Market updates & news for the coming week!  

Market Location: 304 N. Cypress St, Orange 92866
Hello Neighbor!
Market Vendors - Farmers

Featured Farmer

De Luz Farms
De Luz is new to the Market, bringing with them fresh picked blueberries from their farm in Temecula.  These berries are grown using no pesticides and are never sprayed.  Blueberries have a multitude of health benefits, they are low in fat, and are full of dietary fiber, phytonutrients (antioxidants & anti-inflammatory) and vitamin C, as well as being an excellent source of manganese (bone development).  Grab a pack (or two) this weekend and enjoy!

Market Vendors - Artisans

Featured Artisan

Laguna Hills Nursery
It's a perfect time to start planting and growing, and there's no better source than Laguna Hills Nursery for your plants, herbs, trees (ornamental, fruit, etc), roses, and hedges.  They also have top grade potting soils and planting mixes.  Their varieties are about as close to a guaranteed green thumb success as you could ask for, plus they are a wealth of knowledge for any questions you may have.
