This year's produce is starting to arrive on Mondays at Monday Market at Palmer Depot. Come to the historical Palmer Train Depot on Mondays from 11:30am - 6pm, and buy fresh local produce and local plants directly from the farmers.
We have several vendors selling veggies, herbs, tomatoes, rhubarb and more. Plant starts are still available, but going quickly. Come support local farmers and artisans. We are a member of the Alaska Farmers Market Association, and our market supports local organic farming, produce and food products, as well as high-quality, exquisite, handmade crafts by local artisans.
Monday Market at Palmer Depot and Saturday's local flea market at the Downtown Palmer Pavilion called, “Get the Junk Out of the Trunk”, both provide aid to homeless women in the Mat-Su Valley by availing them housing and job training. Supporting these two markets supports housing local homeless women and teaching them to care for themselves through training them to run their own cottage business.
The following are some of the vendors that sell at Monday Market at Palmer Depot:
Ewenique Designs AK, Beading by RGR, 2 Gallon Forest, Ruby's Alaska Garden, Alaska Forge, LC Honey Things, Jingle Jellies, Alaska Soaps and Scents, Brightspot Communications Mediation and Communication Services, Lance's Knives, Pillows for Kids Foundation, Ginger's Treasures, Vitali and Monica Family Farm, NonEssentials, Turkey Red and many more local businesses.
