Upcoming Events
Join us for an intimate benefit dinner for Neighborhood Farmers Markets, at Cafe Flora. In addition to enjoying a delicious meal, guests will learn more about our work in the community and be invited to make a donation to support our markets and programs.
Farmers markets are about more than food; they’re an essential way small farmers feed our community and make a life from working the land. Combined with NFM's commitment to ensuring access to fresh, healthy food for everyone in our community, our work provides farmers with a place to thrive.
The Evening Includes:
An insider look at the Neighborhood Farmers Markets' work in the community.
A three-course, seasonal, vegetarian dinner from Cafe Flora chefs and Washington farmers.
Exciting raffle opportunities including the best from local producers, restaurants, and businesses.
We're so grateful to Nat Stratton-Clarke and Cafe Flora for hosting the evening, and we're looking forward to seeing you there!
All proceeds from the evening will support the operation of the Neighborhood Farmers Markets' eight markets in seven locations throughout Seattle.
The Phinney Neighborhood Association, Halcyon Brewing, and the Neighborhood Farmers Markets are teaming up to bring you a spooktacular trivia night complete with costume contest, silly puns, and good food. Bring a team or join one when you get there. We’d love to have you. All proceeds from the night go to strengthening our markets and all the programming we provide for all our neighbors.
Help us build a better food system From the Ground Up!
