Farmers Markets in San Francisco, CA

San Francisco

Alemany opened in 1943 as California's first farmers market and still runs every Saturday, 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., at 100 Alemany Boulevard in Bernal Heights. Locals call it "the People's Market" for its low stall fees and mix of home cooks and restaurant buyers. Since 2026 the nonprofit Foodwise has operated the market with the City of San Francisco, working with dozens of small family farms on seasonal produce. Free parking on site, and CalFresh and WIC are accepted.

San Francisco State's Associated Students runs a campus farmers market every Thursday, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., stocked with fresh and organic produce aimed at students trying to eat well on a budget.

Fort Mason Center's farmers market runs Sundays in the parking lot at 2 Marina Boulevard, overlooking the bay in San Francisco's Marina district, typically from about 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. It's operated by the California Farmers' Markets Association, a certified-market nonprofit whose vendors must sell only what they grow themselves, with produce, flowers, and other seasonal goods each week.

Mission Food Hub formed in May 2020 to get culturally appropriate groceries to San Francisco's Latino families, and it still runs a grocery distribution every Friday at 701 Alabama Street. Volunteers add extra distributions around Thanksgiving and Christmas. The hub grew out of Mission District mutual aid during the pandemic and has stayed focused on food equity in the neighborhood since.

Farm stands line 24th Street between Sanchez and Vicksburg every Saturday, 8am to 1pm, in the middle of Noe Valley's commercial strip. It's a certified California market — every vendor grows what they sell, no resellers. Expect seasonal produce and cut flowers from a rotating cast of Bay Area farms, rather than the packaged-food sprawl some city markets lean into. Vendors and prospective farmers can reach the market office directly by phone or email.

Clement Street closes to traffic every Sunday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. for this Richmond District market, rain or shine, year-round. Alongside the produce stands are several Bay Area creameries — Achadinha Cheese Company, Stepladder Creamery, Nicasio Valley Cheese, and Tomales Farmstead Creamery — plus bakers and flower vendors. It's one of the few San Francisco markets that stays open straight through the holidays, including the Sundays before Christmas and New Year's.

This certified market sets up in a parking lot between 8th and 9th Avenue off Irving Street every Sunday, 9am to 1pm, year-round. It's smaller than the big Bay Area markets, but the mix runs deep: organic produce, pastured eggs and chickens, fresh fish, cheese, honey, pickles, and jam. The lot is reserved for the market during those hours, and organizers welcome neighbors who want to help with setup or cleanup.

Mission Bay Farmers' Market operates on Gene Friend Way between 3rd and 4th Streets in San Francisco's Mission Bay district, near UCSF's Mission Bay campus. It serves a fast-growing neighborhood of offices, labs, and new residential towers built largely since the 2000s.

The Crocker Galleria farmers market sets up under the glass dome at 50 Post St in San Francisco's Financial District every Thursday, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. It's a lunch-hour market built for downtown office workers — organic produce next to ready-to-eat bolani, tamales, smoked seafood, and chocolate. Shoppers note prices run a notch below the Ferry Building market a few blocks away, which is part of why the line moves fast at noon.
