The "BFF" in Bates Family Foods also stands for Basic Fare...with Flair! Everything we produce, from our Pickled Veggies to our Gourmet Jams comes from a place of authenticity. From time with farmers who supply us, to working in the processing facility, we are "elbow deep" in what we do, as we have a long-standing passion for unconventional, yet delicious food!
Bates Family Foods put down roots in 2017, selling first in the Broadway, Tacoma Farmer's Market, then to the Point Ruston Farmer's Market inagural season. In 2018 and 2019, Bates Family Foods called the Puyallup Farmer's Market home and we look forward to 2020 with Puyallup, as well. We appreciate the opportunity to develop an intimate relationship to our customers and friends, as well as with our fellow vendors in the Farmer's Market community, by actually meeting and getting to know them.
We are Mark and Noel Bates, we hail from the great city of Tacoma, WA, and we are Bates Family Foods. We hope you enjoy our creations as much as we've enjoyed making them!
Cheers~
Mark and Noel Bates
