All 3 outdoor markets are DOWNTOWN !
In 2007 we moved the Albany Farmers' Market to the City Hall parking lot at 4th and Ellsworth, plus the adjacent block of 4th Ave. Beautiful heritage trees east of the courthouse frame the site, which is highly visible from Ellsworth.
The Wednesday market in 2009 moved to the south end of downtown, in the parking lot just north of the skateboard park, at 2nd and B.
Oregon Trail, debit, and better WIC
Did you know you can use your Oregon Trail and debit cards at all three outdoor market sites? Go to the market booth and change some plastic into wooden tokens. It's fun and easy. The debit tokens also make great gifts or incentives!
In 2010 Oregon farmers' markets will also accept the new enhanced WIC fruit and vegetable benefits. Farmers will begin training and signing up this spring.
Tips regarding animals
Last year the Oregon Department of Agriculture instructed farmers' markets to restrict animals other than service animals to the main aisles of the market.
Here are some tips that will make everyone's market experience better:
Bring an additional human, if at all possible, to hold the leash while you enter stalls to shop. Not all vendors have their cash box up front.
Always keep leashes short enough to minimize trip hazards and prevent unwanted interactions with other dogs and people. Six feet is the maximum length, and no, voice control does not comply with city ordinances.
Just in case ... Add an extra bag to the produce bags you bring so you can make a quick recovery.
There's a new dog park next to the Wednesday farmers' market site.
