In the Community: Delicious Line-Up Announced for El Sobrante Farmers Market
In the Community:
We have our list of vendors ready to share for our first Planting Justice El Sobrante Farmers Market this Sunday, April 21, 10am-2pm.This will be the first ever farmers market in El Sobrante, California and one of, if not the only, market in the United States all vended by QTBIPOC, women, immigrant, and/or cooperatively owned businesses. Our market will continue every Sunday from 10am-2pm at 5166 Sobrante Avenue (at Valley View) in the heart of the El Sobrante Triangle district. Local officials coming out to celebrate our opening market include: Contra Costa County Supervisor, John Gioia; Pinole Mayor, Maureen Toms; and our local Richmond City Councilmember, Soheila Bana; plus lots of additional local leaders.
Located directly in front of our upcoming non-profit project, The Good Table (a pay-what-you-can and pay-it-forward café, food and craft marketplace, plant nursery, community space, live music/arts venue, AND farm and garden store). We will also be offering tours every hour of the property so you can see the changes we have made in the former Adachi nursery.
Come indulge in the highest quality fresh seasonal organic produce, baked goods, prepared food and artisanal goods all while you’re treated to the remarkably talented mariachi group Trio Sol De Mexico.
We are also so honored to be partnering with three very important publishers across the country who are printing literature and zines to open up your perspective on the pressing issues we face today (Haymarket Books, Chelsea Green Publishing, and Street Spirit News).
