It's no secret that the COVID-19 pandemic has put many businesses out of business. One 'growing' concern, however, that's managed to weather the storm is the Montclair Village Farmers' Market. The backbone of its survival has been due primarily to the diligent Northern California farmers who provide the organic fresh fruits and vegetables sold at the weekly event, but it hasn't been easy. Held each Sunday since 2005, the farmers' market takes place on a block of La Salle Avenue that's closed to car traffic between Mountain and Moraga avenues in the heart of Oakland's Montclair district.
