Dear Friends of Sebastopol Farmers Market.  We are overwhelmed with sadness for all the farmers who have lost so much this fire season that started earlier than expected and continues to ravage small farms around the state and in Oregon and Washington.  Although farmers participating in this market were not directly affected by the latest fires, the environmental threats are constant with new and greater challenges every year.  Thank you for your continued support of the market, our local farmers and our local food system.  Fingers crossed we’ll have a break and better air quality this Sunday.

If you haven’t had the chance to try out the market online curbside service, we invite you to explore the online store on the market website at www.sebastopolfarmmarket.org

It’s not too late to plant a garden.. look for cool weather vegetables and herbs to plant for late fall and winter harvest.
