Operating for its second year, Tacoma’s newest farmers market is set to open on Tuesday, June 2nd, in the heart of the city’s entertainment district—The 6th Avenue District.
Last year the market filled the streets from 6th Ave to 7th Ave, generating an enthusiasm and community spirit that was palpable, spilling over into neighborhood businesses. Reports from neighboring businesses showed a considerable jump in sales on market days. Local residents openly enjoyed the convenience of front door shopping and community gathering. Some fun first year statistics and facts for shoppers and potential partners:
- Served 40 vendors and 2000 customers daily
- Reported gross sales by vendors was over $150,000 for the 12 week season
- 75% of customers spent an average of $20 at the market
- Each dollar of sponsorship investment generates a multi-fold impact on local food producers which will only grow in future years ($0.68 /$1.00 stays here)
- 60% of Farm Bill subsidies go to 10% of the largest corporate farms, whereas your sponsorship dollars help sustain our small local farmers
- You can be proud to know that you are bringing fresher, healthier food to your community
- You are helping to reduce the world’s carbon footprint
- You are supporting educational events that help families relearn the ways of community living
We look forward to another successful season!! If you are a local performer, storyteller, chef, child activity leader, master gardener, etc...give us a call. We'd love to coordinate a way for your to share your volunteer talents with our wonderful community. Call Cayenne at 253-272-7077 for more information about the 6th Avenue Market.
