BIG CHANGE AT FARMERS’ MARKET TOMORROW: Sunday will bring the fifth West Seattle Farmers’ Market since the coronavirus-crisis closure ended. And market managers say there’ll be a big change:

The market layout will look like a version of its former self with vendors in the middle of the street this week.

Otherwise, other modifications remain in place, including the one entrance at California/Alaska, with the line stretching east along Alaska. And don’t forget your face covering! Here’s the vendor list for this week.

GROCERY-SHOPPING UPDATES: As usual, the commenters have updates to share following our weekly grocery-shopping notes.

LIFE GOES ON: Donna B. sent this photo of a waterfront wedding on Alki last night:

Congratulations!
