Villebois Sunday Market's Canby Asparagus Farm featured in the Oregonian

Canby Asparagus Farms' Casa de Tamales -- its downtown Milwaukie restaurant -- was featured in the Oregonian's A&E section this week as one of the four best places in the Portland Metro area to find a tamale...and you can find them each week at the Villebois Sunday Market!

So if you live in Wilsonville, and you want great tamales (there are even two varieties with asparagus in them!), deep-fried asparagus, honking huge Spanish omelets (that are out of this world...and can feed three people), empanadas, or even your more traditional tacos, burritos, chile rellenos, and enchiladas, you don't have to drive all the way out to Milwaukie! Just come down to the corner of SW Villebois Road and SW Barber Drive between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. and satisfy your craving for top-notch Mexican cuisine.

Did this article make you hungry? In addition to Canby Asparagus Farm, the Villebois Sunday Market also offers high-end cuisine at affordable prices:

• Villebois' own, the Village Waffle Baker, which has a variety of sweet and savory Belgian waffle sandwiches and paninis (they even have beignets!);
• Ribslayer to go, which offers Italian sausage sandwiches, pulled pork sandwiches, lamb burgers...and more;
• Lucy's Tropical Juice, which offers fresh squeezed fruit juice with fresh chunks of fruit to munch on after the juice is gone. Hot tip: the orange juice has eight -- yes, that's eight -- oranges squeezed to order (equals more than 500 mg of vitamin C); and
• J. Gelati Italian Ice, which offers several flavors of Italian ice cream (the mango is exceptionally yummy!).

Open Call for Quality Oregon Vendors

Applications for Oregon and Washington produce, food and craft vendors are now being accepted by a new nonprofit, the Villebois Sunday Market.  The market, in the Villebois Village Center, in Wilsonville, Ore., is located at the corners of Villebois Village Drive and Barber Street and is slated to run from May 3 to October 18.  Vendor stalls start at $25/day with flexible dates and discounts available.  To receive application information, please contact villeboissundaymarket@gmail.com or call 503-241-3834.

This community nonprofit will operate on Sundays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and organizers hope to offer a variety of local entertainment, fresh seasonal produce, baked goods, arts and crafts and other Oregon farm-produced goods -- from cheese to honey to wine.  Additionally, local artisans, florists and nursery vendors are welcome to have stalls at the weekly event.

Convenient vendor loading and parking areas adjoin the market area, which is surrounded by hundreds of established single and multiple family residences in the heart of Wilsonville.

Locally owned Costa Pacific Communities, noted for its transit-friendly, award-winning communities is underwriting the costs for the Villebois Sunday Market.  The company received national attention for the planning and development of Orenco Station in Hillsboro, a 190-acre mixed-use community located along the Westside MAX light rail line.  In 1999, Orenco Station was named "Master Planned Community of the Year" by the National Association of Home Builders.  The Orenco Station Farmers Market started the same year.  The Orenco Station Sunday Market now has more than 75 vendors and operates year-round.
