The East Palo Alto Community Farmers Market operates from 12:00-3:00 PM every Wednesday at the Ravenswood Family Health Center (1798-A Bay Road, East Palo Alto). We feature local, organic and sustainable fruits and vegetables from Salinas and Hollister. The 2013 market season will run until December 18, 2013. We accept cash, EBT, FMNP WIC checks, FMNP senior checks and EPA Fresh Checks.  If you’d like to receive a weekly email or text reminder about the Farmers Market, contact Nicole Wires at nicole@collectiveroots.org.

This season we are excited to partner with The Agriculture and Land-Based Training Association (ALBA), a farmer incubator in Salinas, CA. The Agriculture and Land-Based Training Association (ALBA) provides educational and business opportunities for farm workers and aspiring farmers to grow and sell crops grown on two organic farms in Monterey County, California. Their mission is to advance economic viability, social equity and ecological land management among limited-resource and aspiring farmers.
