Farmers Market in Ventura (2025)

Ventura’s flagship market since 1986 fills pedestrian-friendly Main Street with more than 45 farmers and food artisans. Recognized by the Los Angeles Times and featured by Edible Ojai & Ventura County, it’s a Saturday ritual with strong local roots and year-round EBT Market Match.

A midweek favorite in the Pacific View Mall’s west lot, this Wednesday market brings peak-season produce, fresh seafood, flowers, and hot foods. Verified by Visit Ventura and the market association, it runs rain or shine and welcomes EBT with Market Match.

A Sunday morning staple behind the Ojai Arcade, celebrated by Edible Ojai & Ventura County for its produce diversity, pastured meats, and local seafood. Longstanding, independently run, and deeply tied to the valley’s growers—just a scenic 20-minute drive from Ventura.

Waterside shopping by the boats with more than 30 growers and makers each Sunday. Listed by Visit Oxnard and known for live music, baked goods, flowers, and farm produce—an easy coastal add-on to a Ventura Harbor day.

Year-round on Thursdays, this Plaza Park gathering mixes regional produce with hot food vendors and community performances. Confirmed active by Downtown Oxnard and Visit Oxnard, it’s a reliable option for midweek Ventura-area shopping.

Volunteer-run and community funded, this Saturday market supports local grief services while showcasing area farms, fishers, and artisans. Praised by Visit Camarillo and local food writers, it’s an easy inland stop with strong ties to growers.

A newer Saturday market hosted at a local cidery, spotlighting Santa Clara River Valley produce and small-batch foods. Verified by the Heritage Valley Tourism Bureau and city announcements, it’s a low-key scene with strong community momentum.

A nonprofit, community-run market every Thursday afternoon with a strong mission around food access; it accepts SNAP, WIC, and Market Match. Distinct from Sunday’s certified market, it’s verified via the market’s official site and regional listings.

Part fundraiser, part local bazaar, this Saturday–Sunday marketplace includes fresh produce stands alongside plants, pantry goods, and finds. Endorsed by Edible Ojai & Ventura County and the Foundation, it’s a distinctly Ventura weekend scene.
