10Best Says

At PCC Community Markets, a member-owned cooperative, you'll find fresh, local and organic produce, quality meats and sustainable seafood at more than a dozen Seattle-area locations. And while these are certainly great places to do one's grocery shopping (or pick up a quick, hot meal on the go), they're also a lesser-known destination for stocking up on gifts (think journals, books, knitted goods and kitchenware) by local companies and artisans for your friends or loved ones. Also consider gifting tasty local goodies ranging from chocolate (Theo, Fran's and Seattle Chocolate Company's seasonal holiday bars) to Washington wines and beers from neighboring businesses like Fremont Brewing. Other great gifts? The PCC Cooking From Scratch Cookbook, cooking class certificates plus PCC gift cards.

Best Shopping: "Check out cooking classes offered by PCC, too, for those who prefer "experience" versus material gifts! On Sundays, you can combine a Fremont PCC run with a visit to the year-round Fremont Fair, a vibrant market showcasing local artisans who take over the street that runs adjacent to the store (or right below the Fremont Bridge, in winter months)."
