According to Wikipedia the Eugene Saturday market originally opened on May 9th 1970, with 29 vendors. Each vendor payed $1 to participate. It has approximately 150 vendors weekly. Ele S.

According to Wikipedia, in 1978 a county task force was created to determine if a farmers' market could be successful if it were located near or in the Saturday Market. The idea was to offer an open-air place for local farmers to grow and sell their produce. Based on the recommendation from the task force the county approved the farmers' market. It was officially opened in August 1979.-Ele S.





As for live music the Saturday Market is great! Just about anyone can play, and more importantly everyone will listen. There have been choirs, bands, solo singers and guitarist groups. Sometimes even my school's marimba band has played-Ele S.

Great crafts and local food! On 8th and Oak open from 9:AM to 5:PM. Rain or shine and everyone can go. Just no pets!-Ele S.

There are, at the moment, 18 different food booths. Including food from Afghanistan, Thailand, Mexico, India, France Japan, Italy and England.-Ele S

Each week 200 or more booths are in business.-McKenzie .C

3,000 to 5,000 come to Saturday Market each week.-McKenzie .C

According to the Eugene Saturday Market's website here are some of the rules to being a member of the Saturday Market: Your goods must be made, grown, collected or built by hand and by the vendor, by a close family member or a partner in the carft who lives in Oregon. By Maya K.
