Salmon Creek, Washington, is located seven miles north of downtown Vancouver and the I-5 bridge connecting Washington to Oregon. It is located nine miles north of the I-205 bridge which also connects Washington to Oregon. Salmon Creek is at the northern junction of I-205 and I-5, easy to access from most parts of SW Washington and Oregon.

We enter the 16th season for the market in Salmon Creek. Many vendors who started with the market in 2010 have remained vendors through the years. This is a community-based market and relies on its neighbors, its vendors, its farms, its food producers, its artisans, all of whom are the heart of this market. In return, the market offers the opportunity for vendors to affordably sell their products, meet their customers in a comfortable environment and grow. The market commits to flexibility, integrity, transparency and the opportunity for vendors to sell their products affordably.
