Sequim Open Aire Market

Saturdays 9 a.m.-3 p.m. on Cedar Street between Sequim and Second avenues

Wednesdays 2-6 p.m. corner of Sequim Avenue `and Washington Street

The farms keep coming! Get ready to sink your teeth into some exceptional apples as Dungeness Orchards starts coming this week with an abundance of tree fruits grown here in Sequim. Johnston Farms also will be debuting their high- quality organically grown produce at the Sequim market this week. We are fortunate to have the rich soil and hard-working farmers to bring us such nourishment each week.

Other news from the market is that we will be hosting a special street fair on Oct. 23. This will be our last "official" market day on Cedar Street. That Saturday we will celebrate "Christmas in October."

You may remember this was done years past, and our vendors have decided that they want to bring it back. There will be a special raffle and lots of decor to inspire you to think local when it comes to the holidays. Each gift purchased at the Open Aire Market is a unique, one-of-a-kind gift that can be found only in Sequim. As you know, each vendor, crafter or artist is juried in making our market highly respectable with its quality crafts and art. Plan to do some of your holiday shopping at the market on Oct. 23.

The music this week is Sara Shea singing sweet jazz standards and more.

The Suzanne Arnold Community Booths will be hosted by the VFW, Project Healing Waters, the Grand Olympics Chorus of Sweet Adelines International and CASA.
