Mark your calendars for every Thursday afternoon for our new hours of 3 p.m. to 7 p.m., beginning April 5 when the Old Town Newhall Farmer’s Market reopens for Spring.  The Farmer’s Market is located in a parking lot at the corner of San Fernando Road and 6th Street right next door to the Rodger Dunn Golf Shop. 

Customer parking is conveniently located adjacent to the Farmer’s Market.  You can enter the customer parking lot off of Railroad Avenue or San Fernando Road by entering from 5th Street or 6th Street.

Consumers flock to Farmer’s Markets for two main reasons: the wide selection of fresh, affordable produce and specialty food items and the opportunity to gather with friends.

So bring the whole family for a fresh food shopping experience.

The Old Town Newhall Farmer’s Market features fresh produce from several different local farmers.  Depending on the growing season, you will find strawberries, peaches, apples, citrus, cantaloupes and delicious watermelons.  You will also be able to prepare dishes from the assorted vegetables, such as onions, lettuce, tomatoes, corn, squash, potatoes, broccoli and beets, to name a few.  If you are looking for herbs, you will find basil, rosemary, sage and many more.

The Farmer’s Market also has vendors selling other tasty items, such as assortments of nuts, fresh breads, deserts and gourmet tamales.  Grace your home with fresh cut flowers directly from the grower to you. There is always someplace to sit down and enjoy a snack and a cold drink as you take a break from shopping.

Are you a local farmer or do you make your own craft items?  We have room for you at the Farmer’s Market.  If you are interested in getting a booth space at the Farmer’s Market, please contact, Lisa Morgan, Farmer’s Market Manager at 805-415-2994.
