đź’šWILLITS farmers market Thursday 7/9
Now it's time for some real food -- local, fresh, nutritious, produced by your neighbors. We're in Bud Snider Park all along State Street every Thursday, 3 to 5:30 PM, featuring local produce, local meat and eggs, prepared foods, from snacks to dinner dishes to balsamic vinegar, and music too. We honor SNAP cards and WIC cards and have extra benefits for qualifying shoppers. We also exchange a swipe of your credit or debit card for Market Bucks, good with any vendor for the cash-strapped.

Richard & Mary will be bringing freshly cut microgreens and whole plant foods to the market.
Joanne brings mint, rosemary, broccoli, onions, flowers, garlic, free veggie starts, raspberries, cactus and fruit leather from her Laytonville garden.
