The newest produce stand in town, West Seattle Produce at 4721 Fauntleroy SW is holding their long awaited Grand Opening June 5 and 6.
After a few delays in the arrival of refrigerated cases, "things have come together and we're doing well," said one of the owners Mike Cairns.

"We're getting some special buys on mangos and avocados. Tons of wonderful, super sweet California corn, both white and yellow. We've got bins of watermelons coming. We've got a very special melon called an 'orange flesh honeydew' that is the tastiest melon you've ever sunk your teeth into. We'll have papaya and lots of pineapple," said Cairns. Also new at the stand is Oak Leaf Lettuce (in addition to Red and Green leaf lettuce) from Whidbey Island. "It's naturally grown," said Cairns which means it is grown without pesticides. "It takes 7 years to till and retill the land to become certified organic and they have two years to go at this farm so, we can't call it organic but it's as close as possible to that designation."

On both days there will be product demonstrations by Vashon Island Roasterie, Smith Brothers Farms, a landscape designer from Rich's Landscaping. The nursery prices will offer prices 10% above wholesale, Also happening during the event will be arts and crafts and live music and food available (beyond the amazing array of fresh produce), from Two Chefs Gourmet Falafel creating fresh mediterranean food.
Also featured will be Remlinger Farms products, Pastas and oils from Pappardelle Pasta, and Beecher's Cheese.
Senior discounts will be offered during the event.

The event will run from 8 AM to 7PM on Saturday June 5 and 9 AM to 5 PM Sunday June 6.
