Gilroy Farmers' Market Opening Day Saturday May 10th!

The new Downtown Gilroy Certified Farmers’ Market opens on Saturday,

May 10th, 9:00am to 1:00pm at Gilroy City Hall Parking Lot at 7351 Rosanna

Street & 7th Street. The new Farmers’ Market is hosted by California Farmers’

Markets Association (CFMA) and sponsored by the Gilroy Demonstration Garden, a
local non-profit, whose mission is to enrich the lives of the local community through
environmentally sustainable gardening and education programs.

Opening day includes loads of farm fresh cut flower bouquets
perfect for Mother’s Day. This new certified farmers’ market introduces many
organic growers and food purveyors from the local area. The market will feature

long-standing neighborhood favorites. Supporting local family farmers with

viable outlets for their crops has been a priority for CFMA says Doug Hayden,
President of California Farmers’ Markets Association, “we are happy to be

opening a market in Gilroy in May after a long winter with over 30 farmers with
the freshest spring and summer crops, gourmet food purveyors with delicious,

unique dishes and artisans with handcrafted items.”
