Farmers Market adds ‘acreage’

Published May 19, 2012 / by Steve Berentson

It’s not actually ‘acreage,’ but the Anacortes Farmers Market is celebrating expanded space this spring on the grounds of the one-time Northern Pacific Railroad Depot. Vendors range from organic farmers and fishermen to gardeners and woodcarvers. The market was the place to be Saturday in downtown Anacortes!





About Steve Berentson
A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
