New market opens in Wilsonville

villeboisEvery year, about this time, Waterfront Park fills up with rides and vendors for Cinco de Mayo and the Rose Festival.  First Thursday Art Walks cram the Pearl District (in a good way).  And local farmers and artists break out their wares to be peddled at any number of Saturday Markets and Farmer’s Markets in the city (PSU, Beaverton, Burnside, Hillsboro, Vancouver . . . the list of locations goes on and on).

Everywhere, that is, except Wilsonville.  Our neighbor to the south have been san-street-fair for years.  But for the first time, neighbors will be able to pick up fresh cut flowers, unique snacks and superb produce in their backyard.  The Villebois housing development is launching a new Farmer’s Market this weekend . . . but with a twist.

In an effort to stick out and offer something new, Villebois is offering a SUNDAY market.  It’s mainly a community project but it’s open to all so if you are booked on Saturdays, feel free to hop on I-5 and stop by.  Details are here.
