First time there, but I worked one of the booths. Very neighborhood-oriented. Nestled between businesses in a public parking lot. People shopping there are very nice. Good selection of fruits, vegetables, meats and food.

A bit expensive and not too many stands, so generally a limited selection of goods, but good for basic product, eggs, meat, bakery, etc. Go grab some things to snack on and walk to Golden Gate 🤙

Petite farmers market that often has amazing strawberries and an assortment of other produce. Frequently has live music too to entertain little ones.

Nice to have a Sunday farmer's market in the neighborhood even though it's small. I love that I can always get fresh eggs, fresh flowers, and fresh almond milk (original & lavender my favorites). There is a stand that sells fresh pasta and a variety of pasta sauces & dips, really good! The market has nice selection of seasonal fruits. I only get veggies here occasionally, as I find them a little pricey and not that much different in quality comparing to some local veggie shops. There is usually someone playing music, which is nice. Try to go early when they first open at 9am, some things (like the eggs) get sold out fast. Driving not recommended--very hard to find parking. Muni lines (N, 7, 44, 43) are nearby and are more convenient.

Every Sunday, the farmers market takes over the tiny parking lot. It's my favorite time of the week. The vendors have been coming here for a while and it's fun to see them interact with all the regulars. I get all my fresh veggies for the week from various vendors here. A popular item I see visitors get is a basket of strawberries. But there is usually a deal to get 3 baskets for $10.

It's a small but nice. Ken's fruits white peaches and mango nectarine are delicious. They have a lot of vendors that sell figs are also delicious and sweet but a little bit pricey. Great place to shop for great organic fruits.

Love this place. Ravioli guy in the back is the best, get the butternut squash. Best fresh food are the papusas. (Try the breakfast one too!) Stone fruit vendor awesome hybrids. Berry family hooks it up with the 3 pack. Seafood is pricey but quality. Local honey dude represents several neighborhood around the city. (Great for allergies!) Nice affordable flowers. Hit the dairy and get the herb flavored cheese curds, eat them fresh. Support the live musicians with a couple bucks while you're spending. The petitioners out front are usually doing something good for the city. Take your picnic to the Arboretum (botanical gardens) right inside Golden Gate Park a block away, where it's free for city residents. If you have kids, the academy of science is right there. If you don't, so is the De Young. Have a great Sunday!

Conveniently accessible by public transit, near many shops and restaurants on Irving, this market, while on the smaller side, has much to offer. Organic produce is aplenty, although prices and selection aren't necessarily the most competitive. However, if you need something quick, especially organic, chances are good you will find it here.

Convenient. Fresh local produce. Friendly vendors. Pleasant experience. Bring reusable bags for purchases. Stop by customer service first if you have food stamps (CALFRESH) to match dollars from your CalFresh account. Most of the vendors accept CalFresh.

Small farmers market located in a parking lot in the Inner Sunset. Although small compared to other farmers market, it has a good mix of vendors serving the community. Operating on Sundays from 9 am - 1 pm.

The Inner Sunset Farmer Market is not huge, but it does have a nice mix of vendors. I saw merchants selling Fruit / Veg, Meats, Mushrooms, Honey, Flowers and some Hot Foods. Shopping here will allow you access to most things one could want, but due to the market size there are limitations. If you live in the area or plan to visit a local shop then I'd say take a moment on a Sunday morning to visit the Farmers Market. On this tripI picked up some Strawberries from Urban Organics. As for parking, I found a spot a block to the South. competition for spaces was a bit fierce but we also had the monthly Flea market today.

I was grateful I had cash in my wallet: There were terrific finds at this small yet diversified farmers' market. The small parking lot between 8th and 9th Avenue just off Irving is reserved Sundays 9-1. Honey, hummus, French bakery, lots of individual farms selling everything from peaches, blackberries, scallions, little gem lettuce and summer squash. Organic strawberries were nicely priced at $13 for three overflowing baskets (they're usually more at other farms). The same vendor had fresh dill, bouquets of flowers and interesting heirloom beans. The lemon meringue tarte was irresistible and we spent our last $10 on two half pints of pesto. Unless you can walk or take the N-Judah, parking in the Inner Sunset on Sunday is challenging but worth it.

