About the Market
Background
Founded in 1943 as the first farmers’ market in California, Alemany Farmers' Market began as a wartime measure to provide an outlet for surplus and distressed crops from neighboring counties. Known as 'the people’s market' for its long history, affordable prices, and bustling community atmosphere, it has seen farming families selling their goods for two or even three generations.
Practices
The market supports local farming families by providing a consistent outlet for their produce and prepared goods, fostering a direct connection between farmers and consumers.
The Rest
Open every Saturday, rain or shine, Alemany Farmers' Market features colorful stalls, free parking, and a vibrant community atmosphere that distinguishes it from other markets in the city.
