These activities are fun for the whole family and will last all weekend long.

Sprouts Farmers Market is invested in serving the communities where it operates. It works with local California farmers such as Blossom Hill Packing and Lucich Santos Farms, California Avocados, Country Sweet Produce and the Bako Sweet, Family Tree Farms and more to source local produce.
