SATURDAY EXCURSION
Riverside Downtown
Farmers Market
continues to thrive
The City of Riverside’s
Downtown Farmers Market
continues to thrive in its
second year, with new seasonal
fruit and vegetables now available.
Shoppers can purchase sweet
raspberries, succulent peaches, delicious
strawberries and scrumptious
avocados.
The Downtown Farmers Market is
located on the Main Street Pedestrian
Mall between University and Mission
Inn Avenues and is open every
Saturday from 8am to 1pm.
The market continues to serve the
City of Riverside residents and visitors.
It is a place where farmers can sell
their crops directly to the consumer.
It offers organic fruits and vegetables,
flowers, aged Gouda cheese by
Winchester Cheese Co., fresh baked
breads from Old Town Baking Co., a
variety of fish from Smart Fish Co.,
and more.
“Shoppers at the Downtown
Farmers Market will see more farm
products, fresh fruit and locally-raised
organic produce,” Market Manager
Oscar de Leon said. “We are thrilled
to see the growing participation by
local and regional farmers in our market
and very proud of the large number
of family-owned farms selling their
farm-fresh products at this market. I
encourage the community to visit the
market every Saturday.”

Downtown Riverside is an oasis of
authenticity. It’s a real place, with real
history, real culture, real cuisine,
and real discoveries. Stroll,
shop, dine, and be pampered.
Riverside is the urban getaway
right next door.
“We have people come from all
over to shop downtown Riverside.
One of-a-kind stores offer unique
merchandise such as “fresh produce”
clothes. But the true draw is the
personal touch of real people.
