In another sign that summer is finally right around the corner, the Renton Farmer’s Market returns next week.

The Piazza will come alive with farm fresh produce and flowers, as well as baked goods, seafood, meat, eggs, honey, dairy and more. With 60 vendors each week there is bound to be something for everyone.

Plus, the “Taste of Renton” will feature one local restaurant dishing up samples from 4:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. every Tuesday through September.

The ever-popular Kids’ Patch returns with fun projects for the little ones as does live entertainment and a Master Gardener, who will be on hand each week to answer your questions and help guide you through the growing season.

Mayor Denis Law will officially ring the bell at the Renton Farmers Market at 3 p.m. Tuesday to kick off this year’s market season in Renton.

“We are excited to be celebrating another great season of the downtown Farmers Market,” Law said in a press release. “We couldn’t support this successful program without the generosity of private contributors, volunteers and vendors who make the farmers market in Renton so spectacular.”

New Farmers Market coordinator, Carrie Olson, comes to the City of Renton from Enumclaw where she created the Enumclaw Chocolate Festival and assisted with the King County Fair.

“I have always loved visiting local farmers markets and I am excited to have the opportunity to work in Renton,” said Olson.

Free parking is available for two-hours in the City Center Garage. The Renton Farmers Market is sponsored by the City of Renton with help from volunteers at the Piazza Renton.
