The Tehachapi Farmers Market is only a few short weeks away, running every Thursday between June 1 to Aug. 15. We are asking for any businesses in the Downtown Tehachapi area that would like to offer "Farmers Market Specials" to let us know so we can put your business on our digital map, listing your special and address.

Each week hundreds of people visit the Farmers Market in Downtown Tehachapi. We want to remind people to shop at local brick and mortar stores, as well. If a business offers a special, we will list the business and special on a digital map with a QR code linking to the map listing local store specials and the vendors participating in the market.

"We tried this as an experiment for the Tehachapi Hometown Christmas event and we saw that our community utilized the map," said Key Budge, Community Engagement manager for the City of Tehachapi. "The Farmers Market digital map will also be available on our social media and website."

The Tehachapi Farmers Market will be held Thursdays, June 1 through Aug. 17, 4 to 7 p.m., on Green Street in Downtown Tehachapi.

Farmers Market local business specials should be sent via email to Jessica Garner, Farmers Market manager at jgarner@TehachapiCityHall.com. http://www.liveuptehachapi.com/454/Farmers-Market/.
