Looking for the ideal weekend adventure away from Seattle, Tacoma, or Puyallup? Mill Haus Cider Co. in Eatonville, WA, offers much more than award-winning cider—we proudly host the Mill Haus Makers’ Markets, our unique take on a traditional Farmers’ Market, celebrating community, craftsmanship, and small businesses since 2021.

Experience Community, Craftsmanship, and Charm

At Mill Haus, we believe small businesses form the roots of our community. Our Makers’ Markets showcase talented artisans, skilled bakers, and passionate creators, bringing neighbors together to gather, reconnect, and catch up with friends and family.
