Farmers Markets near Modesto, CA

Modesto

Modesto

The Modesto Certified Farmers' Market has been servicing Stanislaus County with fresh produce and locally made goods for over 45 years. We pride ourselves ingiving back to our community by offering free community outreach, kids activites, special holiday events and more throughout the year.

Ceres

Ceres Farmers' Market sets up at Ceres-Whitmore Park, on 3rd and North streets in this Stanislaus County city. Vendors bring vegetables, fruit, local specialty foods, and crafts. Some listings put the season at June and July on Tuesday evenings, though that schedule may have changed, call ahead to confirm before visiting.

Riverbank

Riverbank, in Stanislaus County, hosts an annual Cheese and Wine Festival every October that draws visitors from across the Central Valley. This certified market runs on Santa Fe Street in the small town, a direct-sale stop for growers from the surrounding dairy and produce farms.

Ripon

Ripon calls itself the Almond Capital of the World, its economy built largely on almond production in the San Joaquin Valley. This certified market runs at Mavis Stouffer Park on Stouffer Street in town, drawing growers from the almond orchards and row-crop farms that surround it.

Oakdale

Oakdale Morning Market, as it's officially named, is a newer addition to downtown — Saturdays, 8 to 11am, May through September, on North 3rd Avenue. It launched to give local growers and small businesses a direct line to Oakdale shoppers, rotating vendors and artisans weekly rather than running a fixed lineup. It's seasonal and summer-only, so it disappears once fall hits.

Turlock

Saturdays, 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., March through mid-December — a nonprofit market in Turlock run entirely by a volunteer board of directors. Vendors set up along the market's downtown route, a long season by Central Valley market standards, stretching well past the typical spring-to-fall run most markets keep.

Patterson

Sunblest Valley Farmers' Markets runs seasonally, spring through fall, in a parking lot on West Las Palmas Avenue in Patterson, with ties to the Sunblest Orchards operation nearby. Vendors sell produce and local goods, and the market accepts SNAP/EBT for shoppers using food assistance benefits.

Manteca

Gustine

Run by the Gustine Recreation Department at Henry Miller Park, 3rd Avenue and 6th Street, in this small San Joaquin Valley farm town named for 19th-century cattle rancher Henry Miller. Offers local produce and handcrafted goods; check the city's Parks and Recreation department for the current seasonal schedule, since listed hours vary by source.

Stockton

Stockton's downtown farmers market sets up on East Washington Street, in San Joaquin County — one of the most productive stretches of California's Central Valley farm belt.

Stockton

Stockton

The International Food Hub at 110 N. El Dorado Street is a culinary incubator, not a produce market — it seats walk-ins for lunch weekdays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., with rotating stalls run by Stockton entrepreneurs cooking Soul Food, Haitian, vegan Mexican, and Puerto Rican dishes. Stockton Community Kitchen, the nonprofit behind it, uses the hub to help home cooks turn recipes into food businesses.
