About NorthWest Crossing Saturday
Farmers Market

WELCOME!

The NorthWest Crossing Saturday Farmers Market is more than simply a venue for Bendites to find fresh, organic, sustainably grown produce; it is a weekly gathering filled with music, food, arts & crafts. It is now the most attended farmers market in Central Oregon with a weekly average attendance spanning from 500 - 3,000 people. It has been a wonderful place for families of all shapes and sizes to spend time meeting their local farmers and artisans, and to learn more about sustainable gardening and living as well. We are so thankful that you will be contributing to our growing community this year!

Our market is a community of strong, dedicated farms and businesses that appear to be growing and expanding along with the market each season.  We value vendors who will be a consistent presence at the farmers market and we work hard to balance competition with demand to ensure weekly success for all. We are committed to providing Oregon farms, and relevant small businesses, the opportunity to bring their harvest to Central Oregon, while complementing this with a market program around food, music and the arts to create a sense of place where people want to spend the morning and afternoon.  We believe that a Saturday market experience should be a celebration of growth, health, life, creativity and community in addition to picking up groceries.

The NorthWest Crossing Saturday Farmers Market plays a central role in educating and providing an opportunity for residents and visitors to support the local economy, while fostering an economically, ecologically and socially sustainable community.

Year after year, we come together to create a world-class farmers market that contributes to the success of local food growers and producers, and create a vibrant weekly community gathering.

If you have registered under the Full Season or Half Season payment plan, you are expected to participate in the market for the dates you commit to. There are no refunds for any reason. The success of our market depends solely on the market vendors providing consistency with their availability and product each week.

Drop in invoices will be sent out on Tuesdays and payment must be made by 5pm on Thursday to be included on the Market Map and you will be expected to attend that market. If you are absent, your payment will not be refunded and you will be considered a No Show.

The first strike will incur a $50 fee that must be paid prior to attending the market again, and the second strike will expel you from the market.
