Forest Grove, OR In 2005, Adelante Mujeres launched the Forest Grove Farmers Market, fostering cross-cultural exchange during this family-focused community event. 15 years later, in partnership with the City of Cornelius, Adelante Mujeres launched the Cornelius Farmers Market in the summer of 2020. The mission of the Farmers Markets is to strengthen our local food system, economic vitality, and community identity. We do this by providing access to fresh, local and artisan food products sold directly from the farmers and producers themselves.
One of the most diverse events in the area, the outdoor Forest Grove and Cornelius Farmers Markets attract a weekly total average of more than 2,500 visitors of all ages and demographic groups to share good food and listen to local musicians. We strive to provide an outlet for small farmers and food producers so that they may connect with the community by offering fresh, local goods.
Market vendors offer a wide selection of local goods ranging from fresh produce, eggs, meat, honey, baked goods and prepared foods to flowers, plant starts, hand-crafted soaps, wine, and more. The markets also serve as a small-business incubator for businesses participating in the Regenerative Agriculture Program and the Empresas Small Business Development program.
