About CFFMA - River Park Farmers Market - Saturday
CFFMA - River Park Farmers Market - Saturday operates in Fresno, California as a dedicated space for small farms and local food businesses to sell directly to the public — no middlemen, just fresh goods.
CFFMA - River Park Farmers Market - Saturday is part of a national network of farmers markets that have grown substantially over the past two decades.
