One of the reasons we love livin in Santa Cruz is the abundance of locally grown produce, artisan foods and access to sustainable farming practices. Our local Farmers Market is a haven for all of these things! With five different locations, getting out to a farmers market has never been more do-able!
Hours and locations are as follows:
Downtown:
Cedar St & Lincoln St. ~ Wednesday @ 1:30PM-6:30PM (Spring/Summer); 1:30PM-5:30PM (Fall/Winter)

In addition to multiple locations, our farmers markets have over 70 vendors involved! That's a lot of fresh foods!
For 25 years now, our local farmers markets have been a staple in our community, providing quality foods and leading the charge in sustainable practices. With campaigns such as EBT & Market Match, Waste Smart, The FoodShed Project and more, Santa Cruz farmers markets provide healthy and affordable alternatives to supermarket goods, while also helping to reduce, reuse and recycle!
