Eat Local. Eat Fresh. Forest Grove Farmers Market
The Forest Grove Farmers Market operates between mid-May and mid-October and is located on Main Street in the heart of downtown Forest Grove. The Market has grown significantly since opening in 2005 and now boasts between 1,800-2,500 visitors each Wednesday!
The Forest Grove Farmers Market is managed by Adelante Mujeres. The Farmers Market promotes a family-focused environment with a Latino flair. Consequently, it attracts individuals from all age groups, and with diverse backgrounds and experiences. Additionally, the Market is a small-business incubator for Adelante Mujeres sustainable farming program, and career and economic development program.

The 2010 Match Program reaches goal of $2,000!
Thanks to generous donations from Forest Grove community members, the Forest Grove Farmers Market will again be able to provide $5 in matching funds for purches made with the Oregon Trail (food stamps) card at the Market. This helps increase access to fresh, healthy fruits and vegetables and helps our economy by investing more dollars locally. In May, the community donated over $700 to support healthy eating. In June, Aramark at Pacific University, donated $1,500 to the Match Program, helping us reach our goal!
