F3, a free national men’s workout group:

We have a local workout location that meets at Hiawatha park on Tuesday mornings at 5:30 am sharp. The group has been around for a few years, so many folks that are up early might have come across us before doing burpees or pushups and counting out loud. We’d love to extend the invite to men of any fitness level – we work out as a group and don’t leave anyone behind, come as you are and hopefully leave a bit better.

The workout is 45 minutes long and then we all get coffee at West Seattle Grounds. You don’t need to bring anything special, just wear comfortable athletic clothes appropriate for the weather and some sneakers. Some work or gardening gloves can be helpful if you have a pair. Just don’t be late or the whole group is doing penalty burpees.

Dust off your reusable totes and mark your calendars: the Delridge Farmers Market is back with more vendors, an array of culturally rich foods, handcrafted goods, and community-driven initiatives. Kicking off its 2025 season on Saturday, May 17, this beloved community hub will run every Saturday from 10 AM to 2 PM until the end of October at 9421 18th Ave SW.

Hosted by African Community Housing & Development (ACHD), the Delridge Farmers Market is a celebration of culture, community, and culinary creativity. As one of Seattle’s most culturally diverse markets, it offers a platform where local entrepreneurs with global perspectives share foods and goods that reflect the rich tapestry of our city’s diversity.

What’s Fresh This Season?
Expect a blend of global flavors and handmade crafts at the Delridge Farmers Market — from Afella Jollof’s authentic Senegambian dishes like jollof rice and goat dibi to Queen Sugar Baking Company’s irresistible Southern comfort treats. This season, the market proudly welcomes two new regenerative farms to its roster: Coyote Run Farms of Woodinville and Bahati Farm of Kent, expanding access to fresh, locally grown produce.

But the Delridge Farmers Market is about more than just good food and handmade goods — it’s a hub for holistic community care. Each market serves as a one-stop shop for health and wellness needs, offering free services for the public like acupuncture, massage, or vaccinations, along with essential basic needs like diapers and dental hygiene kits to support neighbors’ well-being. Here, shopping local isn’t just a transaction — it’s a way to uplift the entire community.

Food Access for All
The Delridge Farmers Market is dedicated to making fresh, culturally relevant food accessible to the community. To support this mission, the market offers unlimited SNAP-EBT Market Match, Fresh Bucks, and WIC and Senior FMNP benefits. In addition, every youth under 18 receives a free $5 ACHD Youth Bucks voucher, helping them build healthy spending habits from an early age.

The Delridge Farmers Market proudly sources local produce from its farmer vendors to distribute free of charge, giving away more than 50 bags of high-quality vegetables at each market. To further support farmers and reduce food waste, the market also purchases unsold produce at the end of the day, ensuring guaranteed sales for vendors. This produce is then donated to local community organizations or brought back to ACHD’s offices to be shared with clients in need.

More Than a Market
Beyond the stalls, the Delridge Farmers Market pulses with life — serving as a hub where community connections thrive. Organizations like Pongo Poetry Project and Art is Not a Privilege set up alongside vendors, offering engaging youth activities and facilitating deeper connections at each market day. Nonprofits collaborate to share program information, highlight local initiatives, and provide engaging activities that foster a sense of belonging. The market is more than a place to shop — it’s where stories are shared, friendships are formed, and the community truly comes alive.

On short notice a single person rallied 70+ people for a neighborhood protest in the Alaska Junction on April 5th! Many people said they’d like to see something like it on a regular basis. So in solidarity with the very successful Tesla Takedowns on Saturdays as well as showing there’s a groundswell of resistance spreading into neighborhoods all across the country, beginning this Saturday from 10-12 in the Alaska Junction there will be a West Seattle Resists rally. How can people participate? You can join us in the Alaska Junction, you can spread the word all around the Peninsula (Alaska Junction is well served by several bus lines), and you can also organize other rallies in all the neighborhoods that make West Seattle so wonderful.

Hope to see you there! Bring signs, things that make noise, and chairs if that is helpful.

West Seattle Junction FC vs Snohomish FC, (West Seattle Food Bank Collection) 7/6/25 @ 4 pm, Southwest Athletic Complex. Free Ice cream treats for the kids, raffles, giveaways, face painting, and more!

This summer, Dacha Theatre presents Simon Henriques and Skylar Fox’s The Grown-Ups on an intimate campfire tour of the Puget Sound, directed by Nick O’Leary.

