Two very exciting developments this week in Ross and San Anselmo!

The Ross Town Council voted unanimously on May 14, 2015 to bring our Organic Farm Stand to The Commons every Thursday 12:00 PM - 7:30 PM. Our new location in Ross is now opposite the Post Office, on The Commons, at the lawn in the shaded area adjacent to the angle parking. We will have our usual seasonal farm stand of fruit, vegetables, greens, and in addition we will also include local, all natural grass-fed beef, lamb, pork and wild line-caught seafood. Our first Ross Organic Farm Stand is on Thursday, May 28, 2015.

We have also been approved by the San Anselmo Town Council at their May 12, 2014 meeting to bring in local all natural grass-fed beef, lamb, pork and wild line-caught seafood to our San Anselmo Organic Farm Stand. We will be open every Friday beginning Friday May 22, 2015 11:00 AM – 7:30 PM. We will be on the lawn in front of San Anselmo Town Hall 575 San Anselmo Avenue, our usual market spot. Looking forward to seeing everyone once again in San Anselmo.

Both San Anselmo and Ross will run as seasonal markets beginning next week and run through late October.

As a reminder, our permanent marketplace THE FARM STAND in Forest Knolls is now open year-round every Friday, Saturday, Sunday 11:00 AM – 7:30 PM Rain Or Shine.

Many thanks to everyone who supported us in our crusade to bring in the very best seasonal, local, and organic food.

Jim

Good news! We are getting ready for the San Anselmo Organic Farm Stand 2015 season. We will be returning to the lawn in front of Town Hall, 525 San Anselmo Avenue every Friday, 11 AM - 7:30 PM starting Friday, May 22nd and run through late October.

As you may know, we now carry many new organic foods at our Forest Knolls location. We plan to bring the finest natural grass-fed beef, pork, lamb, and wild, line-caught seafood to the San Anselmo Organic Farm Stand. I have requested the San Anselmo Town Council to amend our existing contract and allow these additional local organic products to be sold. This matter is on the agenda for the next Town Council meeting this Tuesday, May 12, 2015.

I am asking for your support on amending our existing contract. You can post or comment on this at our blog site or Facebook page. 

Many thanks to everyone for visiting and shopping at our newest year-round location and headquarters, THE FARM STAND in Forest Knolls, 6700 Sir Francis Drake Blvd. which we opened this past year.  

Our next announcement will include available produce and products for opening day.
