Sonora Certified Farmers’ Market Returns This Weekend
Sonora, CA – A Saturday morning staple, the 2023 Sonora Certified Farmers’ Market, returns this weekend, other markets around the Mother Lode have already begun or will be starting soon.
The market, brimming with fresh fruits, vegetables, flowers, and other yummy treats, crafts, and music, is back in business tomorrow. It is open from 7:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., running through mid-October, at the Theall Street Parking Lot between Stewart Street and Shepherd Street in downtown Sonora.
That lot will close at 3:30 a.m. for vendor set-up, and “no parking” signs will go up every week in advance to remind motorists.
“We ask you to plan ahead and park in alternate locations on the evening prior,” shared market organizers, adding, “As a courtesy, we will attempt to locate a phone number for the vehicle owner to move the vehicle, but please understand that we must tow vehicles left beyond 3:30 a.m.”