Originally devised by Brooklyn-based experimental theater company Nightdrive and named one of the Top 10 NYC Theater Productions of 2021 by TimeOut New York, The Grown-Ups is a perfect fit for local immersive experts Dacha. With timely questions about how to be a leader in moments of crisis, the show will particularly resonate as we navigate the 2025 political turmoil.

Welcome to Camp Indigo Woods. (The alumni aren’t thrilled about the name change, but it’s really way more ~ inclusive ~ this way!) The campers are all finally asleep, and the lake is getting quiet. Crack a cold one, make a s’more, tell a scary story. Figure out what you’re going to have to do in the morning to keep camp fun and safe without letting the kids find out about…well, you’ve seen the news. Following a group of camp counselors trying to mold the leaders of tomorrow when tomorrow is looking bleaker and bleaker, The Grown-Ups explores the traditions that change us, what it takes for us to change them, and how to change yourself when you’re hopelessly, tragically not prepared for this.

“The Grown-Ups is part satire, part scary story. […] Doing theater this intimate is like doing close-up magic.” — The New York Times

“The spirit of community pervades the experience until the play’s chilling and beautiful final moments, performed in near-total darkness.” — Broadstreet Review

“The Grown-Ups approaches theater as an act of radical intimacy.” — TimeOut New York

Dacha’s production invites you around the campfire for camp legends, quick wits, and some uncomfortably timely questions about what doing the right thing really means. Fans of sharp-tongued comedy with a point of view like The Good Place or Superstore will love The Grown-Ups. Touring parks and backyards in the Puget Sound area, choose between real-fire and theatrical-fire options and bring a blanket or camp chair.

The Grown-Ups opens June 28th in Mukilteo, and runs through August 3rd at intimate park venues and secret pop-up locations around the Puget Sound. Tickets are available on a sliding scale, with tiered pricing ranging from $25 to $50 and a pay-what-you-can option available for all performances. Tickets are available online at dachatheatre.com/grownups.

Two sets, 8 pm and 9 pm, on Sundays.

Sundays & Wednesdays, 9 pm-1:30 am – Karaoke with KJ host and West Seattle legend Loretta.

Grief Support Groups

Grief groups are brave and safe spaces where bereaved people can share their stories and speak their loved one’s name without fear of getting advice, platitudes, or being shut out, no matter how long it’s been since their loved one’s passing. Every participant has dedicated time to speak about whatever they’d like, without judgment or interruption. Talking about our deceased loved ones in a supportive environment helps us remember them fully and helps us learn to carry the weight of their loss a little more gently.

These are ongoing, drop-in groups, but space is limited. Because of the sensitive nature of traumatic loss, the Thursday group is open only for those who are traumatic loss survivors. Learn more and register at listeningtogrief.com/groups. Contact Tamara at tamara@listeningtogrief.com with questions.

F3, a free national men’s workout group:

We have a local workout location that meets at Hiawatha park on Tuesday mornings at 5:30 am sharp. The group has been around for a few years, so many folks that are up early might have come across us before doing burpees or pushups and counting out loud. We’d love to extend the invite to men of any fitness level – we work out as a group and don’t leave anyone behind, come as you are and hopefully leave a bit better.

The workout is 45 minutes long and then we all get coffee at West Seattle Grounds. You don’t need to bring anything special, just wear comfortable athletic clothes appropriate for the weather and some sneakers. Some work or gardening gloves can be helpful if you have a pair. Just don’t be late or the whole group is doing penalty burpees.

Totem Poles and Seattle
Rebecca Albiani

Thursday, July 10 at 6 pm via Zoom
Historically, the monumental sculptures we call totem poles were carved by First Peoples living far to the north of Puget Sound. How did the totem pole become a symbol of Seattle? Who carved the pole currently residing at the Log House Museum? We’ll hear the outrageous, tragic, and moving stories behind some of Seattle’s oldest and newest Native poles.

Ms. Albiani studied Italian and Art History at UC Berkeley, graduating with highest honors, and earned a Master’s in art history at Stanford where she focused on 16th Century Venetian painting. While a graduate student she received a Fulbright Scholarship for research in Venice. She moved to Seattle in 1996 and for over 20 years has been a popular art history lecturer at the Frye Art Museum, where her topics have ranged from ancient Egypt to contemporary art. She lectures widely in the Puget Sound area and particularly enjoys introducing audiences to unfamiliar artists.
