Milwaukie Sunday Farmers Market has been a gathering place for residents of Milwaukie and surrounding neighborhoods for the past 10 years. Every Sunday between May and October, the streets are alive with customers carrying bags of local produce, plants and garden crafts fresh from the market. Our farmers market has become the centerpiece to a revived downtown and will continue to be an energetic force in Milwaukie, inspiring more business and commerce along our changing Main Street.
