The long days and reappearance of the sunshine let us know it’s summertime in the Gorge! That means it's time for the Gorge Grown Farmers' Market!
Come on out to get fresh fruits, veggies, and more at the Gorge Grown Farmers’ Market every Thursday from 4-7 PM at Hood River Middle School on 13th and May Street in Hood River. Hot tamales, grilled burgers and fresh spring rolls are perfect for an evening family picnic with friends. Fresh pies, amazing tarts, granola, breads, cut flowers, cheeses and so much more can be found, in addition to the best and freshest produce anywhere!
The Gorge Grown Farmers’ Market is accepting SNAP Food Stamp cards again as well as Debit cards. While funds last, food stamp shoppers can get $5 free to spend with their first $5 in purchases. Visit the info booth any week for more information.
Be sure to tell your friends that we have picnic blankets waiting for everyone to come have a relaxing dinner on while listening to some great live music.
