Yelm’s Farmer’s Market May 28 – October 8

The Yelm Farmers Market is Coming!

From the Yelm Food Coop/Yelm Farmer’s Market:
The Yelm Farmers Market is a reality! We will be opening on May 27th in conjunction with Memorial Day.

This is an exciting development in Yelm and we want to make it a roaring success.

This is what we want to do:

create a place for local farmers and artisans to build relationships with their community and open up new outlets for their products
provide a support for new small farmers to develop the skills of direct marketing to their customers
provide a place for the community to become directly involved in local food and the farmers who grow it
create an atmosphere that builds community spirit and excitement about seasonal and sustainable food practices
encourage an atmosphere of giving through donations of excess product to local charities
cultivate an atmosphere of learning to the public by providing customers with cooking demonstrations, how-to information on farming, and advice on storing fresh foods

If you want to be a part of this exciting new venture, check out our website at

We also need volunteers to help with stand set up, parking and lots more.
