Autumn Farmers Market – Hollywood Farmers Market, at NE Hancock between 44th & 45th, a block South of SE Sandy in the Hollywood neighborhood. Still running on on Saturdays, 9 AM – 1 PM
Then off to the Portland Farmers Market at PSU, at the South Park Blocks between SW Hall & SW Montgomery, running 8:30 AM. – 2 PM until it switches to 9 AM in November. Look at those giant cabbages!
I’ve been particularly smitten with the Portland Farmers Market at PSU because for the past/next few weeks, Westwind Gardens from Forest Grove have been roasting peppers right there at the market, and the aroma is incredible. You can buy the roasted peppers in various heat levels in all the varieties you know and maybe want to be introduced to, still warm in the ziploc bags, which I take home and just plop right on plain rice and enjoy! They have a wonderful variety of peppers as well!
Come visit the autumn Farmers Markets of Portland during this wonderful time of year where there is still sunshine and you can layer up in comfy sweaters and scarves, before winter comes and the markets start to take a break!
Have you ever smelled freshly roasted chili peppers, what do you think of it?
Pech, these photos are gorgeous! Love the gif of the peppers, too. Whole Foods was roasting hatch chili peppers when they were in season and they smelled so good… I imagine the red, orange, and yellow peppers roasting smelled divine!
Beautiful post, Pech! I visited the Hollywood Farmers Market for the first time a few weeks ago, and I think it is one of the best in town. Beautiful produce, and such a great selection. We are so lucky to live in a town with so many local farm-to-table opportunities.
I find myself still visiting but just a smidge less impressed by other farmers markets ofyen often thanks to all that Portland offers
