Washington s Harbor District Market has been around for less than two years, but it s already made a big impact in the community and has quickly become a gathering place for people who want locally made goods in a historic atmosphere.
The Market, located in the heart of downtown, is home to 26 full-time vendors and is a mix of produce, craft, and baked goods that must be locally grown or made. The one-of-a-kind retail location attracts as many as 1,500 visitors on Saturdays as purveyors peruse goods and gifts from shops in the renovated McClellan s Department Store.
