The Phinney Farmers Market

The sun shined brightly as Rayne and Tippy welcomed this first day of fall and their first visit to the Phinney Farmers Market.
The Phinney Market located on 67th and Phinney and is open from 3-7pm June 3rd thru Oct 21st.

Seattle in its typically predictably unpredictable style of weather showed up in her best costume with all it's beauty for this Emerald Sideshow Adventure.

The Phinney market was lovely, basked in warm sun it offered an often peaceful silence broken only by laughter and the usual sounds of commerce.  And, like all of the markets we have visited we found gifts of the earth to tempt our pocket books until they found themselves bare.
Our first stop was the Alvarez Organic Farms Booth.


While Tippy thrives in the summer she spends most of the year looking forward to the FIFTH season....Chili Season!  The season which we have recently entered which enriches and excites our gustatory lives.

Green chilis
Goat chilis
Jalapenos
Habaneros
These are a few of our favorite things.

The Fremont Market!

Called again by the temptations, sounds and wares of the markets we found ourselves in the depths of Fremont answering the call. 

If you have not yet had the opportunity to visit the Fremont Market, the time is NOW!
This market runs year round but the summer and early fall offer the best opportunity to experience the HUGE variety of treasures assembled upon the tables of these lovely local vendors sans rain.


Unlike many of the markets and fairs in town this one in particular wet our pallets to the the point of drool.  We found our wet mouths salivating over the many found and vintage objects offered by the  vendors of The Fremont Market.

Rayne found a dream list item..... a cursive typewriter!!
The market offers not only vintage booths and the usual but also an entire underground garage filled with all and everything.  This market is about history, vintage and the dregs. 
If you are like us you will definitely find what you are looking for!

Have a happy hour at Nine Million In Unmarked Bills.
