💛 Meet the Team: Beti 💛

Since joining Washington Community Market in 2025, Beti has become one of the friendly faces our customers know and appreciate.

Her kindness, warm smile, and caring approach help make the Market feel like a true community space, and we’re so lucky to have her on our team.

“I am excited to be a part of the Washington Community Market, and I really enjoy helping our customers. I look forward to growing with the team.” ~ Beti

If you’ve had a positive experience at the Market, a Google review or even a few kind words for our team truly go a long way.

Thank you for continuing to support the people behind the Market.

Sun’s out… picnic snacks, anyone? 🌞

With warmer days ahead (we see you, 23° on Sunday 👀), it’s the perfect time to pick up a few easy snacks, picnic bits, and everyday essentials at the Market.

From quick bites and sweet treats to simple meals and household staples, our May specials are here to help you save a little while enjoying the season.

Not the biggest discounts, but the kind that still make a difference 💛

It’s Monday… and snack cravings don’t wait 🤭

Did you know Washington Community Market also stocks a vending machine at 312 Main?

Just like the Market, it’s stocked and cared for by our team — not outsourced — so every purchase supports the same people and mission you support when you shop with us.

If you’re in the building, stop by the second floor and grab a quick snack. It’s a small, easy way to support the Market (and your Monday cravings 😉)

There are many ways to support us, from shopping in-store to using our vending machines, becoming an organizational account, or simply spreading the word.

Every little bit helps us continue providing affordable food and essentials in our community.

💛 Support comes in many forms

At Washington Community Market, every bit of support helps, and not all of it needs to be financial.

If you've visited the Market or interacted with our team, leaving a Google review is a simple way to help others discover us and understand the role we play in the Downtown Eastside.

As a community economic development initiative of CIRES, our work is rooted in providing affordable access to food and essential goods while supporting a more inclusive local economy.

We're grateful for the feedback we receive and for the community that continues to support this work in so many ways.
