Modesto Certified Farmers Market is the place where the locals go for their fresh products, unique artisan goods, and delicious food. One convenient downtown location where you can support local farmers and in exchange for healthy, nutritious fruits and vegetables.
The Modesto Certified Farmers Market of Modesto, California began from a humble beginning in 1979. A farmer and then-Mayor Peggy Mensinger brought freshly produced that were purchased directly to the community long before “But Fresh, Buy Local” became a well-known phrase and 40 years later, they are still on the same purpose; which is to bring the farmer and consumer help together, cutting out the middle and allows the freshest possible goods to go from farm to table.
MCFM boasts itself on their giving back to the community practices. Every month they host family activities such as kid’s crafts, raffles, special holidays, and plenty of giveaway events at the markets. The activities they host are completely free to join because they believe that the farmer’s market is for everyone.
