The Des Moines Waterfront Farmers Market opens on June 7, promising an exciting lineup of new vendors and activities. This season follows a record year, with a 20% increase in success over 2012. Market manager Rikki Marohl emphasized the return of favorites like Waterfront White wine, which supports the market's Endowment Fund, and features ten food trucks during the SeattleFoodTruck. com Truck-In. The market encourages attendees to donate old musical instruments for the Highline Music4Life program, which refurbishes them for students who cannot afford them.

The Rotary Club of Des Moines has contributed $10,000 to support this initiative, reflecting community engagement. The market is committed to enhancing family-friendly activities, aiming for greater participation this year. With growth in vendors and shoppers, the market solidifies its status as a premier destination in King County.
