In the Community: Planting Justice El Sobrante Farmer’s Market Begins April 21st!

In the Community:

Plan to attend our first Planting Justice El Sobrante Farmer’s Market at The Good Table on Sunday, April 21st, 12-4p. Sam Lustig of Planting Justice is the point person for the market, and it promises to be fantastic. We’ll be closing the street down in front of our site and having a lovely collection of food vendors and live music each Sunday afternoon. We will also hold our first ever worship service and Sunday Gathering inside our building at 10:30am. While the building is still under construction, we do have chairs and will think of it a bit like a picnic worship and keep things simple.


Here is a partial list of participating farms:
Soul Flower Farm, Balakian Farm, Oaxaxa Farm, Orosco Farms, J and M Ranch, Santos Organic Farm, Bush Poppy Farm, KM Mushroom Farm

And prepared food vendors will include:
Rize Up Bakery, Rasa Caffe, Asukar Palestinian Kitchen, Hanks NY hotdogs, Popping Popcorn, Piece Out Cakes, Big Grin Small Batch Hot Sauce

Plus various artists and personal care product vendors including:
El Sobrante's own Xina Ash with her fabulous beeswax-based lip balm.

Music for our first market on April 21st will be by Trio Sol de Mexico.
