Beginning Thursday, May 14th, through October 15th, the Bellevue Farmers Market will be open from 3-7pm at their new more accessible location – at the old Safeway parking lot in Downtown Bellevue.
In addition to Thursdays, the Market will now be open on Saturdays from June 6th through November 21st, 9am – 2pm.
Parking will be available for free in the Bellevue Square parking lot.
Bellevue Farmers Market is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting the local rural economy, and supports small family farms by providing a place to sell the farm-fresh produce directly to consumers.
Good to see the place going to some use at least, although I have to imagine this is going to be a temporary location. Exactly how temporary it is remains to be seen.
It will most likely be there for another couple of years. I can’t imagine Freeman starting construction on the site any time soon.
I love this new location for the market. I will be there often.
I’d like to see this be open during lunch hours on a weekday. I think people would enjoy taking a break, and pick up fresh food!
Also, likely it won’t be possible in the future to have the Bellevue Farmers market in the parking lot of the old Safeway, but it’d be neat to see it possibly move to NE 6th St, which is in between the Bellevue Arts Museum and Lincoln Square/One Lincoln Tower.
Loved the new location… I also agree it should be open during lunch hours, maybe combine it with a live band? Is it too much to ask for??? Would be a great pic tough…
