Columbia Pacific Farmers Market

June – September | Fridays 12 – 5 PM | Downtown Long Beach

The Columbia-Pacific Farmers’ Market is on Facebook! Join in!

What’s it all about?

The Columbia-Pacific region is located where the mighty Columbia River crashes into the Pacific Ocean. It is a region of spectacular wholesome foods, plucked straight from the land or the water and ready for the consumer. The Columbia-Pacific Farmers’ Market is an idea that has bubbled up in the community to have a place where the good food and farm crafts of the region can be bought directly from those who farm, ranch, fish, grow, produce packaged foods, or create farm-based crafts here.

It is a market dedicated to supporting our working food producers and artisan crafters honoring their way of life, celebrating our unparalleled food, and getting together as a community to have fun.

The market operates in downtown Long Beach June through September on Friday afternoons / early evenings, 12 pm to 5 pm. At the market, you talk with food purveyors while you purchase your week’s produce, seafood, meat, eggs and dairy, locally-made baked goods, regionally-made packaged foods, flowers and plants, on-site prepared foods, and artisan crafts. You can sit and listen to music or other entertainment, beat your friend at checkers, chat and dance with your neighbor, watch someone cook, or learn about a community non-profit organization. Later that evening, you could take in a Feast at one of several local restaurants, where you will eat foods from the market and learn what it is like to farm, fish, or ranch from those who do so. And you can always shop in downtown Long Beach. There isn’t a better way to start your weekend at the beach!

Our vision and mission statements, and core values

Vision Statement

The vision of the Columbia-Pacific Farmers’ Market is to link regional farmers, fishers, growers, and producers with consumers, putting fresh, wholesome, regionally sourced foods in the hands of those who most need and desire them, thereby strengthening our citizens and visitors, our working food producers, our environment, our economy, and our community overall.

Mission Statement

The mission of the Columbia-Pacific Farmers’ Market is to strengthen the health of our citizens and visitors; increase sales of our regional food producers and local businesses; improve the environment; and build community. We will accomplish this mission by providing a marketplace where farmers, fishers, growers, and producers will directly sell their fresh, regionally-sourced goods to consumers; and where community members can come together on a regular basis in a pleasant, safe, and festive atmosphere.

Core Values

The core values of the Columbia-Pacific Farmers’ Market are as follows:

  1. We support regional farmers, fishers, growers, and producers by facilitating direct links to wholesale and retail purchasers of their goods.
  2. We support farmers, fishers, growers, and producers by providing land, guidance, financing, and infrastructure for a weekly farmers’ market.
  3. We support the environment, the economy, and human health by reducing the distance between the source of food and the consumer of that food.
  4. We build community by providing a regular meeting place for our citizens and visitors to shop, enjoy entertainment, and play with one another.
  5. We support the performing arts by providing a weekly entertainment venue.
  6. We support our local businesses by attracting citizens and visitors to the downtown business core on a weekly basis.
  7. We actively support children and their overall well-being by incorporating kid-friendly activities during the market.
