The return of the Tuesday night Capitol Hill Farmers Market this summer will be especially sweet for neighborhood food and drink workers:
To celebrate the seasonal opening of our Tuesday market in Capitol Hill, we will be offering Farm Bucks for local food workers. If you work as a barista, cook, or wait staff, stop on by the manager’s tent for $4 in NFM currency to spend at the markets! You can take advantage of this promotion every first Tuesday of the month through September.
Tuesday night, June 3rd marks the start of the weeknight season for the market joining the year-round Sunday markets.
The Neighborhood Farmers Market Alliance launched the Tuesday night Capitol Hill expansion in 2023 and takes a slightly different approach to the market with a larger emphasis on serving as a one-stop shop for quick and easy weeknight meals.
The Tuesday markets run from 3 to 7 PM and fill the same area of the AIDS Memorial Pathway Plaza above Capitol Hill Station as well as the adjacent E Barbara Bailey Way festival street.
The market, meanwhile, will continue its year-round weekend schedule on Capitol Hill on Sundays from 11 AM to 3 PM. CHS reported here on the spring 2021 debut of the market in its new home in the Capitol Hill Station plaza and on the city’s converted “festival street” that runs through. During development planning for the state, community priorities envisioned a daily market in the space. For now, the neighborhood enjoys the summer schedule of two market days a week.
In addition to celebrating food workers this year, the market is handing out “Eat the Rainbow Challenge” cards and 2025 Market Bingo cards you can fill for fun and prizes.
The Capitol Hill Farmers Market Tuesday night markets run through September 30th. Learn more at seattlefarmersmarkets.org/chfm.
