Now is the time to get your creative ideas flowing for the annual Lopez farmers market poster contest. You could win a cash prize if your poster is selected by the local community. The poster must reflect your vision of Farmer’s market theme. Artists and anyone willing to do it should design and create a poster of their own choosing. We have had a wide variety of winning posters. You should live on Lopez to enter the contest.

The poster must include relevant information about the market. Title needs to include Lopez Island Farmers Market. Then add May – September Saturdays in the village 10am-2pm. It needs to be 11 inches by 17 inches with a white border of 1/2 inch. The prize will be $350 CASH. The posters will hang in the post office for local folks for a vote for their favorite poster. Deadline is March 1, 2020. Email julesmcl@rockisland.com or call 360-468-2123 for more info. Have fun and give it a try as everyone loves seeing them at the post office.
