Downtown City Farmers Market San Francisco

Seasonal delights

Nadine from San Francisco

"The "Downtown City Farmers Market" is a San Francisco market in a historic location. What I like the most about it is the friendliness of the farmers!"

Two days a week, UN Plaza is transformed into the only independent non-profit Farmers Market in San Francisco. For the people, by the people.

It's historic. The United Nations really started right here. It's a really busy space. People flow through on their way to work at City Hall, the Courthouse, and the various artistic venues around civic center.

What I like most is the friendliness of most of the farmers. After a few visits, they know your preferences and make recommendations. You'll find things that locals love. The olive oil is fresh and amazing right out of the bottle. Almonds are available almost year round. Everything is colourful and delicious. Persimmons are available! And, of course, there are avocados. It's California. We love avocados and kale on everything!

Here, you can buy local and eat local. California cuisine at its best!

Getting to the public library by navigating my way through a sea of Dead Heads in front of what's now the Bill Graham Auditorium. Nearly falling off the Golden Gate Bridge while biking across too fast on a very wet and foggy morning. My city has a both a buzz and a hum. That's me too. A little intensity is great when...

Coffee in the Park

Coffee and park goers

I love coming to Alamo Square in San Francisco and getting a yummy park coffee from Lady Falcon Coffee Club and their converted 1940s bread truck!

"Pearl 6161" is a restaurant in San Francisco in an old laundromat. Its Mediterranean-meets-California vibe, the high ceiling and the tiles... I'm in love!
