The Palm Springs Certified Farmers’ Market joins farmers’ markets across the country in celebrating National Farmers’ Market Week 2022. At their most recent meeting the Palm Springs City Council issued a proclamation in appreciation of the City’s farmers’ market at their last meeting, declaring August 7-13 as Palm Springs Certified Farmers’ Market Week!
National Farmers Market Week is an annual celebration of farmers markets coordinated by the Farmers Market Coalition, a membership-based nonprofit organization that supports farmers markets nationwide through training, technical assistance, and network-building. This year, the campaign is centered around the essential role that farmers market operators play in our local food systems and in developing resilience in communities as hubs for local economies and connection.

Great news! Traffic speeds are being reduced in and around Sunrise Park.
Great news! Traffic speeds are being reduced in and around Sunrise Park.
Neighbors in Sunrise Park and other neighborhoods in Palm Springs have expressed concerns about traffic speeds in and around our neighborhood. In an effort to reduce the number of traffic collisions and fatalities in the city, thirty-six segments of local streets are set to have reduced speed limits. Most of the street segments will have speed limits lowered by 5 mph, while a few street segments will be reduced by 10 or 15 mph.
The roads in and around Sunrise Park with speed limits reductions are:
- Alejo Road from Sunrise Way to Farrell Drive (45 mph to 40 mph)
- Amado Road from Sunrise Way to Farrell Drive (40 mph to 35 mph)
- Baristo Road from Sunrise Way to Farrell Drive (40 mph to 35 mph)
- Baristo Road from Farrell Drive to El Cielo Road (40 mph to 35 mph)
- Farrell Drive from Alejo Road to Ramon Road (45 mph to 40 mph)
These changes were made possible with the passage of a bill last year that gives California cities more flexibility to target speeding in unsafe areas.