The Inner Sunset Farmers' Market is one of my top in the city! They have great vendors and the size of the market is very intimate. I didn't get to snap a lot of pictures because my hands were so full! They have a pasta stand that is a must stop. Their homemade creamy pesto is delicious and their pasta is so good. They have good bundle deals as well. I posted a picture of the pasta I made from them with their sauce as well. My other faves were the chocolate stand, baked goods, hummus, mushrooms, and pet stand! They each had really great items for sale and I felt like I was supporting awesome local businesses. My cat loved the treats from the pet stall. The baked goods were incredible, all of them homemade and perfect to eat. The greens are also so luscious and affordable! I got kale for $2 in a bundle deal with my friends and also found some incredible Thai basil. The aroma was so enticing, I can't wait to cook with it. They also have many opportunities to buy some fresh flowers, eggs, and meat. I didn't take advantage of those stalls this time but I'm already gearing up to go again next weekend so I probably will then! This time I'll take more pictures too.

The Inner Sunset Farmers' Market is a goldmine for honey, cheese and gorgeous flower arrangements. It doesn't get as crowded as some other farmer's markets--which I love since I hate crowds--and it also has high quality vegetables and beautiful fruits. There is a pupusa stand that makes delicious pupusas. The guy allowed me to borrow his entire bottle of Tapatio sauce since I'm kind of a stickler for hot sauce to eat mine. They were legit pupusas! Very tasty. Love this farmer's market and will be back to visit soon.

It's a nice small farmer's market on Irving between 8th and 9th. Ken's has tasty fresh fruits ( peaches , nectarines, grapes , apricots etc ) for reasonable prices. Fresh cut flower bouquets are so pretty. This farmer's market is nowhere near the size of the one at Ferry Building but the nice thing is it's not crazy crowded.

What a dummy, I don't know why I never did a review of a farmer's market, I certainly go to them enough. This is fairly small farmer's market. It's located between two streets in a parking lot, you would easily miss it if you were not aware of its location. It's only there on sundays from dawn to arou1:00p. You can get an abundance of organic farm fresh market items here. You have a food truck that has great papusas, there is honey, fish, eggs, flowers, berries galore and vegetables. One vendor in particular that we often always visit is run by this Hmong lady, her booth is normally on the south side of the parking lot. She has some of the freshest leafy green vegetables we have ever gotten. This time she had some Thai broccoli, just think of a grown up broccoli raab, if you are a fan of different leafy greens, the Thai broccoli is a can't miss. We have gotten pea sprouts and chard of all types. She had another type of leafy green which I never bothered to ask what it's called, it sort of looked like broccoli raab which was also pretty fantastic. Do look for this ladies booth if you want great fresh organic vegetables. I've been there when there was a musician or musicians playing there on occasions. If you are a blueberry or strawberry fan, if someone is selling it you will get some of the best organic ones.

Thank you for bringing farmers & small business vendors to this neighborhood! You make it possible for people who have low incomes (and use EBT) to get fresh produce

Cute little farmers market here on Sundays! I am definitely a fan of a good farmers market because it is a very nostalgic experience for me. My parents used to take me to the farmers market every weekend growing up in North Carolina. That being said, SF farmers markets are clearly not the same, but they do put a good amount of fresh produce at our finger tips...especially when sometimes the closest thing to you is the produce section at Target. meeps. This farmers market is small and from other reviews it looks like the vendors might rotate in and out. When I went it was primarily produce and not much of anything else. For covid times, it was really busy, but there was a line to get into the market itself so there is definitely a conscious effort to keep the crowding to a minimum. Good to stop by for some good produce, but probably not great if you're looking for a big farmer's market to peruse. It's more of a stop by for 10-15 minutes and you're basically done with your shopping!

