Ellensburg Farmer's Market
- It is essential that the Ellensburg Farmers Market is able to supply the residents of Kittitas County with food, and it is important that the market connects farmers and shoppers. While our market has often been a social space, it is important not to confuse this as the primary purpose this year. Our commitment to a farm and food-only market that support Washington’s small family farms, ensuring food access for all, and nurturing a connection between producers and consumers is our ultimate goal. Our basic needs, including those for health, food, drink, and agriculture, have not changed during this crisis. We believe that an open-air market, with transparent and short supply chains, can be the safest and best way to obtain food during this crisis. To ensure the safety of our market vendors and the public at large, some modifications of the market will be taking place.
