SANTA BARBARA, Calif. – The farmers market in downtown Santa Barbara may have a new home soon due to an upcoming vote on Tuesday.

The permanent location of the farmers market will begin Sept. 7 on State St. between Canon Perdido and Figueroa St. as well as Chapala and Anacapa St.

The SBCC will hold a vote for the following changes on Tuesday as vendors gave their respective thoughts on the relocation decision on Saturday.
