Unfortunately the Bremerton Community Farmers market will be closed this week, as we reevaluate the best way to move forward to serve the community.

From our board of directors regarding the cancellation:

On behalf of the board and myself, I would like to say thank you for all your messages of concern about tomorrow’s market closure. Because of the low turnouts several farmers have decided not to participate. Which leaves us in a position to regroup and decide what to do. We will update you, as soon as we have a plan, here and on our website. We thank you for your patience and support through this unprecedented time.
– Sheryl Usman
Board President
