“Veterans of previous seasons are beginning to refine their maker goods, eye their gardening implements, dog-ear their seed catalogues, and scribble out grandiose plans for their market galleries and spring gardens. They know the rewarding hard work of the summer market season never really ends. It continues through the winter and into the spring. Market vendors live for this opportunity; we would have it no other way. If this sparks your imagination, you may be one of us.Cope's Park will again host our relentless efforts to bring to the community fresh vegetables, wildly imaginative arts and crafts and the best of maker goods. Our market manager will effortlessly guide us through what we fully expect will be another successful year.
You will find that our Market family is full of welcome and fun to work with. Market day is one of those exquisite times in the life of a community when folks come together to celebrate their good fortune, hard work and abundance with good cheer.
There really is no better place to be on summer Saturdays. Come join us.”

This is the application process for kid vendors only. Adult vendors please apply using the Clatskanie Farmers Market Application.
In 2025, we're excited to host a special Kids Market on June 21st, from 10am to 2pm, as part of our regular Clatskanie Farmers Market. It will be a day of fun, creativity, and learning, with both the Kids Market and our regular vendors all participating, creating a vibrant and bustling atmosphere for the entire community.
Our Kids Market gives kids a unique opportunity: to run their own small business! It's a chance for them to invest in an idea, get creative, and see the fruits of their labor when others purchase their handmade crafts and creations. We keep parent/guardian involvement minimal, empowering the kids to take the reins and experience the thrill of entrepreneurship firsthand.
Vending Fee is $5 per "Kid Business"
Application due June 1st

Testimonial:
"The Clatskanie Farmer Collective organization, which includes the Clatskanie Food Hub and the Clatskanie Farmers Market, offers many opportunities for us to market and distribute our farm goods to our local community. Both venues allow us to engage directly with our community either through in person interactions at the market or by providing fresh nutrient dense locally grown produce at a central location four days a week. The organization is passionate and well managed; with a focus on building and sustaining an eco-friendly food system. They have created a fun and inviting space for local produce and goods to be accessible to our community members. As a producer, we particularly admire their ability to be inclusive, rather than competitive, when providing an avenue for local farms and producers to connect with customers. We look forward to continuing to grow our farm business through involvement in the Clatskanie Farmers Market as well as the Food Hub."
