FEATURED FARMER's MARKETS
The Oak Park Farmers' Market
Sacramento, caThe Oak Park Farmers' Market offers high quality, locally grown produce in the friendly, historic Village of Oak Park. The market is a step back into simpler times . . . buying things from the farmers who grow them, surrounded by the sounds of live bluegrass music, the smell of fresh, homemade donuts and an incredible variety of nature's bounty.
The market is held in the Pilgrim Church Parking lot at 460 Lake St., just one block west of Ridgeland Avenue. Market hours are 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. every Saturday from opening day through October. |
The Galt marketGALT, CAFresh fruit, vegetables, nuts and seafood are displayed along ‘produce row’ – an aisle 100 yards long with spaces on both sides of the aisle overflowing with offerings from both local and distant farms. Also on Wednesdays are aisles flanked almost-antiques and collectables from estate sales, storage sheds, garages and grandma’s attic to give the sharp-eyed collector a rich hunting ground for treasures, near-treasures and that rare and unusual item you need to fill that empty spot on the family room wall.
