New Year

The ante is kicked up a few notches in 2014…. the first day in January fell on a new moon. The last time this happened was 19 years ago…what does this mean….

The new moon signals a clean slate…a new beginning, a fresh start …prepare to reset.

Smile and breathe deeply….and get into high gear in full stride….bundle up and head on back to the farmers’ market to reconnect with the farmers!
Recharge by finding the freshest, best ingredients for your favorite winter recipes. Resolve to spend time with family by preparing and sharing healthy meals and conversation at the table.

January starts the parade of National Food Holidays.
Lucky January….means citrus is in season ….treat yourself to freshly squeezed tangerine or blood orange juice!

Let’s all focus our collective thoughts on much needed rain for a productive year!

Our Gratitude to the City Councils and city staff for their continued support, including police services and Allied Waste thank you!

Come see us every Sunday. Open year round rain or shine!
Enter the monthly Raffle at the Information Booth!

We’re working on a fresh look for February…keep an eye out….watch this space!

We accept EBT & WIC
