There is live music, bakers, cheese, artisans, Maddie's Mudd - the best cafe latte - oh, and of course, vegetables and fruits and plants. It's a hoot. Go.

Large selection of products, but sadly due to the mind set because this is Marin and the vendor feel they can take advantage of the customers the prices are too high.

I liked this market. It had a good distribution of fresh breads, produce, and cooked food to allow me to wonder around and be entertained on a Sunday morning. I was able to score a big bag of blood oranges and a fresh almond croissants.

This farmers market is rated one of the top ones in the nation. The market is held on Thursdays and Sundays with the Sunday one having more vendors and local musicians playing music as you stroll through the many awesome fruit, vegetable, dessert, and artist aisles. You can't find food fresher than this. You must go if you are interested... More

Excellent place for organic produce, sustainable seafood, humanely raised meats, dairy products, good food carts, entertainment. Some of the best farmers come to this market. Parking is generally not too bad.

This is a top-flight Farmer's Market, with year-round, all-weather service. The produce is of course fresh and delightful, seasonal and with great variety and it also excels in having a good selection of food trucks of various styles and ethnicities (the Fallafel truck and the Aidel's Sausages are two of my favs) and a great selection of baked goods, crafts,...

One of the biggest and best farmer's markets I've been to. Wonderful produce, meat, flowers, oils, honey...you name it. It is expensive for an outdoor market, however, and VERY crowded.

Fresh produce and helpful happy vendors. It was a great time. The apple juice vendor was a particular highlight, he brought his juice to market in a '52 Chevy truck and the olive oil tasting experience was great.
