Hillsboro Tuesday Marketplace

Description

The Hillsboro Tuesday Marketplace is a weekly summer outdoor festival and farmers' market in Historic Downtown Hillsboro presented for the community by volunteers and sponsors.

A private nonprofit organization, the Hillsboro Tuesday Marketplace provides a free community gathering place featuring some of the Northwest's best bands and musical entertainment, fresh locally grown produce, flowers and nursery plants, art from local artists, crafts produced by regional artisans, foods from local restaurateurs, a classic car display, information from community organizations, and educational and health programs. It is governed by a board of directors.

The marketplace originated in 1998 as a way to bring people to Historic Downtown Hillsboro and to provide local farmers and crafters another market venue for selling their goods. The event was embraced by the community, and has become a favorite summertime tradition for people of all ages and all walks of life.
