San Rafael

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

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.

Like most Marin markets, it closes for the winter months.

It's a niche operation — no crops, no produce stand — just the horses and a visit booked in advance.

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.

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.
