Grand Opening of North Beach’s Farmers Market

Last Sunday, June 13th, the North Beach Farmers’ Market opened with the support of hundreds of San Francisco residents and tourists.  It was a pleasant, sunny San Francisco day for the grand opening. North Beach is a newbie in the Farmer’s Market scene and this market was the perfect size to ease the neighborhood into the shopping experience. This market is the smallest I have seen in the city, but it offers most of what you would expect. Freshly baked breads and pastries, olives and olive oil, cheese, honey, abundant fruit and vegetables, eggs, brightly colored flowers.  Though, don’t expect to find coffee or hot food trucks here. But then again, you are in North Beach! You can easily walk over to one of the many cafes for your daily fix of java! Take that coffee and freshly baked goods to Washington Square park and enjoy!

Please show your support of this market, by visiting every Sunday. Be sure to sign the petition, requesting to extend the market until early fall.
