The Oldtown Farmer's Marketplace is moving from its location in Oldtown Salinas in preparation for a new building to move in along Main Street.   Its current location on Lot 13 at Central Avenue & Main Street will change to Lot 5 behind Rabobank at Monterey & Alisal Streets.  The Farmers Marketplace hours will remain the same: 8am-2pm every Saturday.

Due to the new Taylor Building impending groundbreaking and consequent construction, the parking lot in front of Maya Cinema will no longer be available to host the Oldtown Farmers Marketplace, necessitating the move to Lot 5 in Oldtown.

For information regarding the Oldtown Farmers Marketplace participation, please contact Joe Alliotti at: 831.905.1407
  Visit the new location beginning January 7, 2012 for your fresh produce, fruits, vegetables, food, flowers, plus local arts & crafts every Saturday year-round from 8am to 2pm.
