Camas Farmer's Market

The Camas Farmer’s Market frames itself around a clear mission: creating an agriculturally based market in downtown Camas where local farms are nurtured and supported and the harvest is celebrated. That mission lands in a very specific place each week, with the market running on 4th Avenue between Everett and Franklin in Historic Downtown Camas. The seasonal Wednesday schedule gives the market an after-work rhythm, pairing farm shopping with prepared food, demos, and family activities rather than treating produce as the only draw.

Why it matters locally

Historic Downtown Camas is central to how this market defines itself, with the market’s mission tied directly to creating an agriculturally based farmers market in downtown Camas. That local emphasis shows up in the vendor mix: Camas-grown produce from Shady Grove Farm, Camas/Washougal-raised beef and pork from Windy River Livestock, Downtown Camas-made soaps from The Soap Chest, and Washougal businesses including Bakehouse Sourdough and Flavorsmyth BBQ.

The market also extends beyond shopping through partnerships and education. Tours are offered with WSU SNAP-Ed, weekly chef demos are partnered with The Tod & Maxine McClaskey Culinary Institute, and a community composting pilot launched with EatWell Camas Community Garden.

What you'll find there

The vendor roster leans heavily toward summer produce, berries, bread, and ready-to-eat dinner options, with a strong Clark County and Columbia Gorge presence.

Healthy Living Demos run from 3pm to 5pm and include cooking demos, master gardener demos, and nutrition education presentations. Kids’ activities run at the Kid’s Connection booth from 3pm to 7pm, with Produce Pals also part of the market’s activity lineup.

The Wednesday market calendar gives Camas Farmer’s Market a distinctly seasonal thread built around what is ripe and what families can do together. Berry Days on July 8 centers the market’s summer fruit peak with complimentary berry shortcake for the first 300 customers plus berry-themed kids crafts and activities. Veggie Fest on August 5 shifts the focus to tastings, samples, photo ops, and kids activities built around fresh vegetables. By September 30, the annual Harvest Festival adds live music, food options, knife sharpening, face painting, pumpkin bowling, and Harvest Story Time. Across the season, that programming sits alongside weekly Healthy Living Demos and the Kid’s Connection booth, so the market reads less like a quick produce stop and more like a standing Wednesday routine in downtown Camas.

Know before you go

No dogs are allowed, which is the detail most likely to change your plans before you head downtown. The market runs on Wednesdays from 3pm to 7pm during its June-through-September season, with the event calendar placing it on 4th Avenue between Everett and Franklin in Historic Downtown Camas. The market also lists a temporary 2026 downtown location at 314 NE Birch Street, including opening-day programming there, so visitors following older habits should pay attention to the current season’s setup. Restrooms are not available on site.

Payments & SNAP

SNAP/EBT is accepted at Camas Farmer’s Market. The market also highlights farmers participating in the Farmers Market Nutrition Program/WIC, which adds another route for produce-focused shopping within the vendor mix. Payment methods are clearly posted by the market, which helps when you are splitting purchases between farm stands and prepared-food vendors.