So today is Easter 2019. And before I would go to church with my father, I decided to get a bagel and cream cheese at 9th and Irving. And then I decided to walk by the farmer's market for a drink. I walked through this farmer's market(Inner Sunset) and decided on a small apple cider. The apple cider was nice, crisp, fresh, and natural tasting. The apple cider complimented by bagel perfectly. I had not gotten something from this farmer's market before, but decided to today. Then we went to church after. This is SF life and it's nice. Happy Easter!

Very small and cute as far as farmer's markets go. Great deals on organic produce, and very nice vendors. The whole vibe is very intimate. There's live music too. Every local should definitely check it out on Sunday.

A good local spot for discount produce. If you're eating your veggies like you should, the big supermarkets are just not affordable for most people.

Farmers markets are not my thing but I've come to love this one. The food is always fresh, the verity changes with the seasons and it is the opposite of mass supermarket food. The sellers get to know you & what you like. There is a personal touch in an age of impersonal apps / txt / ATMs. They will take take credit cards thanks to Square, but bring cash. Better for every one. Also, the sellers don't bring too much so, to get the best selection, get there just before 9am.... then go to Arismendies for pastries after.

I get every thing that I need at this market. It's not big and it's a nice market with small farmers. So if you need basic veg (there's an Asian veg vendor here too which is so great) and fruits, it's a good neigborhood/Sunday market.

It's a small farmer's market, but this is what really makes Inner Sunset to shine. We visit Ken's for their unbelievably sweet peaches every Sunday :)

What can I say about this? We walk to the market every time that we visit SF. It is so fun to just browse through the fruits and vegetables during the winter when it is cold and snowy at home. We always enjoy taking home some fresh fruit and vegetables to prepare for our meals while we are visiting. They also have some awesome fresh seafood and fish.

I enjoy coming here almost every Sunday to pickup fruits and desserts. The food is fresh and it does change a bit when the seasons change. A great location as it is a bit out of the way from traffic. It can get super busy making it difficult to find parking so I recommend getting their early. Plus, the bonus is there are a bunch of eateries close by to snack or eat.

What do you do when your most favorite place for food has shut down for spring break for two weeks? The place that you go to (practically, give or take a day) every. day. Sometimes three times a day? What do you do? Huh? Do you decide to learn how to cook? Do you get some basic frozen food from Trader Joes and perfect your microwave skills? No - No... none of the above. You head on over to the ISFM and you stock up on unbelievable free samples of Afghan bread and dips, spicy cilantro and jalapeno hummus and lemon pita chips, blood red oranges, and toffee covered nuts. You make friends with the kind people who come to ISFM on a regular basis and then you support such an inspiring Sunday morning ritual and gathering by buying all of the above (except the toffee covered nuts. Was real tempted to, but gotta draw the sugar line somewhere). Trust.

I drove cross town hoping to find a farmers market to buy some early girl dry farm tomatoes. The images in the yelp page indicated there were vegetables at this market. When I got there it was just a flea market, not a farmers market.

You think the Ferry Building Farmers Market has it all. Then you go to Inner Sunset Farmers Market. What I loved about this foodie's delight: 1) Stopped by after a filling breakfast at Art's Cafe, collected 3 danishes for $5 total, and 3 delicious-looking heirloom tomatoes for $2.75. 2) A true local's market, not a tourist spectacle and not jammed with lines of yups waiting for their rotisserie chickens. This is a more welcoming, more affordable and navigable market. 3) Bringing your dog? Drop him off at the dog nanny when you walk in. They'll gladly keep him occupied while you peruse the stands. 4) Today there was a great down-home 4-piece band playing a variety of mellowed-out acoustic tunes, led by a basic drum kit. Sort of an Iron and Wine meets Calexico meets CSNY? Families stopped to listen between trips to the vegetable and local honey booths. 5) Not just for eggplants and squash. Get your baked goods, cactus, hummus, blueberries, etc. 6) A great addition to a great neighborhood that more people need to recognize.

