"Proudly the only independent farmers market in the city, the Queen Anne market was started by a group of local citizens who decided that it was truly what the neighborhood needed. That grassroots feeling still pervades, with neighborhood chefs doing cooking demos, lots of unique vendors who haven’t made it into the larger markets (artisanal chocolate milk from Bellflower, for example), and a big prepared foods area where neighbors gather for their Thursday evening meal around the long family-style table." - Vox Creative
