"A great Farmer’s Market is a Gathering Place. A place where Farmers, Producers, Bakers, Chefs, Artists, and the Public come together to celebrate the bounty of their region ... and each other!"

James Peter De Young

Executive Director 

California Fresh Farmers Market Association

The farm-to-table movement is sweeping the globe as consumers are more conscious than ever about the food they consume. Farmers Markets play a critical role as they help educate consumers by connecting them to the dedicated, local farmers and producers. Unlike any experience, one might find at a neighborhood grocery store. Our markets play a critical role as an "Essential Business" providing food to residents in both rural larger cities in

Central California. 

Would your retail center or municipality like to create a California Certified Farmer's Market? We would love to hear from you.