How can a small Sunday farmers market make us so happy-five stars worth? By how awesome the vendors & farmers are!! We happened upon the farmers market by accident (after walking to the nearby bakery), over a half an hour before the market opened. No one chased us away with a "it's too early" and they didn't mind talking while they were setting up. We really enjoyed all the views of fresh organic fruit & vegetables! I was almost driven to tears when our Lone Oak Organic farmer gave us an extra bag of delicious almonds! Happy shopping, better eating! Thank you Inner Sunset Farmers Market!

I and my husband are so, so excited to be able to walk to this market on Sunday mornings. We're glad to see a great selection of vendors of various products and services - here are some of our favourites: Serendipity - my favourite vegetable vendor - they offer wonderful chard and different kales (my staples) at most amazing prices (far below Andronico's/ regular grocery prices) Fifth Crow - really beautiful, pristine produce - the most gorgeous young onions and the most delicate, tiny lettuces. I like that they sell bags of mixed greens. Her Farm - sells great Asian vegetables - Ong Choy, Bok Choy, Gai Lan... Santa Cruz Seafood - a bit pricey, but I'm so glad to see a vendor that sells fish and shellfish. We tried their tiger prawns once and though they cost us a pretty penny, they tasted like mini lobsters. Spring Hill Jersey Cheese - we are just getting around to discovering this vendor, though they are also at the Ferry Building on Saturdays. Their flavoured German quark cheese (we tasted vanilla) is astounding. A perfect accompaniment to fresh berries or stone fruit. Caleloa - award winning olive oils with lots of spice and grassiness. Underdog - Vegetarian and Meat dogsand other vegan goodies DePalma Farms - has been keeping me in Stone Fruit (peach and nectarine) heaven since the market arrived. Barking Valet: awesome free service for the market --staffed by volunteer dogwalkers local to the neighborhood, someone will watch your pooch for free while you shop.

This is one of our greatest amenities in the Inner Sunset! My husband and I buy at least half of our groceries here every week in order to 1) Save money, 2) Eat healthy, and 3) Support local agriculture. It's absolutely reliable that I can find an array of local produce including seasonal vegetables and fruits (strawberries year round!?), the BEST citrus, local meats (I have been buying whole chickens + sausages like chorizo and bratwursts lately), sustainably caught seafood (including salmon, oysters, and even octopus), pastured eggs, and prepared foods like local cheese, hummus, and olive oil. You can find honey that was produced by bees RIGHT IN YOUR OWN NEIGHBORHOOD! Goodbye allergies. Lastly, I find that food I buy at the farmers market is so fresh that I easily get double the time out of my veggies from when I buy at the grocery store. This is great for when I don't get to them for a while during a busy week. You can also make it fun by getting fresh pupusas (including breakfast pupusas and vegan pupusas) for breakfast, and there are at least 5 delicious coffee shops within 2 blocks door to grab some caffeine before you shop. We love the Inner Sunset Farmers Market!!

It's decent. Not too large but quaint and homey. I live within walking distance so I'm not sure if it's worth it for folks outside of Sunset to make a trek over here, but I like the vendors. Hummus Heaven is my favorite--I suspect that they put crack in their pita chips (which is $5 a bag...straight up robbery, but I'm a willing victim). Another honorable mention goes to Home Maid with their garlic cream cheese dips. Their pasta is probably really good too, but that dip makes it hard for me to want to buy or eat anything else. The pastries didn't impress me much except for Crepe & Brioche, which I think is a recent addition. Try the rum almond croissant, you won't be disappointed. The produce selection isn't bad but they're all overpriced, especially when you consider the local grocers in the area. Actually, everything in general here is overpriced except maybe the flowers.

I volunteer at the SF Botanical Gardens on Sundays, so I will make a point and stop by this farmers' market just prior as they have a good variety of stands that sell every in season fruit and vegetable, plus flowers, plus empanadas (I bought some really tasty avocadoes and apples). It's in a parking lot with ample space and cheerful ambiance. I can't wait to go back!

