Vallejo Farmers’ Market

Small and mediocre and definitely over priced. Most of the time some sort of drama ensues, which in it’s own way can be entertaining, sometimes concerning.

I love this market! The kettle corn is the best and if you go an hour before they close a lot of the produce is .99 a pound. They have a huge selection of really fresh foods.

Excellent year-​round farmers market with a variety of venders, shops, and restaurants. To top it all off it is located in the underrated beautiful historic downtown Vallejo and only a few blocks from the Mare Island Strait.

My favorite farmers market in all of the bay area. I’ve be coming here off and on foe the last 15 years. You can find everything from fresh veggies and fruits to handmade crafts.

Diverse, with music, food, flowers, organics AND extended hours now, Saturday’s 9−2pm all year round!!! To top it off there’s a new fresh kombucha/​beverage store and Antiques store! The weather is great and folks are nice! Check it out

This Farmers Market has come a long way over the years. My only minor complaint is there a fair amount of vendors selling the same thing. Would be nice to see a bit more variety.

It’s a nicely sized good farmer’s market and for Vallejon’s (cut off by direct access to bay area by a stretch of water) a fantastic option. Kid friendly, parking plenty (depending on when you get there), a variety of stores from groceries, cooked food, accessory shops, bakery food, a fish stand etc. Also adding to the ambiance there are some nice antique stores around the place that has some good deals. However I didn’t give ⁵⁄₅ because I found the groceries, bread, cakes and all other material to be a bit overpriced. I understand that it’s promoting local farmers and will help the community etc etc … but when the prices are 2 – 3 bucks more than the price at whole foods on a given day, I will tend to stay away. I went in April. Hopefully once summer hits most of the items will be fairly priced.
Also I went to Diana’s delectable to get some cakes. The first time I went she was on the phone. 10 minutes later I went and she was still on the phone. I couldn’t ask any questions and she I took one slice of cake and she took my money and handed it back without even looking still went on talking on the phone. And that would be the last time I go there!

I’ve been to many Farmer’s Markets and this is probably the most sparse… still good option of fruit/​veggie vendors along with eggs, flowers.
This particular Farmer’s market is mixed with a ‘swap meet’…purses, belts, hats booth, incense booth, aprons… and maybe 4 food vendors — bbq, baked potato/​nacho booth, kettle corn, and something else… can’t even remember!
Nice sense of community and breakfast options! And an antique store who stole my saying for antiques… «Dead People’s Stuff». lol

Great Saturday market. They have a lot of organic produce as well as conventional. Several booths are selling baked goods, also a booth selling a variety of shellfish. The prices are good and the produce is from the farm to your table. Vallejo is the one if the most diverse cities in the country and this market is a reflection of the diversity. Also have BBQ and food booths. Worth checking out if you’re in the area. Vallejo gets a bad rap but, come to the Saturday market to see how good Vallejo is becoming.

Nice little farmers market for your weekly grocery shopping. Cuz I’m a fatass, I usually come here for the corn on the cob and baked hot potatoes. Today’s corn wasn’t as sweet but potatoes are good as always. They have good stuff here so go check it out for urself :)

Vallejo’s Farmer’s Market deserves 5 stars for many obvious reasons such as; parking & accessibility, kid friendly environment, prepared food vendors, attractive prices, and locally grown in season selections. But it’s the un-​obvious reasons that keep me coming back like locally raised fresh eggs, knowing that the folks who need it the most are able to pay with their CalFresh card, and the renewed motivation to eat healthy foods. Also, seeing our friends and neighbors shop weekly is clearly strengthening our community. Even if you’re not into buying food, there are other miscellaneous vendors and the waterfront for strolling — great way to start the weekend.

What a fantastic option for organic fruits & veggies here in Vallejo! Since we don’t have tjs or whole paycheck. Even saw some beats by Dre ear phones. Jumpies. Tons of samples. Next time I’m getting a super baked potato & going at the end for last minute deals. :)

Great place to get local fruits and vegetables and reasonable prices! The BBQ smells great and the kettle corn is too! The local honey is great and so is the salami! We usually pick up our fruits there every Saturday.

