Sonoma Garden Park’s beloved Harvest Market is officially reopening for the season on Saturday, April 21, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. The Harvest Market will remain open every Saturday through late summer.

Featuring fresh-grown produce including lettuce, bok choy, radishes, kale, cilantro, salad mix, eggs and olive oil, the Sonoma Garden Park is a favorite grocery source for Sonoma residents. Everything is organically and sustainably grown right on the Garden Park’s 6.1 acres except for the olive oil (which is grown and pressed nearby).

Local gardeners have an additional resource: UC Master Gardeners will be on hand during Harvest Market hours to answer all gardening and horticulture questions regarding pest management, the seasonal planting calendar, and anything else you can think of.

A variety of veggie starts – propagated at the Garden Park’s on-site nursery – also are for sale throughout the season.

Come join us in the Straw Bale Barn, buy some produce, and take a stroll around the beautiful Garden Park as our spring flowers begin to bloom. Then come back on subsequent Saturdays and keep stocking up!
