| Celebrating 10 Years of Mission Community Market |
Join us in celebrating the 10th anniversary of Mission Community Marketā and National Farmers Market Week on Thursday, August 8, 3 to 7 pm.
San Franciscoās Mission Community Market has meant many things over the years: a farmers market with access to fresh, healthy food, a bustling gathering place for families, a showcase for emerging businesses and artists.
This year, the beloved market, also known as Mission Mercado, celebrates 10 years of bringing Mission neighbors together through local food, the arts, and community.
āI look at it as being catalyst project,ā says Ilaria Salvadori, who planted the first seed for the farmers market a decade ago. āItās a project that has value in itself, but there is a larger value for the community because itās able to bring further change.ā |
