Certified Farmers’ Markets are permitted to operate under separate provisions of State Law. They have been established to allow farmers to sell whole, uncut produce or shell eggs directly to the public. The County Agricultural Commissioner must certify all produce. Farmer’s Markets are allowed to operate only for limited periods, (for example, for four hours on one day per week in Contra Costa County), at temporary sites. These conditions do not apply at Windmill Farms.
