Spring Market and Plant Sale
May 3, 2025 @ 10:00 am – 4:00 pm
Join us at Carnation Farms to celebrate Spring! We will be hosting our annual Spring Market and Plant Sale down in our Lower Farm area on May 3rd from 10am-4pm.
Enjoy hot food from the outdoor pizza oven, live music from a dynamic duo, farmer-led tours around the crops, and begin your spring garden with some plant-starts from our greenhouses. Check out our sheep in the field and snap a picture of your little ones sitting on a historic tractor.
Plenty of fun for the whole family! (but please leave your pets at home).
Need a gift for Mother’s Day? Over 20 local artisan vendors will be available with their hand-made products for purchase. Homemade soaps, clothes, art, sweets, gifts, and more! (Vendor Applications are closed at this time).
Special musical guests, McNamee & Michaud formed in early 2025 in a chance meeting at Up West Fest. Both established Pacific NW solo artists in their own right, they now have plans for dominance in the world of Folk, Americana and Roots Country music. It’s been said they put the cut in cute. If you like Johnny and June or Gram and Emmylou, you may find them reputable.
Spring Market Q&A:
Can I bring my dog?
We love furry friends, but please leave dogs at home for this event. Thanks for helping us keep the sheep calm!
What’s the best way to get there?
Skip the traffic and ride your bike if you can! It’s a beautiful ride and the perfect way to start your market day. If you are driving, please carpool as parking is limited.
What about parking?
Parking is available at the Lower Farm. Please follow the signage, drive slowly on farm roads, and go no more than 5mph across the bridge when exiting.
Will there be food available?
Yes! Our Culinary Team will be serving up delicious food for purchase from our pizza oven. Bring a picnic blanket/folding chairs and enjoy your meal on the lawn!
Should I bring my own water?
Absolutely. Bring a reusable water bottle—we’ll have cold refill stations available throughout the event.
Are there tours during the event?
Yes! Join us for hourly Crops & Livestock Tours between 11am–3pm. You’ll visit our sheep in the pastures and learn how regenerative agriculture guides everything we do—from soil health to animal care.
Will there be live music?
Yes! McNamee & Michaud will be performing from 11am-2pm near the covered food pavilion. Bring a blanket or chair and spread out with a slice of hot pizza to enjoy this folksy duo!
Where is the market located?
You’ll find a few of our specialty vendors near the Farmstand, but the main event takes place down at the Lower Farm. Just follow the signs to our Field Road (to the right of the Farmstand).
What if it rains?
No problem—this event is happening rain or shine! The food area is covered, and all our vendors will have their own shelters, so come prepared for any weather and enjoy the day.
