San Rafael · Agritourism Farm

Marin Convention & Visitors Bureau operates from 1 Mitchell Boulevard in San Rafael as the county's destination marketing organization, not a farm itself. It publishes a visitor's guide, lodging directory, and event calendar covering Marin County, including its farms, ranches, and agricultural tourism. Reach the office at (415) 925-2060.

San Rafael · Farmers Market

AIM's Thursday market takes over 4th Street near B Street in downtown San Rafael, 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., year-round. It's the smaller sibling to the Institute's Sunday market at the Civic Center — same certified growers, same rule that farmers only sell what they grow, just a tighter downtown footprint suited to a lunch-hour or after-work stop rather than a full grocery haul.

San Rafael · Farmers Market

The Sunday market at the Marin Civic Center, run by the Agricultural Institute of Marin, has been ranked among the top ten farmers markets in the country. It runs year-round, 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., off Ave. of the Flags in the Veterans Memorial Auditorium lot — a big enough footprint that AIM also uses it for food-education programs alongside the produce stands. It's the larger of AIM's two San Rafael markets.

San Rafael · Farmers Market

Marinwood Community Farmers' Market operates on Marinwood Avenue in the Marinwood neighborhood of San Rafael. Marin County is home to some of the Bay Area's best-known organic and small-scale farms, and this market serves the community north of downtown San Rafael.

San Rafael

Run by the Agricultural Institute of Marin, this seasonal market sets up on Fourth Street between A and Lootens in downtown San Rafael one Friday evening a month, spring through fall, 5 to 9 p.m. AIM also runs San Rafael's larger year-round Thursday market at 10 Ave of the Flags, 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

San Anselmo · Farmers Market

The Agricultural Institute of Marin runs this Friday-evening market, 4 to 8pm through October, in the Elan Fitness Center parking lot at 220 Greenfield Avenue. It's one of several certified markets the nonprofit operates around Marin County, built around organic produce, grass-fed meats, and baked goods from small regional farms rather than resellers. Like most Marin markets, it closes for the winter months.

Fairfax

We were founded over 50 years ago with a dream of offering our community the highest quality organic food that we could find. From our early days on 123 Bolinas Road to today, we’ve remained committed to advocating for a healthier and more sustainable food system. Never content to simply accept the status quo, we have always pushed the envelope and tried to encourage food growers and manufacturers to produce food of a higher quality. We believe that food is sacred, and that organic food is a cri

Novato · Agritourism Farm

Lovepatch Farms raises miniature horses on a small property in Novato, about 29 miles north of San Francisco, and runs appointment-only tours built around hands-on time with the animals. The farm advertises its tours and presentations as accessible for all ages and abilities, and draws visitors from well beyond the Bay Area. It's a niche operation — no crops, no produce stand — just the horses and a visit booked in advance.

Richmond · CSA Farm, Farmers Market

Urban Tilth runs North Richmond Farm, a 10-acre urban agriculture site that anchors the group's food justice work in Richmond, California. The nonprofit sells CSA shares, gives away produce at free farm stands, hands out fruit trees through its Orchard for ALL program, and grows native plants at its own nursery. It also trains and hires local residents to do the growing, treating job creation as part of the food-access mission.

Novato · Farmers Market

The City of Novato runs this one on Tuesdays, May through October, on Sherman Avenue next to City Hall's lawn — 4 to 8pm through summer, trimming to 4 to 7pm as the season winds down in October. Local growers set up alongside prepared-food stalls, live music, and kids' activities, making the grassy setting as much a weeknight hangout as a produce run. It's seasonal, not year-round.

Richmond · Farmers Market

Richmond Main Street Initiative, a nonprofit working to bring foot traffic back to downtown Richmond, runs this Wednesday market, 10am to 2pm, at Nevin Plaza near Nevin Avenue and 13th Street. Fresh seasonal produce shares the plaza with live music, artisan vendors, baked goods, and kettle corn — part farmers market, part weekly gathering point for a neighborhood in the middle of a comeback.

Richmond · Farmers Market

Richmond's certified market sets up at 24th Street and Barrett Avenue in the city's Iron Triangle neighborhood, an East Bay refinery and shipping town more associated with industry than farmland. Growers from the surrounding Bay Area counties sell direct here rather than through wholesale channels.

Forest Knolls · Farm Stand

People consider the increase in the cost of gasoline and the ever rising prices of produce and other groceries to be negative. The trend and demand for local goods in the heart of our magnificent Marin County has become noteworthy. The impact of this philosophy is far-reaching in nearly every sphere of life. It develops the local economy positively, fosters responsible stewardship of our beautiful land, and instills a sense of communion with the seasons and the farmers in our communities. We hav

San Francisco · Farmers Market

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.
