Portland Farmers Market is a collection of six vibrant farmers’ markets held in unique urban locations throughout the Portland metro area. While each location has its own personality, all six markets provide a direct connection to the agricultural abundance of our region and serve as gathering places in which to grow, nourish and inspire community.
My favorite is the PSU market, it is the biggest I have been to. It has everything from specialty cheese, fresh fruits and vegetable’s, all kinds of meats, eggs, yummy food and much much more.
