The California Farmersâ Markets Association (CFMA) operates 15 Certified Farmersâ Markets across the San Francisco Bay Area, serving more than 48,000 families each week. Our markets connect communities with fresh California-grown food while supporting local farmers through vibrant, family-friendly experiences, educational programs, and seasonal events.

Food from the farmers' market tastes sweet, crisp, and fresh!
Often fruits and vegetables were picked just hours before the farmers' market opens, and have traveled less than fruits and vegetables traveling through the conventional wholesale channel to the grocery stores. The fruit offered at farmers' markets is sweeter because it has higher sugar content because it has ripened on a tree instead of a truck/train or shelf. Talk to your favorite farmers about their harvest techniques, their favorite family recipes and their special heirloom seeds handed down through generations. .
Interested in joining a market?
Our team has run award-winning farmers markets for over 30 years. Many markets are full, but spaces sometimes open from expansion, new market days, vendor turnover, or other reasons.
Farmers (Certified Producers) may apply year-round. Non-agricultural food vendors may apply each year from January to March.
Applications do not guarantee a spot. To keep high-quality, state-certified markets, all vendors must follow our Rules and Regulations.
