In San Diego County, there is at least one farmers' market every day of the week.
Around 50 certified farmers' markets convene each week in the greater San Diego area, Monday through Sunday. Our mild mediterranean climate and over 360 organic farms means there is an abundance of fresh, local produce year-round. Farmers' markets also offer food shoppers access to locally produced beef, chicken, turkey and other fowl, pork, lamb, rabbit, local fish and shellfish, cheese, organic dairy, and cheese from across Southern California and Northern California.
Our editorial team tracks and monitors the status of farmers’ markets in our region and contribute updates to this list. You can also help us stay current! Send corrections and additions to info@ediblesandiego.com and use subject line "Farmers' Market Update."
