Farmers Markets near Simi Valley, CA

Simi Valley

Simi Valley

Simi Valley's certified market runs Fridays, 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., year-round in the Civic Center Plaza lot next to TGI Friday's. Coastal Pacific Markets manages the vendor roster, and the midday Friday slot pulls a different crowd than a typical weekend market — city workers and retirees more than families. Produce and baked goods anchor the stalls, with kids' activities mixed in most weeks. EBT and WIC are both accepted.

Calabasas

Old Town Calabasas Farmers' Market operates on Calabasas Road in the city's small historic core, near the 19th-century Leonis Adobe ranch house museum. Vendor list, market day, and contact details aren't confirmed online.

Thousand Oaks

Running since 1991, this is one of the two largest farmers markets in Ventura County — Thursdays, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., year-round, rain or shine, in the east parking lot at The Oaks Shopping Center. The Ventura County Certified Farmers' Market Association runs it alongside a dozen other county markets, with meat, herbs, honey, nuts, and juice vendors filling in around the produce stands.

Northridge

Coastal Pacific Markets runs this one as a Wednesday evening event, 5 to 9pm, from March through October at 9301 Tampa Ave — closer to a weekly street festival than a produce-only market. Alongside certified farm stands, expect food trucks, prepared meals, crafters, and live music, all built around a family-outing pitch rather than a quick grocery run. It closes for winter, so don't go looking for it in January.

Topanga

Fridays, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the Topanga Community Center — a certified market with close to 40 vendors selling organic produce alongside vintage and handmade goods, six and a half miles up Topanga Canyon Boulevard past the Theatricum Botanicum. It functions as much as a canyon meeting point as a grocery run.

Northridge

This market operates on the Cal State Northridge campus in the San Fernando Valley, geared toward students, faculty, and staff rather than the surrounding residential neighborhood.

Valencia

Santa Clarita's certified market has run every Sunday since 1993 in Lot 5 of College of the Canyons' Valencia campus, 8 a.m. to noon, rain or shine. More than 40 California farms show up weekly, and produce is often picked 12 to 48 hours before it hits the table. Beyond crops, expect bakery stands, eggs, honey, cut flowers, potted plants, and meat vendors, with onsite food carts for breakfast while you shop.

Malibu

Malibu Farmers' Market sets up at the Malibu Civic Center on Civic Center Way, drawing on Southern California growers for produce, flowers, and prepared foods along the Malibu coast. It has long served as a weekend gathering point for the community.

Van Nuys

The Encino Farmers Market is operated by the nonprofit ONEgeneration as a community fundraiser, held at the organization's site at 17400 Victory Boulevard in Van Nuys. Market proceeds support ONEgeneration's senior and intergenerational programs. It runs year-round on Sunday mornings.

Camarillo

A school food hub listing at an industrial-park address in Camarillo, California, in Ventura County's produce-growing region. No verified details on this specific hub's operations or partner schools turned up in current research.

Sherman Oaks

Sherman Oaks' certified market runs every Tuesday, rain or shine, on Riverside Drive, in the middle of the Valley's restaurant row. SEE-LA — the nonprofit behind several LA farmers markets — manages the vendor roster, so growers rotate through a shared circuit rather than committing to one neighborhood. It's a lunch-and-after-work crowd more than a Saturday destination market.

A certified farmers market operating at 13356 Eldridge Avenue in Sylmar, in the northeast San Fernando Valley. Listings for exact hours and days vary across directories, so it's worth confirming the current schedule before heading out — vendors typically carry certified produce alongside handmade crafts.

Camarillo

A market listing in Camarillo, California. The business's website domain was listed for sale during research, and no current details on products, hours, or vendors could be verified.

Santa Monica

Santa Monica runs two markets on this stretch of Arizona Avenue: Wednesdays, established in 1981, with more than 60 California farms — one of the largest certified markets in the country — and Saturdays, added a decade later, where the vendor mix skews hardest toward certified organic growers. Both run 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. year-round, rain or shine, and both take CalFresh EBT. The city runs it directly, not a private association.

