Market Updates

 
Join us this Saturday as we move back on Hancock Street between 44th & 45th Avenues! We will be
set up from 9am - soon gales meadow1pm, for the last month of our Winter Markets. 

This week, we are excited to bring back a few of your favorite regular season vendors and introduce you to a few new products we're excited to add to the 2012 season!  You can look forward to finding garden starts, winter greens, kale chips, freshly baked goodies, locally foraged foods, locally raised meats and more! 

Plus, we welcome back Dragonfly Forge, a portable knife sharpening business.  Have them freshen up all your kitchen knives while you shop!  With all the great produce popping up this spring, you'll want those knives in tip top shape. 

See you at the market! 

Get Your Questions Answered by Master Gardeners

The Oregon State University Master Gardeners are back at the market this month!
 
The Master Gardener Program is an OSU Extension Service
 program that educates Oregonians about the art and science of growing and caring for plants. This program also facilitates the training of a highly educated corp of volunteers. These volunteers extend sustainable gardening information to their communities through education and outreach programs. 
 
The master gardeners will be answering customer's gardening questions at their booth (located next to the information booth) throughout the market from 9am to 1pm. Stop by if you have a garden-related question!
 
Check out the Metro Master Gardener Program for more
 information or call the Multnomah Master Gardener hotline at (503) 445-4608, 10AM - 2PM, Weekdays.
 
Remember to pick up your garden starts this month from the expert growers at the Hollywood Farmers Market. Gales Meadow Farm and Sun Gold Farm will both have a wide variety of starts to choose from. 

Happy gardening!
