Gilbert Farmers Market

My wife and I lived in Gilbert for 20 years and only recently discovered the Gilbert Farmers Market—we can't believe we missed out for so long! This market has instantly become our favorite Saturday morning ritual. The variety and quality are outstanding, featuring beautiful fresh local produce, incredible baked goods, delicious sweets and treats, plus great food and coffee trucks. It’s the perfect place to start the weekend. Highly recommend stopping by for a truly local experience!

Had a great time at the market. Love their new location. Has plenty of space and room to expand. Will definitely come back again. Loved the vendors.

Wonderful market! Huge and many vendors to choose from. We love supporting local and we are so happy there are gluten free options.

Farmers market is pretty good size. Kind of disappointed there were really only 3-4 places with actual fresh produce. You have to go early or the produce is bought out. What I purchased was very good flavor and good condition ! Lots of other vendors for food, and homemade gifts. Some of the gifts were over priced and others were decent. Plenty of parking as it is held on the back side of college campus.

This market is really loaded! Parking can be tough but it's worth it! Be patient and kind, people here are so it's nice to escape the fast pace of the highways and embrace this zenful market They have everything, coffee, fresh produce, food trucks etc. Tons of great vendors and allot of Local First Arizona's amazing group of business owners creating jobs, creating local goods, embracing sustainability and selling with a mission! Kids love it - you can't find this kind of goodness in a big box store.

Nice assortment of vendors but a big thumbs down for not allowing dogs. Well behaved dogs, dogs on a leash or in a stroller should be allowed. Outdoor markets are a great place for 'the whole family' to shop.

Fun little market to enjoy every Saturday! We spent a long weekend visiting Gilbert from North Idaho. We wanted to do something fun and local and this did not disappoint. More food trucks than I had anticipated.

Will never go to the new location again. Mostly food vendors. Only a couple of produce vendors. No pets allowed is a serious bummer. Should no longer be called a Farmers Market. Maybe change your name to Gilbert Food Trucks and Food Vendors Market : (

The Gilbert Farmers Market is absolutely a 5-star experience and the perfect way to spend a Saturday morning! This market is incredibly well-organized, vibrant, and packed with the best local goods Arizona has to offer. The variety here is outstanding. You can find everything from gorgeous, locally grown seasonal produce and fresh eggs to artisanal bread, local honey, and gourmet coffee. The quality of the products is consistently top-notch, everything just tastes fresher and better than the grocery store. The atmosphere is lively and family-friendly, but never overwhelmingly crowded. It truly captures that wonderful community feel. There are always great food vendors serving ready-to-eat treats and local musicians performing, which makes browsing even more enjoyable. It's also a great spot to meet the actual farmers and makers behind the products. Logistics: It's easy to get to, and while it's popular, the flow of the market keeps things moving smoothly. If you live in the East Valley or are just visiting, make sure the Gilbert Farmers Market is on your weekend itinerary. It's a highlight of the community and truly deserves all five stars!

Used to love this market -- Benny's Tortillas, good vibes, great vendors. Then they moved it, and it's been downhill ever since. Now it's a parking circus and they banned dogs on weekends... during the few months a year we can actually go outside in Arizona with . Genius move. I even tried going back without my dog -- I spent more time trying to park than I did actually shopping. Gilbert Farmers Market really said, "Let's ruin the one nice thing we had." I'll be in Scottsdale, where both I and my dog are welcome.

What a great Farmers Market. You won't find friendlier vendors with quality goods. Definitely check out their food vendors, from Tex mex to Taiwanese options, you can't go wrong. There are a good amount of options for gluten free or celiac restrictions. Every vendor was very knowledgeable of their products.

I love the locations change! Tons of parking and tons of space. Not sure if there are more vendors but they could add more because there is plenty of space. I also feel like there are more food trucks and food vendors than the previous location. There are plenty of tables for dining on the food you purchase. We have been twice in the last month and prior to that I had not gone to Gilbert Farmers Market in over a year. I see many more visits in our future.

