Taylor Doo
Taylor is a Turlock native whose family has been an active part of the community for nearly a century of local heritage. An experienced agriculture educator at Modesto Junior College with a Master’s in Agricultural Education from Cal Poly, SLO, she brings a "Learn by Dooing" philosophy to the board. She is a vested supporter of the market; she and her children walk three miles round-trip every Saturday to enjoy the local artisan treasures and seasonal bounty. With a passion for "feeding the seed" of knowledge, Taylor advocates for a vibrant marketplace that connects our community to seasonal goods and strengthens the bond between local producers and the families they serve.

He has been a supporter of the market from the first season of the market. His students have also played an important role in the market, often conducting research and surveys at the market to gain insights on customer behavior and vendor feedback.
Forrest White
Forrest has been a faithful market supporter since the very first season. He has been dedicated to the community for over 30 years and served as a Council Member of the Turlock City Council. Professionally, Forrest retired as C.E.O. of the San Joaquin County Fair where he worked for 25 years.
