Barry Funkhouser of 101.3 FM Camaradio visits the Camarillo Certified Farmers Market for a behind the scenes look at one of the region’s longest running community events.
Operating every Saturday since 1991, the Camarillo Certified Farmers Market is more than a place to shop for fresh produce. Managed entirely by volunteers through Livingston Memorial Visiting Nurse Association & Hospice, every vendor fee supports grief counseling and bereavement programs serving families throughout Ventura County. From local farmers and artisan bakers to handcrafted stained glass, fresh flowers, specialty mushrooms, seasonal produce, and family owned small businesses, this market brings together the best of Camarillo’s local agriculture and creative community.
Along the way, you’ll discover inspiring stories of resilience after the Mountain Fire, nonprofits creating opportunities for adults with special needs, locally grown produce you won’t find in grocery stores, and the people who make shopping local such an important part of life in Ventura County.
Whether you’re searching for fresh fruits and vegetables, handcrafted gifts, baked goods, flowers, or simply looking for one of the best farmers markets in Southern California, the Camarillo Certified Farmers Market offers a true taste of the community every Saturday morning.
A huge thank you to the volunteers, farmers, artisans, and local businesses who continue making this market one of Ventura County’s most treasured weekly traditions.
