Spring means the start of FARMER'S MARKET SEASON!

The days are longer, the dahlias are blooming and the weekends welcome local farmers, vendors, and artisans.

Each Farmer’s Market around the Kitsap Peninsula has its own notable flair, no two are alike. That’s why we’ve created this handy round-up so you can plan to experience them all!

Port orchard market

Saturday | 9-2p | April 13th - October

Downtown Waterfront Marina + Boardwalk

Meander past the quaint shops along Port Orchard’s downtown and you’ll find the oldest farmer’s market on the Kitsap Peninsula. This wonderful waterfront market meets just a few steps from the marina and foot ferry pier. Well known for an expansive variety of produce and homemade bread, pies, jams, hummus and many more mouthwatering treats. Let the kids burn off some energy at the large playground or cruise along the miles of walking path while noshing your market treats.

Poulsbo Market

Saturday | 10a-2p | March 30 - December

Gateway Fellowship Parking Lot

The Poulsbo market is known for great produce, meats, a tantalizing assortment of baked treats, a handful of food truck options, and its rockin’ live music! Make sure to say hello to the ladies from Oxalis Kitchen, their freshly baked goodies ensure you’ll be able to enjoy the market all week long!

Bainbridge island market

Saturday | 10-2p | April 6 - November

Town Square at City Hall

Hopping off the 30 minute ferry run from Seattle in downtown Bainbridge, the farmers market is a leisurely Saturday morning walk from the terminal. Rows of tents and food trucks await you, and fill Town Square with their freshly baked bread, coffee, preserves, honey, fresh oysters + seafood and so much more! You’ll need a basket to enjoy sampling your goodies on the ferry ride home.

KINGston public market

Sunday | 10-3pm | May 5 - Oct 27

Mike Wallace Park (next to ferry terminal)

The Kingston Public Market hosts a wide variety of vendors each week who grow produce, serve food, create art, handcraft gifts, and resell curated collections. Think of KPM as a weekly extension of Downtown Kingston's shops, filled with vibrant, colorful, and unique facets of our community.

Bremerton market

Thursday | 4-7p | May - September

Evergreen Rotary Park

Wide expanses of grass usually devoted to playing catch or tossing a frisbee morph into one of our largest farmer’s markets on the Kitsap Peninsula. A short 10 minute walk from Bremerton’s ferry terminals, the Bremerton Community’s Farmers Market paired with a gorgeous ferry ride - from Port Orchard or Seattle - makes for a great Thursday evening adventure. Just like their name suggests, this market is a true community affair with additional events like yoga at the market, local chef demonstrations, live music, and one of the coolest kids parks onsite - there is always something for the entire family!

Silverdale market

Tuesday | 10-2p | April 30 - September

Silverdale Antique Mall

In the heart of Silverdale, surrounded by retail space, this sweet little market is a lovely little oasis located in the Silverdale Antique Mall Parking lot. Grab lunch at one of the many walkable neighborhood restaurants near by and peruse through candles, garden starts, local honey, and more, all on your Tuesday lunch break!

Gig Harbor Market

Thursday | 1-7p | June - August

Skansie Brothers Park

Every Thursday afternoon the Gig Harbor farmer’s market snuggles right up to the water’s edge at Skansie Brothers Park. Peruse through tents heaping with olive oils, wines, spices, honey, lavender, and organic produce under the watchful eye of Mount Rainier. We always enjoy plant shopping at Wild Whimsy Plant Co’s plant shop on wheels, noshing on a delish Harbor Hot Dog or Caysal’s key lime pie on a stick!
