Spring and florals go together like PB & J, especially here in the Pacific Northwest. That’s why the Pike Place Market Flower Festival is one of the premier opportunities to fill your home with blooms. Not only that, but it’s a great place to shop for last-minute bouquets for Mother’s Day.

This year is Pike Place’s 14th annual festival, featuring over 40 flower vendors. You’ll find all of your favorite blooms, pre-made bouquets as well as the opportunity to craft your own. Treat yourself and buy an arrangement from multiple vendors and end your spring with a home full of local blooms.

While you never need an excuse to buy blooms, this year is an especially important year to support our local flower farmers. Like many other small and local businesses, they have faced lots of hardship throughout the pandemic. While you can shop many of these vendors blooms at the market, you might as well do it on the biggest day of the year.

Of course, you can also shop a selection of spring produce and more from the rest of the market’s vendors. Afterward, you can explore the waterfront and all of your favorite downtown haunts. Enjoy!
