Cañada College Farmers Market

Warning to those who may have purchased the dried cranberries and raisins on November 18, 2012 that they may be tainted with salmonella. My mother, wife, and 21 month old son ate some this past Sunday and have been suffering severe nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. My daughter and I did not have any, and we are fine.

I am so excited that Canada College finally has a farmer’s market! No more schlepping across town to the College of San Mateo’s farmer’s market; now I can just walk out my front door (as I live in the faculty housing on campus) and fresh and yummy food awaits! It’s located at the top of the hill at the overlook where there are incredible views of San Francisco, Oakland, and Palo Alto. It will be held every Sunday from 9 – 1. It’s relatively small right now, but with local support, I’m sure it will expand. We got really delicious veggies and fruits there today, and were especially impressed with the Hummus Heaven stand where we got dolmas (the best my husband has ever tasted) and really flavorful artichoke hummus. We tried a bunch of the hummus, and all were extremely tasty. So come support the new farmer’s market in its beautiful location on Canada College campus!
