Mercer Island Farmers Market
On Sundays at Mercerdale Park, Mercer Island turns into a small town honey hive where local beekeepers sling jars of honey between produce and flowers. The Mercer Island Farmers Market isn't a single honey maker; it's a rotating lineup where honey slips into the stalls from nearby beekeepers, part of the farm-to-table rhythm that makes this island special. You get a true taste of the region's blossoms in a jar, with the kind of subtle floral notes and earthly sweetness that tell you the hive spent time in Washington summers. Beyond honey, the market features fresh produce, seasonal flowers, and bites that shift with the week, all under shade trees and the island breeze. To buy, swing by Mercerdale Park on Sundays, say hello to the beekeepers, and wander the stalls as live music drifts through the lanes. It feels like a community swap meet where everyone knows your name and your honey jar might be the souvenir.