Gilbert Farmer's Market has moved to the Chandler Gilbert Community College Campus off Pecos and Cooper. This is less convenient for me, but so much easier for parking and walking around. It seems like most vendors stuck with it so thankfully I was still able to get my Benny Blanco tortillas and Mama Chelo's salsa.

Checked out the new location this weekend while it was raining -- the place was packed! I haven't been to the Gilbert Farmers Market in a couple of years, and it was amazing to see how many booths and food options there were. Even with the rain, there were so many guests! Definitely a fun place to hang out on Saturdays -- we'll be back!

Such a fun Farmers' Market in downtown Gilbert. Lots of parking nearby. Come early, it gets hot quickly! Lots of friendly dogs (hope they left early tho since ground was getting too hot for them. Many vendors had water & treats for them which is nice. My niece & her family are local and visit weekly, introduced us to their favs. All vendors were friendly and nice set ups. Lots of coffee carts, fresh juices, baked goods, salsas and other fresh foods & drinks for all. Lots of ready to eat foods as well, hard to choose where to start! Fresh fruits and veggies looked nice, came at a good time to see fresh Hatch Chilis being roasted and peeled (my brother bought some for later!) Fun water fountains w seating in the shade to enjoy, lots of kids having fun getting wet.

The Gilbert Farmers Market is truly one of the best ways to spend a Saturday morning in the East Valley. It's vibrant, well-organized, and full of amazing local vendors, fresh produce, handmade goods, and some of the best food trucks around. The energy is always great--families, dog walkers, coffee in hand, and so much good food to choose from. Whether you're there for fresh veggies, baked goods, small-batch sauces, or just grabbing a bite to eat, there's something for everyone. I always end up grabbing a latte, trying a new vendor (or two), and walking out with way more than I planned--in the best way. It's the perfect mix of community and quality. Pro tip: Go early to beat the crowds and bring cash or a card with tap--most vendors take both! If you're in Gilbert or nearby, don't skip the farmers market. It's local living at its finest and a must-do weekend tradition!

It's a small farmers market, but had all the basics and necessities to call it a farmers market! I do wish there was more shade to sit in, as under the trees are normally filled. We got coffee, some free samples, and some malasadas which were yummy!

The BEST market in the east valley. So many delicious local options. Tons of farm goods, food & local shops. Every booth is full of the best things & offering locally owned options. Standouts for me- coffee food trucks, seasonings & donuts!! Definitely the place you want to be on Saturday mornings all winter long!!

No longer dog friendly. Fewer vendors and produce. What a historic meltdown of a previously great farmers market. Ouch.

A quaint Saturday Farmers Market with plenty of produce, bagged goodies and eateries. Best thing about the market is the free and spacious parking lot right out front. Food trucks and coffee were located to the left. Produce stands were near the front. Packaged goods and miscellaneous treats composed of the remaining tents. I found the produce to be a tad disappointing in quality, with a majority of the vegetables and fruit to be rotten or battered. It was priced similarly to those in supermarkets and I found the quality to be inferior. Service was fast but hospitality was a bit lacking. Credit cards were accepted at most vendors. Most of the interactions were transactional and there wasn't much conversation to be shared. As a person who's not too big on sweets or pet supplies, I wasn't able to really purchase many items. However I'm sure other Mesa residents would be able to enjoy such options. The venue was clean and sunny and I hope to see fresher produce being sold. At the moment, the market has potential but it's not the greatest.

What an awesome place to shop for local unique items, food and other cool stuff. Talk about a great way to spend a weekend morning! Much to see with some great eats. I ended up with fresh veggies from a farm and a Hawaiian Shrimp bowl that was delicious. I walked by a few times and thought it's pretty early for shrimp but once I saw them and smelled the shrimp, I thought to myself I better grab that for lunch later on. I also tried some great coffee with a line around the corner. I'll get back to you'll on the name of that stand! Excited to go back and take my time to see everything Gilbert has to offer!

