"This Sunday market brings together farmers and local businesses of all stripes, along with musicians and food trucks. The Artship here is a family favorite. Made from a renovated storage container, the colorful space acts as a library, an art studio, and a holiday celebration spot for visitors of all ages. Pick up veggies for cooking at home, but don’t leave without grabbing pan-fried bao from Xiao Xiao Buns, a slice of Brothers Pizza, or one of the other neighborhood favorites at the market, too." - Vox Creative

"Partnering with Ramirez, Outer Sunset Mercantile is hosting the free-to-attend Dia de Los Muertos party at 37th and Ortega avenues on November 1 from 6 to 9 p.m.; the Mercantile will feature vendors from its weekly market plus contacts from San Francisco State and a number of Bay Area food creators and producers that Ramirez has invited." - Paolo Bicchieri
"I learned that Sunset Mercantile, which organizes the farmers market and is led by director Angie Petitt, alleges that Saint Ignatius College Preparatory School is reneging on a deal reached between the two organizations, and Petitt says the school claims it did not involve the right people at SI in their meetings." - Paolo Bicchieri
"I'm alarmed to learn that, despite being one of San Francisco’s most popular Sunday food destinations, the Outer Sunset Farmers’ Market & Mercantile may be forced to move after a dispute with St. Ignatius College Preparatory. The school asked that the market, held every Sunday and seasonally on Wednesday nights on 37th Avenue between Ortega and Quintara streets, be shut down completely for three upcoming Sundays and that the market contract be reduced from two blocks to one for an additional seven Sundays. Organizer Angie Petitt says those changes would have a “catastrophic impact” on the market’s sustainability—this small organization runs on a tight budget and the market serves as a crucial venue for dozens of farmers, small businesses, and organizations—so foregoing or halving income from those 10 market days could render it financially unsustainable; she has written to Supervisor Gordon Mar hoping for a compromise but, as of Tuesday, there were no plans for the parties to meet, and she may have to consider moving the market or shutting it down completely." - Lauren Saria
