Las Milpitas Mercadito

A Monthly Mercadito (Market) at the Milpitas Community Farm

Join us on October 19th from 5:30 – 8:00 PM for our next Las Milpitas Mercadito. Vendors offer everything from handmade jewelry, hair clips, and ties, to artisanal Oaxacan products and traditional clothing, hand-painted hats, and embroidered napkins, as well as garden products such as vermicompost, organic fertilizer, potting soil, and fruit trees.  Food vendors sell aguas frescas, coffee and more. The vendor list varies from month to month.

The Mercadito is a gardener-run event. Its mission is to offer community members the space and opportunity to start small businesses and create additional sources of income for their households. There is no cost to be a vendor; the organizers’ only request is that vendors try to use sustainable products and maintain the grounds free of trash.

Cash is preferred; some vendors do accept credit cards.
