Allied Gardens Sunday Market

Are you looking for a farmers’ market with something extra? The Allied Gardens Sunday Market often has special events, such as free yoga, live music, art walks and even a petting zoo. It isn’t difficult to see why this farmers market is one the of Allied Gardens, Del Cerro, La Mesa and San Carlos communities’ newest and fastest-growing farmers’ markets. Aside from the fun family-friend events, this outdoor market features more than 100 locally-sourced vendors that sell a wide range of organic produce, food, flowers and handmade artisan items.

If you’re interested in a potentially smaller farmers’ market than some of the big ones, this is the one for you, because it’s still growing and some reviewers have pointed out that some days it can be somewhat small. Walk around the farmers’ market with your whole family and snack on ready-to-eat and made-to-order foods, which may include pastries, empanadas, tacos, pirogies, BBQ, donuts and acai bowls. Afterward, explore the beautiful area by hiking Cowles Mountain or taking a walk around Lake Murray.

This farmers’ market is held every Sunday from 10:00 A.M. until 2:00 P.M. and runs year-round. Find it in Lewis Middle School’s front parking lot at 5170 Greenbrier Ave., San Diego, CA.
