For 25 years, the Point Reyes Farmers Market has been run by a steering committee of local volunteers. It has developed into a major community hub in the summer, featuring music, a kids’ zone and tantalizing samples from a rotating cast of chefs outside Toby’s Feed Barn, as well as fresh vegetables, eggs, olive oil, fermented foods, jams, artisan bread and more.
But this year, due to a suite of issues including the ramifications of Covid-19, marks a turning point: The market’s management is transferring to the Agricultural Institute of Marin, a nonprofit that runs eight farmers markets in Marin, San Francisco and the East Bay.
