TORRANCE, Calif., April 25, 2020- Beginning today, the City of Torrance will be accepting Torrance Certified Farmers’ Market curbside pick-up orders from Torrance residents in the at-risk population. Torrance Cares: Farmers Market Curbside Pick-Up will allow Torrance seniors, those with disabilities and residents with underlying health conditions to pre-order produce directly from the farmer and pick it up at the Wilson Park without having to get out of the car.

Customers will pre-order and pay the Farmer directly in advance.  Customers will drive by for pick-up between 11 a.m. and noon on their designated pick up day. Staff will deliver orders to customers in the comfort of their vehicle, at the Wilson Park roundabout.

At-Risk residents can customize orders or choose from a variety of pre-selected produce boxes. All sales will be final. To view participating Farmers and explore produce options visit www.CityofTorranceCA.com/TCFarmersMarket.​

The Torrance Cares: Farmers Market Curbside Pick-Up is the newest program the City of Torrance has rolled out in their Torrance Cares Campaign.  Other programs rolled out in their effort to slow the spread include Torrance Cares Connections, Torrance Cares 4 Business, Torrance Cares 4 Seniors and Torrance Cares 2-Go.
