7 DAYS UNTIL DUNSMUIR FARMERS MARKET OPENS !!!

Dunsmuir Farmers Market Opening

Dunsmuir Farmers Market will open Thursday, June 27. Julia’s Fruit Stand will join the Market again with peaches and different varieties of tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, onions, and other fruit and vegetables. Cattle Call from Montague will bring different cuts of locally grown beef, pork, and lamb. Silvia’s Tamales features handmade pork, beef, and chicken tamales.

The Dunsmuir Community Garden will have a variety of produce as the season progresses. Thunderbird Microgreens will bring microgreens and hand raised mushrooms.

The Dunsmuir Community Market will be open Thursdays throughout the summer except for holidays from 4 to 6:30 pm. It will be in the parking lot of the Dunsmuir Community Center Building at 4835 Dunsmuir Avenue next to the baseball stadium and the entrance to the Botanical Garden.

Some vendors accept credit cards as well as cash. EBT purchases are matched up to $20, as long as funds are available, doubling eligible customers’ ability to purchase fresh, local produce and other food.

Individuals interested in being vendors at the market can call Dunsmuir Community Resource Center at 530-235-4400 for information and an application. Local residents are encouraged to become vendors and sell vegetables and fruit they raise. Food and crafts can also be sold. The process to become a vendor is a simple one. The Farmers Market is currently under the sponsorship of the Dunsmuir Community Resource Center.

Individuals interested in donating to the Market’s EBT Match fund can contact the Resource Center. The Match makes it possible for eligible low-income families, seniors, and other individuals to afford more fresh, local fruit and vegetables and other food.

Dogs are not permitted by state and local laws. Service dogs are allowed. They should be on leash.

The Dunsmuir Community Resource Center encourages everyone to come to the Dunsmuir Farmers Market and enjoy the delicious, locally produced fruit and vegetables and food, to support the Farmers Market, and to support local farmers and growers.
