There are so many local and small artisans here. I came here for the strawberries, although I also spontaneously picked up some plants on a whim. All the produce looked super fresh. I already had lunch plans, so I had to avoid the row of food vendors as the scents smelled very delicious. Parking can be found along the residential area streets. They are abutting the Grocery Outlet, but the parking lot is only for Grocery Outlet customers, so don't park there! I saw port-a-potties for restrooms. This market is very well attended, and so if you're worried about stuff getting sold out, get here early.

Some vendors are there every week, others show up more infrequently, but there's always something to see. The market was one of two Portland sights that were on the must-visit list for recent out of town guests. In case you have prefences or pooches, dogs are not permitted before 10 AM, so plan accordingly. A good thing about this market location is that part of it exists in the parking lot for Grocery Outlet, so if you're also looking for things that were not harvested within the previous 48 hours, the supermarket has your back.

One of my favorite markets, Sheridan's, is in jeopardy of going out of business. Not only is…read moreSheridan's one of my faves, it's the oldest market on Produce Row. While it's a retail market with fresh fruit and veggies, a high quality butcher counter, deli, pantry items, spices, grains and beans, and premade meals, the bulk of their business is supplying to hundreds of local restaurants. During and after Covid, many of these restaurants went out of business which affects the entire supply chain. Sheridan's has suffered. Additionally, suppliers have raised their prices and residential shopping in the area has greatly decreased. All these factors combined have had serious consequences to this once thriving market. Sadly. When I stopped in earlier this month to buy escarole, a green leafy veg for Italian wedding soup, I was shocked to find most of the shelves bare. I was heartbroken, actually. This gem of a store has enabled me to make all of my favorite Italian dinners because they carry ingredients that most other stores don't. I'm from an Italian family and lived my entire life in NJ until moving to Portland in 2000. The first fall, when the weather chilled and I was craving Italian Wedding Soup, escarole was not available anywhere. Thankfully I found Sheridan's and have been a loyal customer ever since. I am doing my best to support them by buying my produce and veggies there, plus whatever other items I can find that I need. It is challenging since their shelves are not stocked, which means I buy what I can at Sheridan's and supplement from another grocery store. But that's what you do to help a business in need. Please, if you live in the area, buy what is available and help them through this very difficult time. Sheridan's is such a gem and it would be a tremendous loss to Portland to lose this market.

So we waited in line and noticed he has several regulars. He knew their names , orders, etc. and he held genuine conversations with each of them. When it was our turn, he was the most nicest barista- he gave us undivided attention, gave my dog 2 treats, acknowledged my son and took the time to explain to me what a Shakerato was (all of this with a smile! ) The drink was amazing and he even let us try our drinks before we walked away. I've been to numerous coffee places in my life and this was the best experience by far! One warning- you will have to wait in line for a bit. ( it's worth the wait though! )So if you're in a hurry, then maybe this wouldn't be your vibe. But for a relaxed weekend, this was great! We can't wait to return again on our next trip!

I'm always amazed this store is still in business as I rarely see anyone shopping there and I have stopped in the 42nd Street Station many times a year for the past 20 years. The small store is packed with clothing, accessories, books, cards and even candy, which seems random! The skirts, pants and tunics are made in different parts of the Himalayas and are loose fitting, some adorned with sequins. I like their cards, most printed on rice paper. According to their website, the store was established to support artists from the Himalayas and to provide those that are also interested in contributing to the 'Save the Artisan's Skill Project( SASP), a permanent place of access. Their website explains their products and mission: We carry handmade crafts from Himalayan Region including Nepal, Bhutan, Sikkim, Darjeeling, Kalimpong, Ladak and Tibet. Some of our items are produced under the women's development project; some are from industrial development project located in Lalitpur, Bhaktapur, Kantipur, Kirtipur in Nepal and some are self employees as domestic leisure works. We also carry publications from Snow Lion, New York; Dharma Center,Shambala, California; Amber Lotus and Graphic Art Center publishing; Oregon; including books, calendars, greeting / post cards, note books, Paubha / thanka paintings (scroll) and rice paper prints and many more relating to Himalayan region.
