Farmers Markets near Murrieta, CA

Murrieta

Murrieta Farmers' Market operates at Village Walk Plaza in Murrieta, a fast-growing Riverside County city in the Temecula Valley wine and agriculture corridor. It's a suburban market serving Southwest Riverside County's newer residential communities.

Temecula

Promenade Certified Farmers' Market sets up on Winchester Road at the Promenade Temecula shopping mall, in a Riverside County city better known for the wineries of Temecula Valley a few miles south. Vendor list, market day, and hours aren't confirmed online.

Canyon Lake

Canyon Lake Certified Farmers' Market has run every Sunday for more than 17 years at Canyon Lake Towne Center, 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., rain or shine. It's a certified market, meaning the growers selling produce actually grew it themselves rather than reselling from a wholesaler. Vendors also bring fresh groceries, prepared goods, and specialty items like mushrooms.

Fallbrook

A farm listing in Fallbrook, California, in San Diego County's avocado and citrus growing region. No verified details on this specific farm's crops, hours, or sales format turned up in current research.

The Bonsall Certified Farmer's Market and Open Air Fair sets up every Sunday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Bonsall Elementary School. The Bonsall Education Foundation runs it as a fundraiser for the Bonsall Union School District, so vendor fees circle back to local classrooms. Stalls carry fresh vegetables, fruit, seafood, meat, nuts, honey, cheese, cut flowers, herbs, plants, and soap, alongside baked goods, prepared foods, and handmade crafts.

Escondido

A certified farmers market at the Lawrence Welk Resort in Escondido, in the North County San Diego citrus and wine-grape region.

San Jacinto

San Jacinto Valley Certified Farmers' Market sets up at The Farmers' Corner on San Jacinto Ave, open Thursdays and Sundays year-round, with Sunday hours running 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. in spring and summer. Every stand is a small family farm, crafter, or food vendor selling their own goods — nothing resold. The market runs a CalFresh/EBT information booth, a detail that says more about who they're serving than any tagline would.

Oceanside

Branded the Sunset Market, this one runs Thursdays, 5 to 9pm, year-round, spanning five blocks of downtown Oceanside near the pier at Coast Highway and Pier View Way. It's been running since 2007 and has grown into one of the larger evening markets in San Diego County — up to 240 food and retail booths, live entertainment, and a dedicated kids' zone. Free parking is available at the Civic Center structure a few blocks over.

San Clemente

Sunday mornings, 9am to 1pm, year-round, rain or shine — this certified market spreads across several blocks of Avenida Del Mar between Ola Vista and Calle Seville. It's agriculture-and-food only; craft vendors aren't permitted, which keeps the stalls focused on produce, fresh fish, bread, tamales, and flowers. It's one of the more consistently reviewed certified markets in South Orange County.

Carlsbad Village Farmers' Market runs twice a week year-round, Wednesdays 1 to 5 p.m. and Saturdays 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., in the public lot on Roosevelt Street. It's a full-spectrum certified market: produce, cheese, meat, seafood, cut flowers, jam, honey, and prepared foods, plus soap and crafts from local makers. WIC and card payments are accepted.

Carlsbad

Downtown Carlsbad closes off State Street every Wednesday for this market, run by the Carlsbad Village Association out of its office a block away at 2695 State Street. It's a walkable, village-scale market between Carlsbad Village Drive and Grand Avenue, the kind you can hit on a lunch break or a stroll from the beach.

San Juan Capistrano

Located at Yorba Street and Camino Capistrano, between Camino Capistrano and El Camino Real, this certified market runs seasonally from spring through fall. Vendors sell the standard certified-market lineup — organic produce, baked goods, cheese, eggs, seafood, and cut flowers — with credit cards accepted at most stalls. Weekly hours vary enough by source that it's worth calling ahead before a special trip.

Riverside

Sunday market in the parking lot near Barnes & Noble at the Galleria at Tyler mall in Riverside, roughly 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., run by Coastal Pacific Markets. Certified growers sell fruit, vegetables, and prepared foods alongside local crafts, with mall parking making it an easier stop than a squeezed-in downtown market.

Riverside

This certified market runs Fridays, 10am to 2pm, year-round, on the grounds of Kaiser Permanente's Riverside Medical Center at 10800 Magnolia Avenue. Local growers and vendors sell fresh, seasonal produce to hospital patients, staff, and nearby Riverside neighborhoods every week without a seasonal break.

Riverside

Riverside is where California's navel orange industry began. Eliza Tibbets planted budded trees from Brazil here in the 1870s, and the Parent Navel Orange Tree still stands behind a fence near a major downtown intersection. This certified market runs on Arlington Avenue, a stop for growers from the Inland Empire's remaining citrus and produce farms.

Corona

Corona's certified market sets up on North Main Street, inside the city's historic Grand Boulevard traffic circle — the same 3-mile loop that hosted international auto races in 1913, 1914, and 1916. Corona was once known as the Lemon Capital of the World, and Riverside County's citrus history still shapes the area.

Laguna Hills

A year-round certified market held every Friday, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., in the Laguna Hills Mall parking lot near Macy's, across from Saddleback Memorial. Vendors sell California-grown fruit, vegetables, and artisanal goods to south Orange County shoppers.

Irvine

The Orange County Great Park Farmers Market takes place at Irvine's Great Park, part of the city's nationally ranked parks system. Shoppers browse certified local growers and food vendors in one of Orange County's signature public spaces.
