The Enumclaw Plateau Farmers Market is just about ready to start its eighth season.

The annual market expects to practically fill First Street between Griffin and Washington Avenue with local farm stands, treat vendors, artists and crafters, and more on June 4, from 3 to 7 p.m., and every Thursday after until Sept. 24.

Local producers include 13 Hens Farms (duck eggs, vegetables), Beauvine Natural (various beef cuts), Fantello Farmstead (cheese and dairy), Enumclaw Farm (bread, vegetables), Locust Hill Farm (early-season vegetables, late-season wool products), Secret Valley Produce (pickled veggies, eggs, honey), the ever-popular Hayton Farms Berries, and many more.

Other food vendors attending will be Batch 3 Ice Cream, Emperfect Bakery, Brannen’s Bakery, and Wispy Whisk Bakery, Contrivance Wine & Mead, Jotunheim Meadery, Wolfskin Cider, and Stina’s Cellars, Larsson’s Delectable Delights and Lydia’s Cakes & Confections.

Numerous artisans will dot the street, from Esa’s Dirty Plant Mix, Bangles by Grace, Sunday Junkin, Dan DeVries Photography and Darren Chromey Photography, and Sheridan Flats.

These are only partial lists, and for a full list, more information on each vendor, when they will appear at the market, and where they will be set up at the market can be found online at enumclawplateaufarmersmarket.org/vendors.

A RECORD-SETTING YEAR

Last year was the market’s most successful year yet, again breaking records in total income and customers.

Gross sales last year totaled more than $375,000 — a $145,000 increase over 2025.

This includes a total of nearly $261,000 of gross sales for farmers and food processors, and another $115,000 for prepared foods and artisans and crafters.

The market also recorded more than 20,500 customers over 17 weeks, a nearly 600-customer increase over the previous year.

POP CLUB AND OTHER PROGRAMS

The farmer’s market Power of Produce program for kids and seniors returns this year.

Children who are enrolled in the program can receive free tokens weekly to be spent on fresh food at participating stalls.

Started in 2023, the PoP Club has become increasingly popular, with nearly 2,500 total check-ins last year (an average of 153 a week).

Seniors who are a part of the program, which requires being at least 60 years old and have an income below 185% of the federal poverty level ($29,500 for single adults, or $40,000 for a household of two) can receive limited funds for food purchases.

People enrolled in SNAP can also receive up to $25 a day in “Market Money” and another $25 SNAP Market Match; Enumclaw-specific residents can also apply for an additional $25.
