For more than a year now, San Luis Obispo residents have been deprived of their beloved Thursday night farmers' market, which, unlike other smaller outdoor markets, has remained closed for the entirety of the COVID-19 pandemic due to safety concerns. But there's finally light at the end of the tunnel: The market will be back on May 6.

THURSDAY NIGHTS
The Downtown SLO Association recently announced that its Thursday night farmers' market will return on May 6, after a year-long closure due to the pandemic.
The Downtown SLO Association, which operates the Thursday night market, announced the reopening in an April 1 Instagram post. Although the iconic event will look a little different than usual, Downtown SLO Program Director Whitney Chaney said she's excited to have residents and farmers back downtown on Thursdays.