First time here , I actually really enjoyed it! I would say get there as early as possible it gets so busy!! Especially because they have so much variety from foods , sweets , breads & etc. I would come again for sure Only thing I didn't really like was the matcha sadly , i didn't even finish it it was so bad honestly not the best I've had way better I'd save my money next time but everything else is so great

One of my favorite place to go on Saturday mornings in downtown Gilbert! There are so many cool things to see and eat. The fruits and veggies are super fresh and colorful. I always buy a bunch to take home. The food trucks are awesome! They have yummy breakfast items and a few different options for coffee. It's like having a picnic with all the best food. Got a pup? There are plenty of dog friendly vendors with water dishes and a few of different treat stands, from cookies to chicken feet and jerky, many options for our 4 (sometimes 3) legged fur babies. But the desserts are the best part! There are so many sweet treats like cupcakes, pastries, and breads. I manage to always gravitate towards the carbs, especially at Noble bread. This time, I picked up two loaves, one sourdough and another sourdough with rosemary. They even have desserts for people who can't eat certain things, which is really cool. Dairy and gluten-free with vegan options are easy to find. The market is so much fun and full of energy. It's the best way to start the weekend. If you go, I bet you'll love it too!

Part of what sold me living in Gilbert was the sense of community, and that is definitely what I feel when I visit the Gilbert Farmers Market on Saturdays. They are open all year round, their hours change in the summer. We love getting sourdough and other fresh baked bread. We grab a bag of pasta from Sonoran Pasta Company, our favorite fresh made pasta! We love stopping for coffee or tea and getting breakfast at one of the many food trucks! There's something for everyone at the Gilbert Farmers market! It is VERY busy when the weather is nice and I'd suggest getting up early to catch your favorites before they sell out. Dogs are welcome but not in the summer after a certain temperature which is smart!! Can't wait for the next Market!

I really enjoy hitting up the Gilbert Farmers Market on Saturdays. It's a great way to spend a weekend morning and an awesome opportunity to check out a ton of local vendors, Though I find this one much more food forward then the downtown Farmers Market, they still have lots of items being showcased from pottery, plants, dog treats and body products. It's always insanely packed and many of the coffee or breakfast food trucks have a very long line, but that is to be expected for a popular farmers market on the weekend. I do love that downtown Gilbert offers ample free parking within a walking distance, even a garage for covered parking on those hot summer days. It's also walking distance to lots of other spots in DT. I would have to say I still prefer the DT Phoenix Farmers market, as I find more unique items and artsy stuff, but the convenience and ease of Gilbert does make it worth going to. I love getting meat from Proper Provision, their black garlic or sage sausage is AMAZING, paired with Noble's ciabatta rolls - chefs kiss! We have also snagged local goat cheese and fresh from this market to pair! Definitely great spot for fresh produce.

Mostly a food festival but w a great deal of variety. Parking free but busy. Friendly and kind patrons and vendors. Increased seating would be great!

Love the local items available here! From local honey (yes there really is Arizona honey)! To fresh produce, food trucks for a bite to eat or drink, and talented craftsmen - Over all the greatest!

I am quite disappointed. There are only 2 merchants selling produces and fresh fruits. I hardly see any arts and crafts related businesses. There are too many food trucks and food stalls. It is more like a food festival than a farmers market. I do like the new location at the campus of the Chandler-Gilbert Community College.

