The 19th season of the Whole Foods Hometowne Farmer's Market* opens at 4 p.m. on Thursday, June 9. Bring the whole family to enjoy the first day of this largest farmer's market in the Reno / Tahoe area. Besides fresh fruit and produce, you'll find a fun zone for kids, street and stage performances, involvement by various community groups, and a variety of vendors offering ready-to-eat foods, drinks, services of various kinds, and arts and crafts.

The Market is in a new location this year - Victorian Square Plaza. This is between Victorian Avenue and the Century Theatres, which eliminates the hassle and expense of closing Victorian Avenue every week. Closing time is now 8 p.m. instead of 9 p.m. as in past years.

The Whole Foods Hometowne Farmer's Market runs every Thursday afternoon and evening through August 18 (except August 11 during Hot August Nights). Please do not bring glass containers, alcohol, or pets. #about
