Farmers Market News
We hope everyone had a safe and happy Memorial Day 🇺🇸
.
We want to touch base regarding our events, music, chef demos, etc, as we’ve received a several calls/messages asking about them. At this time, all crafts, events, and chef demos at market are cancelled until further notice. Field trips to the market have also been cancelled for the year. As for music, we have not yet heard when/if we can resume having live musicians at the market. We have to hear updates & get approval from several channels (both State & local) before we can make any changes.
.
As soon as we know anything, we will be sure to let everyone know!
.
See you Thursday & Saturday, 8am to 1pm.

Hi everyone.
.
We want to remind everyone again as the weather warms and some other businesses reopen, that we are still operating as essential shopping only and are NOT running business as usual. This means that you should also not be shopping the market as usual.
.
Please do NOT use the market as a social gathering place or family outing. Send as few people as possible to get your essentials, then depart the market as quickly as you can. This allows everyone to better maintain their social distancing, prevent crowding, and allows others to get in and do their shopping as well. Also, please do not consume what you buy at the market.
.
While we wish we could be the family-friendly, fun, social atmosphere we usually are, we CANNOT be that right now for everyone’s safety. We need everyone to be in this together.
.
To reiterate, please do not meet up with friends/family. Please do not gather in groups within the market. Please do not eat your purchases on site. Please buy what you need and depart.
.
Please, please, please help us keep the market, our customers, our staff, & our vendors, and everyone safe.
.
We never ask people to share our posts, but if you can, please share this to spread the word & remind people that is is still so important. We would be so grateful for the help. Thank you.

We will be here until 1pm, so be sure to stop by & grab some good stuff for Mom!

We hope everyone had a good weekend. We wanted to thank everybody who stopped by last week.
.
We did want to throw out an important reminder. Please remember the market is still under COVID restriction and is for essential shopping only. It is not a standard business-as-usual time for farmers markets (or any essential shopping place for that matter.)
.
Please do not use the market as a place to meet friends & family for a social outing. Please send the minimum amount of people necessary to buy your required goods & depart the market as quickly as possible, so that others may come in to do the same.
.
When you stop & form a group in the middle of the market to talk, it makes it hard for others to get around you & maintain social distancing. It also prevents other from being allowed to come in & do their shopping, as we do have a max occupancy allowed on the street at a time.
.
If you are visiting for the first time this season or need a refresher on the rest of the rules, regulations, & restrictions still in place at MCFM due to COVID, please visit our website modestocfm.com to take a look at the list.
.
And as always, the list of vendors for Thursday market will be in our Instagram & Facebook Stories (not our main feed) on Wednesday afternoon/evening, and the Saturday vendor list will be in our Instagram & Facebook Stories on Friday afternoon/evening.
.
See you at market Thursday, from 8am to 1pm!

Good morning Modesto!
.
We had 5 additional vendors return to market today:
1) Rocha Bros Berries is back with strawberries. 🍓
2) DePalma Farms is here with cherries, nuts, & olives.🍒
3) Nyia Yi Farms has your Asian veggies.🥬
4) Tyson Hill Farm has early fruit, veggies, & some edible flowers💐
5) Jammin Jams is here with pickled & jammed products.🥒
.
Because of the influx of vendors, many of the existing vendors may have moved spaces. If you need help finding a vendor (new or existing) just stop by the Info/EBT booth (orange tent as you enter the driveway) & we will be happy to direct you to them.
.
Please remember that COVID restrictions are still in place. Some of these restrictions/regulations are: Maintain your 6ft social distancing. Don’t touch any product (vendors will get it and bag it for you.) Please buy your items and depart the market as quickly as possible. Do not use the market as a family or social gathering event.
.
For the rest of the COVID rules/regulations/restrictions, please visit our website (link in bio.)
May 2
