Fresh from the Farm
And Just Down the Road

Eating well and doing so with fresh, often organic seasonal fare is getting easier with the addition of three new farmers' markets, bringing Marin County's total to 14.

Among the recently opened markets: the Friday (3-7 p.m.) and Saturday (10 a.m.-2 p.m.) Farm Stand in Marin City, shown above, as farm stand manager Yaqinah Abdurahman serves a young customer. Launched initially late last summer, the Farm Stand is sponsored by the Environmental Education Council of Marin.

Also new this summer: A market sponsored by the Tamalpais Community Services District, Tuesdays, 3:30 to 7:30 p.m., Peace Lutheran Church on Tennessee Valley Road, and one in downtown Ross, Thursdays, 4 to 8 p.m.