This market is definitely not the largest, but it is of great quality. Almost all the vendors here are certified organic and all of the produce is grown in California (most within just a few hours). What I love about this market is the diversity. You don't get many stands, but each one is well stocked. Towards the back there are vendors selling fresh made foods like hummus, empanadas, granola and cookies. The granola lady is a sweetie and the granola is delicious (not to mention vegan!). It's a small market, but the crowds get pretty big so come early (before 10am) if you want the best pick. Also, parking can get a little crazy on Saturdays around here so you may have to park a few streets down and do a 2 or 3 minute walk. Markets like this one remind me why it's so great to live in Cali and have access to such fresh and yummy food year round.

Ok, so apparently making it out to the Farmer's Market by 1 PM is a tall order for some of us. Clearly I need to sell the whole concept of morning a little harder. "AM is the new PM", "It's Morning Again in the Sunset"...something like that. Here's what I came up with (thanks to Joni M for the tune): Woke up, it was a Sunset morning, and the first thing that I heard Was the N outside my window, and the rush of passengers Heading inbound with their brunch brigades, and outbound with their baskets Oh won't you stay, It's such a nice day And there's no fog yet to mask it Woke up, it was a Sunset morning, and the first thing that I bought Was a bag of portobellos, and some scallops freshly caught There were peaches sweet as butterscotch, white nectarines to savor Oh, won't you stay And try the buffet Of a dozen almond flavors Now the old folks gossip about the storm that's on its way And the young ones send their twitter posts Of jams and toasts And plans to host A fabulous soiree Woke up, it was a Sunset morning, and at last I understood Why this cold grey stretch of Irving is my favorite neighborhood If you're hip or square you're welcome here, it's fun but not too trendy Oh won't you stay, We'll grab a latte, And a scone from Arizmendi When the market closes and the stands are put away I will bake and boil and braise tonight And every bite Will be just right If only you will stay But first you have to Wake up, it's a Sunset morning

Score!! How surprised was I to be making a morning trip to the beanery one sunday as i look across the street and notice a farmers market in the 9th street parking lot! Very surprised! and enthusiastic! This market has the usual "fare". One plus is you can get fresh baked breads from one vendor! I felt so french! I had an awesome time just walking around and picking up a few various items before heading back home. This market is great! Its small but packed with goodies! Its walking distance from my house and the people are great! A great neighborhood vibe. Loves it

My only real complaint about living in the Inner Sunset (other than the insane drivers trying to kill pedestrians) has been the lack of a farmers market. THANK YOU to everyone who put so much effort into organizing our new Inner Sunset Farmers Market! This past weekend was the Market's inaugural debut and it seemed to be a great success! There was a nice variety in produce and fresh flower vendors for such a small market - not exactly bargain prices for the produce, but comparable to what you would expect from organic food stands where the produce is fresh from the field. Personally, I prefer giving my money to the farmers than Andronico's. There were a few things missing, however. There were no local cheese or meat vendors. The only vendor advertising fresh pasta only had ravioli, which sold out fast! Obviously, that's a compliment to their ravioli, but some more variety would have been welcomed. Finally, the only bread & pastry vendors were Arizmendi (which I adore!) and a French pastry vendor. Both primarily sold pastries, not fresh loaves of bread. Overall, I think the Market is a wonderful addition to the neighborhood and I hope it stays around permanently! Oh - and I hope Sophie the Chihuahua found her owner! That little dog sure can run!

Small in size but packing in variety and goodness. You might find yourself doing a bit of stroller slalom but for some really great seasonal produce, I think it's well worth it. I have my favorite stands but I'm a total sucker for Heidi's Pies. There's other prepared foods, flowers, someone playing music, seafood, and tons and tons of produce. Great on a Sunday stroll before or after you've stopped at the other cute stores in the neighborhood.

It's small and has a limited selection of vendors (compared to larger scale ones like in Civic Center or the Ferry Building), but it's definitely a nice addition to the Inner Sunset and fun to walk to on a nice Sunday morning :) I wouldn't come here expecting to buy things off a list, but instead, just browse with an open mind and if you find something you like, buy it! We were looking for ingredients to top our homemade pizzas, but instead came home with a french baguette from the Bakers of Paris stand haha.

