“We are thrilled to offer a way to connect local small businesses with customers in a safe and festive environment at the Pavilion,” said Garrett Jones, Director of Parks & Recreation and Resident Experience for the City of Spokane. “We’re all focused on doing what we can to support our downtown and neighborhood shops, and this farmers market is one piece of that effort city-wide.”

The market will follow the Washington State Department of Health Farmers Market COVID safety protocols. Vendors will be placed throughout the Pavilion Central Plaza (outdoors), with limited retail from small local businesses inside the Pavilion Main Lobby and Sky Room. Booths will be spaced apart, there will be limited occupancy, everyone is asked to wear a mask and maintain distancing, and sanitizing stations will be in place.

The market is in partnership with the Fairwood Farmers Market. Below is a snapshot of several vendors anticipated to be at the market; additional vendors may be added up to 20.