We LOVE this place. It's such a fun atmosphere, being located in Downtown Gilbert. It's nice being able to walk to a lunch spot. Parking can be scarce but when you secure a spot it's so worth it. It's usually packed full of people which I love. It really gives the place a community aspect. Some of our favorite vendors include: AZ Dope Soap: Great soap options, ranging from aromatherapy soaps, pet soaps, charcoal acne detox bars and even bug spray. All with natural essential oils. Jeff's Nursery: Jeff is so friendly and has helped us pick out the perfect vegetables/fruits for our mini garden. Everything is high-quality. Noble Bread: Great options for bread, high-quality and friendly service. Sun Valley Bees: Great assortment of honeys and even bee pollen. Herbs From The Heart: A health store selling essential oil perfumes, cleaning products, tinctures, tea, body sprays, body scrubs, bath salts and more.

It's a cute farmers market, but the traffic and parking there can be a lot. We decided to skip the lot right beside the market as well as the garage and parked in a gravel lot a few blocks away. There are actually farms with fresh produce, flowers, honey, dog treats, lots of food and food trucks, coffee, plants, and bread vendors to choose from. I tried poffcakes and beignets that day since we were only visiting, but both were amazing. I do wish there were more seating set up for people to eat.

Plenty of parking. Good balance of fresh produce with fun products and many food trucks. Particularly liked Estero Beach tacos. Very friendly service. Delicious tacos.

Great farmer's market on the east side. Right in the heart of downtown Gilbert so super convenient to go out to eat, shop, do local activities nearby, or even go hiking in San Tan before/after. Not as big as Uptown but still great options :) I make a special trip for Agritopia because I love their dates and citrus and Benny Blanco Tortillas because they have corn and cassava flour which fits my gluten free and grain free preferences. Always crowded and can get quite hot in the summer as at any other market.

My how this farmer's market has grown since my 2014 review! Great market, excellent parking, and so many more vendors! I love the food trucks and the local produce. This is a great farmers market with an excellent variety of vendors! Yay Gilbert! #ThankYouThursday

Gilbert Farmers Market is a weekend must! Fresh veggies, friendly vendors, and just the right amount of chaos to keep things interesting. It gets packed, but that's part of the charm--just grab a coffee and embrace the stroller traffic jams. If you love good vibes and accidentally spending too much on homemade jam, this place is for you!

This is always a fun market to visit on Saturdays mornings. Gilbert Farmers Market is situated right next to Gilbert's iconic water tower in the downtown area. They usually have close to 100 venders and food trucks and operate all year round. I find it relaxing to come down here and check out some of the products while doing some people watching. People bring their dogs and push their kids in strollers. It makes for a fun community atmosphere. Some of my favorite things to buy are produce from the local farmers, bread from Noble Bread, and pasta from Sonoran Pasta Co. There is a little something for everyone. I will also grab some coffee or a sweet breakfast item from the food trucks. Waffle Crush and Poffcakes Poffertjes are a couple popular spots. There are plenty of restaurants nearby if you want to grab a bite at a sit-down place. Gilbert Farmers Market is very family friendly and a great way to support local businesses.

First time attending the GFM. I've been to the Uptown and Roadrunners Farmers Markets several times. I was pleasantly surprised by how many vendors they have in common, Noble and Proof Bread, Paz Salsa. I loved all the different food trucks that were present. The Salted Knot(award winning), Beignet Babe, Biscuit Freaks, Randizzle's and so many others. OHSO Brewery had a booth, which was a great surprise. There were many artisans with booths present. I loved that this is a fur baby friendly market. I definitely will be back.

Been eyeing on this for a while and made our debut today. We made sure to arrive early and glad that we did. This event takes place every Saturday. There is plenty of parking right in front of the market. It is such a well organized fun event to attend. Since it's getting hot, it's best to go early and beat the heat & crowd. There are plenty of pop up booths to go around from farm fresh veggies and fruits to eggs, bakery, bread, skin care, food trucks, dog treats and what not. This place as such a good vibe with kids, pets, people of all age group just hanging around. Now, that the mask mandate has been lifted, very few were seen with mask (just FYI) We tried few food trucks like the mini donuts (oh so fresh, crisp and delicious), freshly made crepes (they are turning 5 next week, free crepes anyone?) waffles ( the pesto was yummzing) I bought myself plenty of organic farm fresh eggs, fruits and veggies. Overall had a great time and highly recommend this event. Don't miss out.

