Directions About the Market
Background
The Modesto Certified Farmers’ Market began in 1979 from humble beginnings, initiated by a farmer, MJC Ag Instructor, and then Mayor Peggy Mensinger to bring fresh produce directly to the community long before the 'Buy Local, Buy Fresh' movement gained popularity.
Practices
The market operates as a grassroots organization, emphasizing support for local farmers and the community while adapting to the evolving needs of consumers.
The Rest
Open seasonally from April to December, with hour changes and specific dates available on their website starting in September.
