The average vegetable travels more than 7 days and 1500 miles to sit on a shelf in the grocery store. Eating local requires almost no packaging and tastes more vibrant.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide healthy, fresh foods and farm products to Skamania County and to our visitors.

In the past two years The Stevenson Farmers’ Market provided Children with $1355 of free veggies with our Power of Produce program (POP) where children get a $2 token to spend on vegetables each visit and participate in Veggie related activities.

Our market also gave $563 in additional food to community members Doubling the spending power of both WIC and Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) vouchers. In the past 4 years $3,400 of free food has been given to community members made possible by Sponsorships and Donations.

Farmers markets are good for communities. They bring people together and increase the social health and wealth of communities. Studies show that farmers’ markets improve customers’ sense of belonging and attachment to the neighborhood, and increase sales in surrounding businesses. Not to mention the healthy, tasty food that customers buy each week at the market. 

See You at the Market!

“The products are great and reasonable. The vendors are friendly and generous. And the organizers do a fantastic job being accommodating and helpful to everyone. They even hand out tokens that folks can use to buy produce. Come to Stevenson Farmer’s Market. You’ll be glad you did. Oh, and while you’re there visit my booth Heaven Scent Organics by Maxie.”