My husband, son, puppy, in-laws, and I were looking for something fun to do one Saturday morning. We live in Queen Creek so it's a bit far from the farmers market, but we had heard great things and we were willing to make the round-trip. We got there around 9:30 AM. It was already very busy. Parking is plentiful, as there are two different lots available. I'm not sure how plentiful it would be if you arrived later than 9:30 AM. There is no admission fee. You just walk in and there is a lot to see an experience. In fact, there is so much that we only got to really see the right side where all of the food vendors and trucks are. If we made our way over to the left it looks like there was entertainment, and more retail vendors. I would love to go back and experience that. Overall, there is a great variety of things to do and fun for the kids plus it's pet friendly!

So many vendors! This and the Phoenix farmers market are the best. Lots of variety and you can get breakfast while you're there! If you have a bike, you can cruise there from Mesa or Chandler on the canal. Bring your own bags and be ready to spend money!

Well organized and friendly vendors made our inaugural visit, a very pleasant one. I'm assuming it wasn't as busy as usual due to Covid 19 restrictions AND also due to us arriving after 11:00am. (The market closes at noon.) We saw farm fresh produce stands, honey for sale, a CBD oil vendor, vendor for dog treats, florists and a few bakeries. There were many customers and vendors who were diligently wearing face masks, gloves and limiting the amount of people in their business at one time. We left with fresh baked Noble bread $7.00 and bag of spring mix salad $5.00 I feel that both items were of value for the loaf was HUGE and the salad mix stayed fresh for days! For us it was really nice to explore other food purchasing options than shopping at the large grocery store chains. We will visit again.

This was such a fun little farmers market. It's an amazing loop and in a good area. If you've worked up an appetite there's plenty of things to get there or even around the farmer's market! The booths are so nice and have great service. The only bummer is they close around 11 AM i think. If you're an early riser this is the one for you!

A great locations with a variety of fresh produce, meat, cheese, bread, honey, and spreads. While some products are a bit pricey, you can't beat buying and supporting the locals. Such a fun place to pick up ingredients for a meal and/or stock up on fresh produce.

** November 2021 Visit ** I came here for Shop Small Saturday to support some local small businesses. This farmers market did not disappoint as I bought a TON of gifts for family and friends. My purchases *Benny Blanco Homemade Tortillas: This was my first stop and last stop. They gave me a sample of the OG tortilla made with lard and that was delicious. I bought three packs of the large ($7 for 6), which is ideal in making burritos - I can't wait! Also met the owner and his wife, so its great knowing that you're supporting a mom n' pop shop! *Tamale Store Tamales: They sell both hot and frozen and a menu that states what fillings they offer. My friend and I tried the hot pork red chili ($4) and it was great to start our day. The frozen tamales are sold slightly cheaper when bought in the half dozen or dozen. $38 a dozen and you can mix and match. Obviously I bought a dozen lol *Bello Caramels: I bought 2 boxes of nut brittle. One cashew brittle and one pistachios which seemed unique! The owner was super sweet and for $7 a box, I was happy to support her. *Timbo's Spice: I bought a jar of the steak seasoning which has a strong truffle aromatic smell. I can't wait to try it with my roasted veggies and use it as a rub for steak! $9 a jar. Notes -There's a large parking lot, but guests should come first thing in the morning to grab a spot. When we finished shopping at around 9:30am there were lots of cars trying follow/hunt people who were leaving and grab their parking spot -No one wore masks -The market is mid-size, and I think you can probably finish it within 1.5 hours depending if you're waiting for food trucks or eating as there were a couple of vendors that fulfill orders on the spot! -The section next to the parking lot has all food/beverages while the next near the Gilbert Windmill has more arts/etsy seller crafts type of stuff. -There were 4 food trucks -There were only 3 or so stands that sold produce the majority of others were prepared cooked/baked goods -The Tamale Store, which does have a brick and mortar store, had the longest line at this farmers market. The people in line told me that they often sell out of flavors hence the long line. I really loved this farmers market as I got to chat with many owners and learn about their journey with their product. If you're looking to support small this is definitely a spot to catch some of Gilbert's best!