Amazing farmers market. It's super tiny but 100% awesome! I get the best bread here!! It has all the basics and is sure convenient to go to Homemaid which is a brand of pastas and what not..really ravioli comes here. Soo good butternut squash ravioli, and Italian sausage ravioli. Good little neighborhood farmers market

Despite living in the sunset for about a year, I have never ventured out to the farmer's market. I know. Shame on me :( I love that it's so close to my house. It wasn't super crowded like some farmer's markets, and the crowd is very friendly. There aren't an overwhelming number of booths, and each one is awesome. The quality of produce is golden and I can see myself here every Sunday. Plus, you get to feel good that you're supporting your local farmers!

If you live in the Inner Sunset and have not been to this market, you really should...well, go to this market. You'll be glad you did! A mere hop, skip, and/or jump (depending on how funnily you want people to look at you) from my apartment, this is the one aspect of the community in which my boyfriend partake every single week without fail. I think we've barely ever missed a weekend since moving here and we're not really the types to make commitments, particularly when money's tight. Fortunately, we gotta eat! And the farmer's market helps us get the goods to do so easily, ethically, and really not too expensively. It's certainly possible to drop a lot of money on the myriad of fruits, vegetables, and hand-crafted artisan products, but there's enough of a selection that, depending on your situation that week, you can either come away with a few pricier things of mind-bogglingly amazing quality (honey, jam, granola, soap), or some of the cheaper stuff...that's still of mind-bogglingly amazing quality (tomatoes and nectarines in the summer, apples in the fall, big bunches of herbs and greens pretty much all year round). All the vendors are really knowledgeable, helpful, and just goshdarn nice people. The Home Maid pasta guy has an awesome auctioneer-type voice that beckons you towards his delicious samples, the Mediterranean food people also have samples, and remember which products we've tried and always remember to tell us what's new. The jam man will very patiently remind us week after week that the kumquat marmalade will be here in the winter but would we like to try some caramel sauce in the meantime. The Asian greens people always have cheap and delicious produce all year round, and even carry obscure stuff like Thai and Indian eggplants! And now there's a really sweet tamale lady who just makes me want to buy a lot of tamales. Even more than I already wanted to buy a lot of tamales. And that's just the half of it. For what's really kind of a small farmer's market, there's a lot of good things to be said. The only downside to the whole thing is that your favorite vendors might not be there every week. I'm not complaining - that's the nature of the farmer's market! But I greatly miss seeing our favorite granola people, who have been MIA for a while, and though there's a really awesome new cheese stall, I got so attached to Spring Hill cheese that it kind of breaks my heart that they're not around anymore. I think I'll have to let the Bakers of Paris drown my sorrows in buttery croissanty goodness.

This farmers market might seem small at first glance, but it has everything you need, plus some! Coming here is a Sunday ritual for me, rain or shine. Three Crow Farms, has been my most favorite booth as of late. I am inspired by the grains and legumes they offer. I made Hutterite Beans and Wheatberries recently and I love having these delicious staples sustain me through the week. I have been trying to avoid canned beans and soups due to their BPA levels and this has been my alternative. I always thought it was difficult to prepare these heartier grains or beans, but it's really easy and worth it! ALSO - I tasted fresh eggs for the first time by purchasing their $6 a dozen batch. No joke, I am sold on fresh eggs forever. The yoke is brighter and the consistency entirely different. I also feel much better after eating them. I recommend giving them a try. I usually shop around for my veggies at the various stalls. I always ponder whether to purchase the luxurious Pomegranate juice from the stand that has great citrus to offer. Haven't done it yet, but one day I will splurge. I always by a few apples for the week - which are great! The empanadas are delicious, but a little steep in price for me. I once caught their chimichurri sauce on sale and finished it in a week on toast. I might splurge on it once in a while - it's amazing! The sorbets offered here are amazing! There is always good music playing and usually always a young kid dancing in front - so cute! Supporting local farms and produce is something I believe in and with some careful planning - the higher prices that sometimes result from purchasing from these markets can be decreased. $5 beans with veggies go a long way. This has been a great addition to our hood!

