Thank you for your interest in becoming a vendor at Gorge Grown Farmers Markets. Gorge Grown manages three farmers markets in the Columbia River Gorge: Hood River Farmers Market, Mercado del Valle and White Salmon Farmers Market. Farmers markets are one of several tools we use to increase access to fresh, healthy and local food, and to increase local outlets for small farmers and producers.
Our markets are farmer and producer-centered markets, featuring products grown, raised or made by the vendor. Businesses who would like to be involved in the market but do not meet our producer or product guidelines may attend the market as business sponsors. Please contact us for sponsorship information.
