Shoreline Farmers Market
Greetings Broadview Community Council and Residents!
As you may or may not have heard, there is a new Farmers Market coming to the N Seattle, Shoreline area this summer.
The Shoreline Farmers Market will be opening June 16th of this year.
This Farmers Market will benefit residents of North Seattle and particularly, the Broadview neighborhood.
I grew up in Broadview and my parents any many friends still live there. This said, I am extremely excited to be able to offer the community another option for high quality, locally grown and produced food! Integrating the North Seattle and Shoreline communities is another benefit of this weekly event as well as the promotion of healthy, active, sustainable lifestyles.
The market will be held seasonally on Saturdays. The location is officially under review by the City of Shoreline, but will be situated within the Park at Town Center area in Shoreline. All proposed locations are right on the Interurban Trail which runs through Broadview into Seattle.
Currently Farmers Markets in the Area are (distances based on a central point @ 3rd/125th):
Lake City Farmers Market, Thursdays (3.3 miles) Phinney Farmers Market, Fridays (3.5 miles) Ballard Farmers Market, Sundays, Year Round (4.5 miles) Edmonds Farmers Market, Saturdays (8.0 miles)
The Shoreline Farmers Market will be 3.1 miles from the same point in Broadview. It is easily accessible by bike on the Interurban Trail (18min), by bus (358), and by car (8 min, plenty of parking at all three proposed locations). Broadview residents will have another great community asset with the establishment of the Shoreline Farmers Market. We would now just like to *inform them* and this is a great place to start!
Please contact me directly with any questions, comments, concerns.
Also please forward this email along as you see fit!
Thank you so much for your time and I hope to hear from you soon!
