The Bellevue Farmers Market Guide.
Every Thursday from late May through early October, the lot at Bellevue Presbyterian fills with just-picked produce, Washington-raised meats and seafood, fresh flowers, and artisan goods — everything grown or made locally. Your guide to the 2026 season: dates, hours, parking, payments, and what to buy.
Founded in 2004, the Bellevue Farmers Market has spent more than two decades doing one thing well: connecting the Eastside’s urban core to the small family farms around it. Every vendor sells what they grow, raise, or make — no resellers — so the stalls shift with the Pacific Northwest seasons, from spring greens to summer stone fruit to fall squash. Set just north of downtown at Bellevue Presbyterian Church, it pairs a true neighborhood market with the walkability of the city core, live music and family activities included.
The 2026 season — the market’s 23rd — runs Thursdays from May 21 through October 1, with something new this year: Saturday markets, starting with a downtown pilot on August 8 (10 a.m.–3 p.m.), an October date to be announced, and a pre-Thanksgiving market on Saturday, November 21. We update this page as the schedule evolves.
What You’ll Find
Every vendor grows, raises, or makes what they sell — the lineup moves with the seasons.
Seasonal Produce
Berries, stone fruit, leafy greens, tomatoes, corn, squash, and whatever the week’s harvest brings — the reason to come back every Thursday.
Meat & Seafood
Sustainably raised Washington meats and fresh local seafood, sold by the people who raised and caught them.
Fresh Flowers
Seasonal bouquets and bunches from local growers — the classic market exit purchase.
Artisan Foods
Cheeses, honey, jams, baked goods, and pantry staples from regional producers.
Ready-to-Eat
Prepared dishes and treats to enjoy on-site while the live music plays — the market doubles as a Thursday dinner plan.
Handmade Goods
Crafts and gifts from regional makers, alongside family activities and a relaxed community vibe.
