Richmond Main Street Farmers’ Market
is Back for a 2nd Season
We are thrilled to announce the return of the Richmond Main Street Farmers’ Market in partnership with Pacific Coast Farmers’ Market Association. Over 400 residents, workers, and community members came Downtown on Wednesday, May 8th to fill their shopping bags with the freshest seasonal produce, pick up gourmet treats and lunch items, and enjoy a special live musical performance.
Come Downtown this Wednesday—and every Wednesday through October 30th—to shop at our market…brimming with affordable seasonal fruits and vegetables, fresh-baked goods, delicious lunch options, artisan wares, and other specialty items from local vendors.
For a complete list of vendors, newsletters, and market activities, visit our Farmers’ Market page.
You’re Invited to Enjoy Free
Health & Wellness Every 1st Friday
After four years, the Healthy Village Farm Stand has become one of our signature events during the summer months. This year, we have reached out to our community partners Urban Tilth, Rich City Rides, EasyGo, and Happy Lot Farm & Garden to expand the information sharing and access to more healthy options. Our partners will give demonstrations on important topics that are crucial to improving our knowledge and ability to eat better, exercise more, and reduce our carbon footprint.
Join us in the Community Green Space park every 1st Friday through August to learn about wellness resources available, take home free produce, sample delicious healthy foods prepared by Richmond caterers, enjoy great music, and more!
