It's Thursday ... Do you know where your Farmers Market is? If you live in Sonoma County, the answer would be Cotati! Every Thursday evening through September 15th, the Cotati Farmer's Market will be held in La Plaza Park from 4:30 to 7:30PM.

Bring the whole family, you'll find some fantastic food vendors and plenty of activities for the young ones. While the kids are in the jumpy house after they get their face painted, check out the fresh local produce, handmade crafts, flowers & plants and specialty foods.

La Plaza Park has an outdoor stage and tonight you can enjoy music by Graystreet Band. Graystreet defines their music as "swinging, jazzy, soulful, eclectic". A little bit of something for everyone!

The music this evening is being sponsored by Cotati Corner Wine Bar, right across the street from the Farmers Market. If you would like to try some super wines, Cotati Corner Wine Bar has wine tasting from 5:00 to 7:30PM. If you don't like wine (which is kind of a sin in Sonoma County), they also have beer on tap from the Eel River Brewery.

Sounds great? Here is where you need to go!

Deborah - I was at this one a couple of weeks ago. My granddaughter got her face painted and I enjoyed a beer while she was in the jumpy house. It's fun to get out and run into folks you haven't seen for awhile.

Maggie - it's nice that ours is right downtown, it's a boon for the businesses nearby. And yes, you can't get produce much fresher than this!

I love that they have them in the evening.  It's so darn hot right now I'd welcome the chance to stroll and shop when it's a little cooler.

Cynthia--first of all, I love the colors of your banner and your choice of text--quite "up my alley"! I wish I had a decent farmers market that wasn't an hour away (in Astoria). When did you leave Oregon? Do you recall Saturday Market?  Well, Astoria's is second ONLY to Saturday Market in size. I just never get there, darn it!

You have that fresh, natural beauty that Oregon encompasses. Thanks for your comment today, and c'mon up and join us here before the sun goes away (don't blink).

Tish - I like the evening markets as well. They roll right into dinner time in the cooler hours.

Gayle - I used to go to the market in Eugene, that is the only one I remember. I left Oregon in 1979 after living there all my life. I headed up to Seattle for about 4 years, then to Los Angeles, then to where I am now. I had to find Fishhawk Lake on the map the other day, I had never heard of it before. I know where it is now. Thank you for the compliments, and I'll be up there someday. Would love to see Melinda drive that pontoon after a lemon drop or two :)
