If you want to get to know your farmer, this is a great market to do that! There is a great community between all the vendors and we LOVE our customers.

Phillip placed second at the 2018 Seattle International Comedy Competition, and has performed in bars, clubs, winery’s, theaters from Vancouver BC to Orlando, Florida. Venue owners have deemed him funny enough to work with many famous and a lot of not-so-famous people, and he recently released his first special on Dry Bar Comedy.
Deece Casillas grew up in Los Angeles, CA, and began his comedy career over ten years ago doing sketch, improv, and comedy writing, before making his way into stand-up comedy. Deece now lives in the PNW, and you can find him performing as a regular at The Spokane Comedy Club, Tacoma Comedy Club, Jokers Comedy Club, and more. He produces shows across the country, is host/producer of the Drink N’ Debate comedy competition, and host of the long running talk show, The Social Hour, which was launched in July of 2014.
