Eat Local. Eat Fresh. Forest Grove Farmers Market
The Forest Grove Farmers Market operates between mid-May and mid-October and is located in the heart of downtown Forest Grove, across from Pacific University. The Market has grown significantly since opening with over 1,000 visitors each Wednesday and it continues to grow.
The Forest Grove Farmers Market is managed by Adelante Mujeres, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization dedicated to the holistic education and empowerment of low-income Latina women and their families. The Farmers Market promotes a family-focused environment with a Latino flair. Consequently, it attracts individuals from all age groups, and with diverse backgrounds and experiences. Additionally, the Market is a small-business incubator for Adelante Mujeres sustainable farming program, and career and economic development program.
