SUBJECT: Administrative Report
The Renton Farmers Market will open for its 19th season on Tuesday, June 9. This
year’s market has been designed as a quick in-and-out destination for essential food
shopping while following the COVID-19 regulations established by Public Health –
Seattle & King County (PHSKC). You’ll enter and exit the market through separate
designated areas. Market staff will monitor the number of shoppers inside to ensure
proper social distancing. We’re asking, if possible, that you consider sending only
one shopper to the market and come with a list. This will allow a maximum number
of people to enjoy the market. Shoppers will also be asked to wear face coverings to
adhere to the PHSKC directive that took effect earlier this month. These steps are
vital to help ensure the market remains safe for everyone. Please look for the signs
and if you have questions, market staff will be happy to help. The market will be
held every Tuesday through September 29 from 3 to 7 p.m. in Gateway Park, just
west of its usual Piazza Park location. Free two-hour parking is available in the
nearby City Center Garage and the Renton Transit Center is one block away.
