Elochoman Marina Farmers Market and Trunk Sale season begins

It was busy at the first Elochoman Marina Farmers Market and Trunk Sale of the season on Friday. They had five participants in the trunk sale, and 10 vendors, including eggs from the Town of Taylor, soap from Elochoman Valley Soapworks, and more.

"I think the event went great," Organizer Deb Holland said. "The community support was amazing."

Holland said that they've decided to continue the trunk sale with the market each week. They may have cherries, apples, and asparagus from Naches Trading Post as soon as this Friday, and local produce as soon as it is available.

All vendors are expected to wear masks per the Center for Disease Control, Holland said, and to wipe down products frequently. Some potential vendors decided not to participate in the market because of the rule. However, shoppers are not required to wear masks.
