the 2017 season.

Coming Attractions:
Dimitri Olive Oil has been missing recently due to technical issues with
their new olive oil crop. We hope to see them in the coming weeks.

Sadly, ECO City Farms had a major crop failure so we won’t expect them back
until some time in March.

As far as we know, we’re outside from here on out. We will be open
Thursdays, 3 to 7PM on February 22nd, March 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd, and 29th.

Important Notices:
Food safety notice: Due to our county's health department regulations, dogs
are no longer welcome at the farmers market. We love dogs but had too many
incidents.
