Beaverton,OR Farmers Market


I often go to the Beaverton Farmers Market because they are open a couple times a week and its always fun because you bump into your neighbors, friends, and even your favorite cashier. It is held outside in the adjacent parking lots to our library. There is always live music, food, and the signature kettlecorn aroma. The kettlecorn booth always seem to attract the most people not only because their popcorn is amazing (I'm biased) but because its almost a live performance. The stirrer with a gigantic wooden spoon rapidly stirrs a huge vat of popcorn, creating popcorn air show. The smell, the taste, the sight is really something I look forward to when I go. As fun as it is, parking is an honest pain. Customers often circumvent this by parking in the strictly for library patrons library parking lot (oops). Many people are forced to park a long ways from their car, but they know that its worth it which is why many people opt to walk there instead. Next to the market is an expansive grass area, swing set, picnic tables, and a ground fountain that on hot days is only expected to be packed with children.
