PISMO BEACH, Calif. - The Pismo Beach Farmers Market made its return Wednesday at the Pismo Beach Promenade.
The farmers market, organized by the Pismo Beach Chamber of Commerce, was originally planned to open last year. It was a bit challenging I would say for Daryl, said Valerie Mercado, the Chairwoman of the Chamber of Commerce, referencing Daryl Buck.
Daryl volunteered his time to plan, organize, and manage the opening of the market.

PISMO BEACH, Calif. - The Pismo Beach Farmers Market is making a long-awaited return to the brand new Pismo Beach Promenade starting Wednesday.
City Manager Jim Lewis encouraged the Pismo Chamber to relaunch the farmers market saying the promenade would be the perfect location.
The Chamber originally planned to launch the market in 2020, but plans were postponed due to the pandemic.
After creating COVID-safe plans with the City of Pismo and ensuring the market will fulfill all fire and safety codes, farmers will finally be able to offer their fresh fruits and vegetables to the community. I am so excited that the Pismo Chamber, despite being a group of volunteers, we continue to make big things happen. I always say we are small but mighty. We hope the locals come to enjoy the return of the Pismo Farmers Market. It will be great! said Chairwoman Valerie Mercado.