Los Angeles

Santa Monica

Santa Monica's other weekly market runs Sundays on Main Street in Ocean Park, smaller and more neighborhood-scale than the Wednesday and Saturday markets on Arizona Avenue. The city's Community and Cultural Services division runs all of Santa Monica's certified markets under one office, so vendor standards and produce sourcing rules stay consistent across every location — just a shorter walk for Main Street and Ocean Park residents.

North Hollywood

North Hollywood's certified market runs Saturdays, 8:30am to 1:30pm, at 5000 Colfax Ave in the middle of the NoHo Arts District. A nonprofit runs it, pairing California produce stalls with prepared food and artisan vendors, and the district's theater and gallery foot traffic keeps it steady year-round. It's a smaller certified market, not one of L.A.'s produce-heavy giants, but it's held a spot in the neighborhood for years.

Century City

Century City Farmers' Market sets up at 1800 Avenue of the Stars, with parking available at the Century City mall and a pedestrian bridge over to the stalls. Along with the produce tables, the food vendors lean international, empanadas, Greek food, barbecue, and soup are regular fixtures. As a certified market it's food-safety regulated, so pets aren't allowed inside.

Beverly Hills

Ventura

Saticoy Food Hub connects roughly two dozen small Ventura County farms to buyers who want local produce, from schools and hospitals to neighborhood businesses. Since launching, the hub has routed close to $900,000 directly to those farmers and gotten fresh food to about 5,000 families. It also runs Saticoy Sowers workshops and is building a wholesale ordering platform so institutions can buy from multiple local farms through one channel.

Los Angeles

Mar Vista Farmers' Market runs every Sunday from 9am to 2pm, rain or shine, at the corner of Grand View Boulevard and Venice Boulevard on LA's Westside. Vendors sell fresh and dried fruit, nuts, greens, mushrooms, grass-fed meat and cheese, fresh-squeezed juice, sustainably caught seafood, and prepared foods including vegan and gluten-free options.

Oxnard

Food Share of Ventura County runs its warehouse and headquarters at 4156 Southbank Road in Oxnard, coordinating food for 335 distribution sites and roughly 200 pantry partners across the county. It's not a walk-up market — the warehouse is the hub behind gleaning drives, senior food programs, and a kids' farmers' market program that reaches over 250,000 residents a year. Find the nearest pantry through their site's food-finder map.

Los Angeles

Melrose Place Farmers' Market is a small weekly market on Melrose Place in Los Angeles, distinct from the larger farmers markets on Fairfax and Melrose Avenue. It draws on Southern California growers for a compact, neighborhood-scale shopping stop.

A farmers market on West Manchester Avenue in the Westchester neighborhood of Los Angeles, near LAX and Loyola Marymount University.

Los Angeles

Hollywood Food Coalition doesn't sell food — it rescues it. Restaurants and grocers across Los Angeles donate surplus food nightly, and the coalition redistributes it through more than 200 partner organizations and its own nightly, chef-prepared dinner service with on-site wellness support. Volunteers also run a Sunday Lunch Bags Project and scale up meal production during citywide emergencies.

Raw Inspiration, a nonprofit that builds organic gardens in Southern California schools, runs this Thursday market from 10am to 2pm year-round on the Howard Hughes Center plaza. Vendors bring fresh produce, meats, and dairy from local farms alongside street food and crafts, serving the office workers and residents around the Westside business park. Proceeds support the group's school garden programs.

Los Angeles

This certified farmers market sets up along Rodeo Road near La Brea Avenue in the Baldwin Hills / Crenshaw area of Los Angeles.

Los Angeles

Silver Lake's market runs Tuesdays, 1 to 7 p.m., on Sunset Boulevard — SEE-LA operates it as part of the same circuit that includes Sherman Oaks and several other LA neighborhood markets. The vendor list runs deeper than produce: meat, poultry, cheese, honey, and cut flowers alongside the standard fruit and vegetable stands, built more as an after-work stop than a Saturday-morning destination.

An indoor-adjacent market at The Americana at Brand, Glendale's open-air shopping and residential complex on Americana Way. Vendors set up along the retail promenade with produce stands and prepared food, a different format from the standalone parking-lot markets found elsewhere in Glendale. Confirm current days before visiting, since scheduling shifts around mall events.
