Growers’ Market Site Gets Resurfaced!

Tuesday, February 21, 2012

Get ready for the Corrales Grower’s Market EXTREME MAKEOVER! Well maybe not extreme, but certainly worth a little fanfare. Take a look at our before and after pictures and you’ll see why. You’re invited to visit the Market for our winter market March 3rd, 11AM-1PM for a preview of our new site surfacing.

The Market wants to thank all of our partners who helped make this happen: The Village of Corrales Public Works Department, especially Tony and his crew and the support of Lynn, our Recreation Department Director. Special thanks to Sandoval County Commissioner Donnie Leonard for the use of the compacting equipment to finish off the job.

Thanks also goes to WAYCOR for the delivery of upgraded ADA approved tan crusher fine. It was a lot of trucks and tons of material and it gives the marketing area improved access and a whole new look.

Last but certainly not least, thanks to all our vendors who supported an additional fee for the 2011 season and made the funds available to purchase the improved materials, and our customers who supported the Apple Tree Café and the Market Shop fundraising efforts throughout the 2011 season.

Check out more pictures here.

We’re ready for a great 2012 season…see you at the Market!

Corrales Fire Department Visit

Wednesday, September 14, 2011
This week at the Corrales Grower’s Market we were honored to have the Corrales Fire Department staff and volunteers join us for our annual Corrales Fire Department fund raiser. Activities included the unveiling of the Departments new river rescue equipment donated by the Corrales Grower’s Market to the Department. The Kayak  is the latest addition to the departments development of river rescue resources to assist in local and regional rescue efforts. Also at the market was the water pump made available to the department through SCAFCA. This pump allows for the use of water even from resources that would clog other pumps. The Department also collected food donations through the ongoing Seed2Need pantry project. 500 pounds of fresh produce was collected and later distributed by the Fire Department personnel through out the community. Thanks to everyone who joined us to let our first responders know how much we all appreciate there dedication, not only as we remember this day in our history, but every day.
