Top Farmers Markets in SFV

These are my three favorite markets in the Valley:

Types of Farmers’ Markets

Independent (Less Common): Coordinated by a city or neighborhood. They invite vendors to a location on a specific date and time.

Hosted (Very Common): A cooperative of local vendors rotating around different Los Angeles locations. This makes it easy for vendors to service more areas.

  • e.g., California Certified Farmers’ Markets, Raw Inspiration, Coastal Pacific, Supporting Arms, and SFMA.

CSAs and Special Markets: Community-supported agriculture (CSA) farms let you purchase food directly from the farms or food stalls.