Great little neighborhood market. Fresh local honey, lots of organic choices. Cool band playing on the 9th Ave side.. Got some cherries, $5 for 1 1/3 lb.. lots of good stuff, with fair, if not bargain, prices. Got some fresh walnuts, $5 a pound..

I stumbled upon this market, which is 1 block long in a parking lot. It is great because 1) Tofu Yu is here, with amazing 100% soy capellini, soy tortillas, and really cool flavors of tofu. 2) Arizmendi has a booth. I mean, in your wildest dreams did you ever think you could score pecan sticky buns dripping with syrup from Arizmendi in a parking lot? 3) It has a great but small variety of all types of interesting vendors I don't come across in my usual farmers market haunts including City Bees honey. As if the inner sunset weren't already a great place to hang out for coffee or breakfast on a Sunday now it has an awesome little neighborhood farmer's market.

Great selection for the small size, I think. Pretty affordable produce ($2/bunch for kale, arugula, etc.). Theres a couple stands of cheese, nuts, hummus, boulani (afghan flatbread), Mexican, pie, seafood, meat. Definitely a very neighborhood feel.

I like the concept of this Farmer's Market. It's a great place to go and pick up some fresh produce and baked goods as well as socialize. A and I have been here just twice, so far, and each time we've bumped into people we know. It's kind of like the place to be for families with small children. It's very small, only two rows of booths that have a lot of space and it's located in a parking lot. In a neighborhood that already has a lack of parking spaces (including the "parklet" they created taking up a couple more parking spaces in front of Arizmendi), using a parking lot as the location, creates even a bigger shortage of parking spaces. Luckily for A and I, we just walk across the park and don't have to worry about parking any cars. Makes everything easy peasy lemon squeezy. The only booth we've bought goods from is the Arizmendi booth, which is actually kind of silly because the actual storefront is just across the street. But I guess having a booth puts all their goods out in the open so you don't have to wait in line across the street for some baked goods. Not the best Farmer's Market out there, but it's not bad for what it is.

Sometimes, Inner Sunset seems so disconnected from the rest of SF. It just seems like it's own little bubble, or cloud of fog, rather. It's nice that there is a weekly farmers market so that I can experience the farmers market without venturing very far. While it isn't very big, this farmers market does have just about everything you'd see at a larger farmer's market. There is a vendor for cheese, roasted nuts, pasta, empenadas, pita/hummus, honey, bread/pastries, and of course, the produce. My personal favorite is "hummus heaven." They give out samples and their roasted red pepper tapenade is amazing. I can devour the whole thing in one sitting. Definitely worth checking out Sunday mornings!

This is so great! My friends who live in the Sunset told me about this, and in the past month and a half I think I've only gone 1 or 2 weeks without going. Delicious fresh cider, cheese, eggs, butter and of course all the gorgeous produce... What a great option for Sunday morning grocery shopping. Yes, it's more expensive than my neighborhood markets, but that's okay. I like supporting the vendors and don't mind spending a little bit more than usual. Excellent quality of produce etc., too.

I love farmer's market and how convenient this one is for me. However, some of the items are overpriced and the people who are selling them are not happy. One of the apple stand, you really need to have good luck to have a warm face who wanted to sell you their delicious pink lady. It makes a difference when the vendor is happy, proud of their produce and enjoy what they are doing. Their apple is over priced compared to the civic center farmer's market and the one close to lake merritt, Oakland. Another example is the tamale stand, one week they did not show due to not ideal weather, another week they did not have tamale, the third week they gave me a shredded pork one when I asked specifically for the vegetable one. And it is $4 a piece, at civic center farmer's market or old town Oakland farmer's market, you get $5 warm tamales (two of them) with salsa and chips. This one, I had to ask for some salsa and she had salad there without offering any of that. My point is: why do I want to spend more money, and get less food, from unhappy people? Not a good deal. From now on, I only get organic kales and other leafy veggies from this farmer' market when I am too lazy to go to whole food.

