California Coast Farmers Markets

Where to find Farmers Markets on the California Coast

As I travel up and down the coast researching California road trip ideas, I keep a lookout for coastal farmers markets.  Remember, these are just the Farmers Markets on the California Coast, not the inland cities.

I post what I find here for fellow California HWY1 roadtrippers who like organic, locally sourced foods. Whether you’re a local yourself, or a visitor looking for a delicious snack or healthy produce to take back to your hotel or short term rental kitchen you may find this resource helpful.

Before you head out, verify the current dates and times with the farmers market you plan to visit. It’s impossible for me to always keep everything on this list up to date, so if you find something has changed, please let me know and I’ll update the info here.
