TOMORROW: Final parking-lot West Seattle Farmers’ Market; one week later, on June 14th, it’s out into the street!

After 16 years, tomorrow (Sunday, June 7th) is the last West Seattle Farmers’ Market (WSB sponsor) in the 44th/Alaska parking lot. Starting one week later, on June 14th – as first announced three months ago – you’ll shop the WSFM out in the street, like many other neighborhood farmers’ markets. Starting on that date, the market’s new home will be on California SW between Alaska and Oregon, which will be closed to vehicles 7 am-4 pm on Sundays as a result. This means more vendors, more local nonprofits, more room to roam as you shop and enjoy The Junction on a Sunday, and if you’re wondering about parking, the market move opens up 45 spaces in the 44th/Alaska lot. If you have questions – stop by the market-management booth on the north side of the market lot 10 am-2 pm tomorrow. (P.S. Here’s some of what will be happening on the first day in the street.)

    Love the Sunday market but happy to see it move a little farther from the house. My driveway seems to be a favorite parking place for market shoppers. Taking a hint from others on the blog, I consulted the city website and marked the edges of the driveway this morning with “traffic yellow” paint. I thought I was getting the jump on the weekday commuters who will be dropping anchor in the driveway for whole the day tomorrow and the for rest of the week. GUESSED IT! Before the paint was dry, a presumed market customer was parked across the driveway again. WHY NEIGHBORS GET TESTY! Thanks again, Seattle Police officer. Wish you weren’t needed for something so avoidable.

Sorry, comment time is over.
