Family owned and operated since 1938, Yakima Fruit Market and Nursery is a seasonal market open in Bothell from March until October, featuring the best hand selected regional produce in season.  We also have unique groceries, cut flowers, and a wonderful plant selection in our nursery.

Produce and plants arrive seven days a week, so everything is always truly farm-fresh.  In November and December our market transforms into a Christmas tree forest with fresh cut green trees and snowy flocked trees. Do stop in and say hello, sample our produce, and pick up a free copy of The Grapevine, our monthly newsletter. We look forward to seeing you!
