Farmer's Market in Bakersfield, or a place to buy good produce?

I've also come across this link:

If you search for Bakersfield, it will list which Farmers' Markets there are in town. :)

Farmer's Market in Bakersfield, or a place to buy good produce?

Thank you for your post. I have been living in Bakersfield for a bit now, and wanted to visit the Farmers Market at the Golden State Mall, too. But I also have heard of how Farmer's Markets sell the same stuff you'd find at the grocery store and not the food from local, sustainable farms. We hope to visit the Farmer's Market held at the Golden State Mall on Saturday, and maybe we'll find the organic fruits and vegetables from Fresno that you mentioned. I will also look into Abundant Harvest Organics.

Hope these links help others that are also looking for local, sustainable produce in the Bakersfield area.
