Warm Weather, Happy Crowds at Redmond Saturday Market Opening

What a fantastic opening day! Redmond Saturday Market is now open-every Saturday 9:00am - 3:00pm!

Redmond Saturday Market is NOW OPEN! And what a perfect day it was this last Saturday-gorgeous weather, smiling faces, and lots of fun! The market was bursting with excitement as folks returned to shop the fresh local produce and crafts made by local artists. The delicious smells of tamales, sausage sandwichs, crepes and popcorn lingered in the air-making anyone hungry for a bite to eat.

The morning's festivities began with Mayor Marchione doing the honor of cutting the ribbon for the 38th season. The crowd cheered, and a very big, very loud group of Redmond High School's Pep Band students played with an enthusiam than anyone could admire. The Redmond Fire Department also came in full force, parking their engine in the driveway and posing for lots of photos. Heart of Dreams Alpacas brought their adorable critters along for the ride. Folks could visit and feed the alpacas out on the grassy area all day long.
