        &lt;p style="line-height: 17px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Since taking it on, they have added live music and more prepared food vendors to the mix.&amp;nbsp; Chamber Members also have an opportunity to utilize a reserve booth space by applying &lt;a href="https://forms.gle/QQmKf5sBnSnBXKFWA" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

        &lt;p style="line-height: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu"&gt;Regional Farmers’ Market Association are experienced operators, with a team of combined experience of 41 years, Greg Pursley, Jorge Vega, and Paolo Obillo.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

        &lt;p style="line-height: 17px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Since taking it on, they have added live music and more prepared food vendors to the mix.&amp;nbsp; Chamber Members also have an opportunity to utilize a reserve booth space by applying &lt;a href="https://forms.gle/QQmKf5sBnSnBXKFWA" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

        &lt;p style="line-height: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu"&gt;Regional Farmers’ Market Association are experienced operators, with a team of combined experience of 41 years, Greg Pursley, Jorge Vega, and Paolo Obillo.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

        &lt;p style="line-height: 17px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Since taking it on, they have added live music and more prepared food vendors to the mix.&amp;nbsp; Chamber Members also have an opportunity to utilize a reserve booth space by applying &lt;a href="https://forms.gle/QQmKf5sBnSnBXKFWA" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The Market is a Certified Market, which means it has been Certified by the State of California Department of Agriculture. &amp;nbsp;The market was established for the benefit of both producers (certified growers) and consumers.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

        &lt;p style="line-height: 17px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Upon Jean's passing in January 2025, the Chamber sought a new operator.&amp;nbsp; We were pleased to find &lt;a href="https://www.regfarmar.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Regional Farmers' Market Association&lt;/a&gt;, and by May 15, 2025, their management of the Farmers' Market&amp;nbsp; began.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

        &lt;p style="line-height: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu"&gt;Regional Farmers’ Market Association are experienced operators, with a team of combined experience of 41 years, Greg Pursley, Jorge Vega, and Paolo Obillo.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

        &lt;p style="line-height: 17px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Ubuntu" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Since taking it on, they have added live music and more prepared food vendors to the mix.&amp;nbsp; Chamber Members also have an opportunity to utilize a reserve booth space by applying &lt;a href="https://forms.gle/QQmKf5sBnSnBXKFWA" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