Best Farmers Market! Love the variety, tons of parking, great location!! When in town it is a must on Saturday morning!

Great farmer's market!! Smaller than we expected but still a substantial amount of vendors, ranging from food, small goods, flowers, pet shops, veggies, and food trucks! No shade so be sure to bring a hat and stay hydrated!

I had a chance to take a look through this farmers market while having brunch nearby. The market was pretty large and had a lot of vendors but still ample space between everything. There was fresh produce, breads, food vendors and lots of arts and craft stuff. The prices were the same compared to others farmers markets around. I would definitely stop by if I was in the area again!

The only reason it isn't getting 5 stars is due to the parking and how packed it is. Everyone is sweet and really good food though!

I love coming here to look around on what vendors are out especially during the cool weathers.. I love getting myself lemonade or food from local food trucks and walking around people watching .

This is such a fun farmer's market! There's a wide variety of lovely local foods and crafts available here, as well as a plethora of food trucks to choose from. It's also an extremely dog friendly market. I saw so many cute happy doggos walking around with their humans, and there's even a booth or two that sells dog treats. Some of the vendors and products I remember seeing were La Belle Vie French bakery, local raw honey, hot sauce, AZ Fine Swine heritage breed pork, Double Check Ranch grass fed local beef, Blue Sky Farms produce, and a muesli stand. It's easy to browse through all the stands and even though there were a lot of people here when we went it didn't feel crowded. Parking can be hard to find right next to the market if you come a little later (We came here around 9 and it didn't look like there were many, if any spots left). We parked in a dirt lot a few streets away where other cars had parked but there's also a garage close by that you can use. I only wish this market were open a little bit later when the weather is cool. Their hours for winter are from 8-12 and they are only open on Saturdays. It's a bit of a trek for us to get to Gilbert and waking up early on our day off has to take some serious motivation! Also note that the later you come, the more likely products will be sold out.

It's a pretty nice place to visit. Lots of vendors and nice set up, BUT I was looking for fruits and vegetables, and this is more of a small business grouping.

Gilbert Farmers Market was great! It's in a nice wide open area and have a good amount of vendors. We're from North Scottsdale and are avid farmers market fans and when I had the time to visit, I took the chance. I'm so glad I did! I was able to see Downtown Gilbert and the charms of the city! We specifically went to visit PoffCakes for the first time and we loved it! We also brought our dogs who had fun roaming around as well. I recommend this farmers market!

Always a good time here! I love walking around looking for new things to try. There's a wide variety to choose from. They have fresh produce, lots of breads, food vendors and arts and craft stuff. It's a great way to spend a Saturday morning in Downtown Gilbert!

Check online for the list of vendors and come out early for a great time walking around with friends :) Some of my favorites things to do: Walk a quick lap around to see what is where. Investigate booths that looked interesting and ask questions before buying (have a preset budget before you go lol). Grab a cold drink before I wait in a short/occasional line for a food truck. Some amenities: Restrooms (california park style), Lots of parking, Dog friendly, Support AZ businesses

This is my favorite market! Lovely vendors, kind people, and it is year round. Support Local! ‍

A nice little farmer's market. Little is the key word here. I was hoping there would be more vendors, but hey, it was still worth checking out. Free parking across the street.

Awesome vendors gorgeous day to be outside! I loved the atmosphere and vendors ! My favorite was the coffee from Ethiopia! Loved the smooth flavor and taste! Thank you for the great sample of coffee!

They got the best food trucks, very organized and not super busy which is nice. Parking is a pain though.
