Albany Farmers Market

The first one is today, 3-7 pm, at the very bottom of Solano.

    A juggler, 2.50 avocados, no raspberries, did get some sweet strawberries. The cherries were tempting, but too expensive.

    It's run by the ecology center. Supposed to go through October.

      thanks for the note. passed by today, about a dozen or so vendors. some familiar names: Blue heron farms, happy boy farms, phoenix Pastificio, scream sorbet.

      a new bakery, starter, was selling some interesting items - more on the pastry side than the bread side.

      a number of other farms were there...including one selling the first stock of cherries!

      located on the corner of san pablo and solano.