Recently moved to Vallejo and haven’t missed a Saturday yet. My bf and I get all of our vegetables and fruits from here. Rarely buy from the supermarket. The Farmer’s Market has fresh, succulent fruits and vegetables, bright and flavorful and some unique. Love the experience and other foods available. Seeing new tents with new fruits or veggies is always a plus. Oh, and did I mention they have GREAT prices. Organic and some not organic, but just as amazing.

I’ve been going to the VFM for quite some time now and I love love love the produce and other cool things that you can find there (eggs, hummus, plants, fresh cut flowers, baked goods, coffee.etc.etc). I’ve never eaten any of the street food but it always smells delicious and there are also some clothes, accessory, toy vendors for people who are looking for those types of things at the VFM. Parking is free, admission is free, and its a fun little place to walk around on a Saturday.

Great fresh produce. I was happy to see the bolani guy there passing out samples as this is my favorite treat! Bolani is this tasty Afghan bread that is filled with potatoes, pumpkin, lentils etc… They are served with spreads like hummus and chutney and I just love them!
Anyways back to the Farmers Market. Turns out it is every Saturday all year long and that makes my heart happy! Along with fruits and veggies you can get honey, baked goods and kettle korn. There are some cute shops on the same street to venture into if you have the time.
I am so excited I found out about this and will be visiting again soon!

Like going here to take family strolls on Saturday mornings. We are regulars at the good day café. after breakfast We always pick up a bunch of flowers $ 5−10… Depending on what we select. Fruits/​veggies are pretty reasonably priced.
I’ve walked by the meyer’s BBQ tent for a year now and decided to finally indulge my pregnancy craving with a footling hotdog. First of all the line was long, I placed my order and the guy said «5minutes». I stood back and waited patiently. Then I saw many others ordering the same and some getting the footling and some waiting. After 10 minutes I approached the guy and asked him about the hotdog. He says, oh I just sold the last one. Really?! Wtf. Needless to say I’m not ever going to bother, they were not organized in managing their line and it was just a damn hotdog. Sac’s is pretty close, I will stick with what I know!

OH the joy of Saturday’s!
Bag of fruit at 12:30 pm =$ 3 dollors
Hot link + Kettle Corn= $ 10 dollors
Vallejo’s staple comic relief= $ Priceless $

Saturday was a rainy day so the food vendors may have decided not to come. only a few were visible: kettle corn, shelled oysters, breads, pies, india foods, coffee was about it.
the farmers market stretched over 3 blocks on georgia with a few artisans, the rest were selling various vegetables and frutits. some organics were present (blueberry, strawberryO.
parking was easy to find nearby.

While I don’t want to raise any alarm bells, I’ve got something to say to y’all. You know that song from R.E.M., right? Well I’ve tweaked the lyrics a little bit and it goes something like this: «It’s the end of Oil as we know it, and I feel fine!»
Let me explain… Our dependence on oil has been without bounds, but we’re finally realizing that black gold is called gold for a reason… Just like the Forty Niners had to dig deeper and deeper into that river for a nugget of gold, we’ve got to dig really fucking deep into the ocean to get our black gold fix… And we’re now jonesin’ pretty much 24 – 7. So it’s time to face the facts: we’re running out of oil. Yeah, it’ll hurt a little bit but, y’know what? We may come out better in the end…
Now’s the time to buy local, support green, sustainable, and renewable energy, and instead of buying produce shipped via gas guzzling ships originating in Chile or China, why don’t you head over to your Local Farmer’s Market and see what they have to offer?
We go to the Vallejo Farmer’s market regularly, and we find plenty of wonderful vegetables, far cheaper even than you’ll pay at Safeway… They have beautiful flowers, fava beans, english peas, asparagus, Naan & chutney, even… They’ve got it all… and you get to bond with your neighbors, which you better fucking get used to, because unless you want to become a recluse, now’s the time to (in 60’s parlance) «smile on your brother, everybody get together, try to love one another right now.»
Peace out.