Unbelievable. There is a vendor that sells jams, and, fittingly enough, that is their name - "JAM". Try the "M&B" flavor -- Apricot and Sour Cherry -- it will blow your mind. A smile very quickly came to my face, and my mom used to make the most ridiculous homemade plum jam. This stuff is a joy. Also, there is a fantastic fruit and dried nut vendor there as well - I'll get their name shortly. The fruit and courtesy of their proprietors was fantastic. Now I will support this market regularly and enthusiastically. Dang that jam was good. --- quick update: the fruit stand is named Rodin Farms - they're out of Modesto. Seriously generous people :)

I LOVE farmer's markets and I'm so excited they have this farmer's market in the inner sunset. There's quite a few vendor stands in this parking lot. Its only open on Sundays which is great because parking is free in the city on Sundays! We stopped by early around 9am and they were just opening up. We were able to try some of the food from vendors that were set up early. We stopped by Mediterranean Foods and tried their avocado and cilantro hummus, spicy black bean chipotle hummus and artichoke hummus. All was delicious!!! But we walked away with garlic pita chips and artichoke hummus dip. We also stopped by a vendor that sold organic dates. They were so juicy and sweet. You could definitely taste the difference between this and store bought prepackaged food. The market had a lot of fresh organic juices and fruits and produce as well. i'm so happy we woke up early to check this out!

Great farmers market. Such an awesome variety of vendors stuffed into that narrow parking lot. Some of my favorites include: -Fish guys, Danny and Grandpa have so many kinds of fresh seafood -Springhill cheese - nice selection of cows milk cheese, goat cheese, butter, and more -Arizmendi with the amazing coffee cake, focaccia cheese bread, and everything else -And my ultimate favorite, Underdog. They sell different organic goodies. Mainly organic variety sausage packs (meat, vegetarian, and vegan) and GLUTEN FREE baked goods and sweets! Some of the awesome GLUTEN FREE treats they make are Chocolate Beet Cake (amazing, but sells out before i get there sometimes), Blondie Bars, Carrot Cake, different cupcakes and more. So good, can't get enough. Another plus is that I hear this farmers market may continue into next year.

I was excited to go to the inner sunset farmers' market and thought I might substitute the far away Alemany market. Yes, there was music from the corner, sunny day, happy go lucky... Nonetheless, there were only a few vendors (it's a very small space) and expensive ones too. I left without buying anything. I guess that if you bring very few things to sell, market them as organic, have many people around, you can sell them for at least double the normal price. Happy vendors! I expected to see all kinds of farmers and not have the Ferry Plaza type of market. It's good to stare, mingle, taste but not for grocery shopping. It was a good initiative though. I add a star for the organizers. Won't pass by any time soon!

A great local FM put on by food folk and the ISPN's great outreach. It is a weekly anchor for the hood and community. Great vendors and fun to meet and greet my fellow ISers. I am also eating better. The price point tends to be a bit high, but worth it to have this here. Meet for an Epenada and some gumbo while picking up some heirloom tomatoes and strawberries, Yum! It's a walk to farmer's market that is "park your dog/bike" friendly and on or near 6 different MUNI lines.

I was surprised at just how tiny this farmers market is. It's very limited and there is pretty much one stand for produce, one stand for flowers, one stand for dates, etc. Not much variety in terms of choice. With that being said - the vendors were great and very nice! Not to mention - the prices are WAY better than the ferry building. As someone whom has recently moved to the city, I was pleasantly surprised. I came away with items from the home-made soap stand, empanadas, bread and fresh vegetables and everything was great! Will definitely stop by again if I'm around the neighborhbood on a Sunday but it isn't a farmers market that I would totally go out of my way for. Just as a side note - the market is SUPER accessible with the N line and the 43 and 6 buses making their way down there. Parking can be tough if you are coming from outside of the neighborhood.
