Music at the Market
It's a double feature with Music at the Market this week! Starting us off at 4pm is Clifford-O. Clifford has been playing music at farmers markets around King, Pierce and Kitsap counties for over 12 years. Music became his passion in high school. Influenced by blues, jazz, country and rock and roll, he plays a mix of popular covers and originals, instrumental and with vocals.
Following up at 5:30pm, we are fortunate to have one of the Tri-Cities Steel Band Association student groups, Bram Brata! Bram Brata is a non-profit high school aged performance Steel Drum band based out of Richland WA. They are comprised of youth from all over the Tri Cites area and promote family friendly world music through education and performance. They tour annually to different regions to perform as a group bonding experience and reached out to perform for us while they were in town. How cool!
Bring your picnic blankets or your chair and enjoy an evening of good weather and great music! A sincere thank you to Bremerton Typewriter Company for their continued sponsorship of Music at the Market in 2025!

Park it at the Market
We know finding a spot to park for the market isn't always easy so wanted to share a place to park you might not know about and a few places to watch out for.
Our neighbors just a couple blocks away on Park street, Kitsap Community Resources (KCR), have very graciously allowed parking in their lot after 4:30pm. We greatly appreciate their generosity to us and our community where they do so much for so many!
CJ's Evergreen General Store is another fantastic advocate of our market and community, please remember that the 30-minute parking directly in front of the store is for their customers only.
And we kindly ask you to be considerate neighbors by parking only in designated areas. Note that the boating area has only four designated parking spots for market parking. Vehicles parked outside these four spots in the boating area may be ticketed by Parking Enforcement. Yikes!
Thanks so much and we look forward to seeing you for another stellar market day!
Kitsap Harvest at the Market
The mission at Kitsap Harvest is to minimize produce waste and provide fresh, nutritious, and locally sourced fruits and vegetables directly to low-income housing, senior centers, recovery facilities, shelters, and soup kitchens within Kitsap County. The Grow-A-Row program bolsters this mission by inviting gardeners of all levels, from experts to enthusiasts, to cultivate and contribute surplus produce. Weekly donation stations are established throughout the county for collections, including at the Bremerton Community Farmers Market.
Engage in the fight against food insecurity and food waste by supporting the growth of Kitsap County's capacity for sustainable, community driven care. For additional details, visit Programs – Kitsap Harvest or inquire at the market's information booth.
REDUCE FOOD WASTE. DONATE FRESH PRODUCE.
Don't Forget Your Market Tokens
You know those market tokens you've been holding onto? Those tokens are MONEY! The $5 tokens are as good as cash, and all vendors accept them. The $1 tokens are exclusively for SNAP recipients and can be used for purchases typically made with an EBT card. If you have any SNAP Market Match coupons, don't leave them behind. We will honor expired ones, and they can be used with our produce farmers and produce reseller vendors. Bring those tokens to the market and shop!
