    Unicorn Elote over at By.Rosaline food stand ($8)
    Jessica S.

    As the name implies, this market occurs the first Friday of every month in the parking lot right in front of Anthem. My boyfriend and I randomly stumbled into this extravaganza having driven by and noticing the throngs of people gathering in excitement. To have discovered it was a vegan food fair! Didn't think we'd actually jaunt on through, nor would I have fathomed even ordering anything ... until I saw the *Unicorn Elote* at the By.Rosaline stand along with people nearby holding this ridiculously vibrant and cheery snack! I had just been craving elote at the taco place we had eaten at, so how completely perfect! Despite its vivid, dessert-esque, and flamboyant appearance, this is elote through and through. So buttery with a pop of zest, vegan cheese, and colorful tajin. Yum! I've seen rainbow elote before, but it was the first ever knowing about a 'unicorn' of an elote. A unicorn I found indeed! The caveat of these vegan food fairs is that they fall under that illustrious 'hipster' category therefore everything is a bit expensive. That magical, cheesy elote did end up costing $8! There were other vendors around, some selling vegan Mexican food, soaps, trinkets, etc. Just about the happiest little festival to have stumbled upon in North Park. You should pay it a visit if you just so happen to be vegan-curious. And, come to think of it, TODAY is the first Friday of September, so what perfect timing!

    A destination night market for San Diego! The curated rotation of vendors perfectly balances savory and sweet for a full night of food. The vibes are always great and the music is jamming. The non-profit organizers, Vegan in San Diego, have truly created a magical, ethical, kind gift for the San Diego community.

    Recently started adopting a primarily plant based diet. It's nice to have a variety of options to choose from in one place. Tried a few vendors and so far no complaints. These vendors have it nailed down and are producing wonderfully tasty eats!

It's fun to go and find new varieties of fruit you didn't know existed. I do with some Pitaya was buyable but we got other items. We got some tacos, refreshing drinks and plants. We always go for the plants. I got 5 tomato plants and they're thriving. $4 each! Usually you can work on deals. We go to explore and get sunglasses and anything for tourists coming to visit. MAKE SURE IF YOU BRING YOUR DOG IT ISNT WALKING ON THE HOT PAVEMENT or I'll definitely judge you. It's hot as hellllll there. Keep the dogs at home or in your bag or wearing shoes.

Admission is very affordable--only $1 per person (I remember when it used to be about fifty cents They're typically open early morning and close around 2 PM on weekends, and they're only open on Saturdays & Sundays. What I love most about this place is the variety. There are rows and rows of vendors selling just about everything you can imagine. From fruit trees and fresh produce to yard sale treasures, mattresses, furniture, and even brand-new items it's like a giant treasure hunt. If you enjoy browsing and negotiating, many vendors are open to bargaining on prices. There are also plenty of food and drink stands if you need a snack while walking around. The restrooms are available and surprisingly clean and well stocked. Overall, it's a great place to shop, explore, and definitely get your steps in because there's so much to see. I'd highly recommend checking it out if you enjoy swap meets or bargain hunting.

    I find it outrageous that most of the vegetable stands are allowed to participate in a CERTIFIED…read moreFarmers' Market and NOT ACCEPT the california Department Of Agriculture "Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program" card. As seniors it is a huge help to receive a $50 card to buy produce ONLY at certified Farmers' Markets and arrive the day before Thanksgiving and be told they don't accept the card or they aren't signed up to receive it. Card expires Nov 30 so we will lose our $50. Couldn't even buy eggs. Farmers complain people are unsupportive yet how can we support them if they are greedy and cheat the Government programs? I will make sure to never set foot in a farmers' market again. I will full heartedly support overseas farmers from now on. Let's see who buys your overpriced produce. If they don't comply with the program they should NOT be allowed to sell there. Shame on you all. I find this to be un American. So much for making America great again and buying local and home grown! Also there are only 3 stands of produce and the rest are retail trinkets, NOT a real Farmers' Market.

Fun stuff and artisans. The market is expanding and adding new vendors all the time. It maybe smaller then most markets, but close and Kid friendly. We will be going back next Wednesday. What nice way to enjoy the middle of a busy week, with a casual walk and shop, bit to eat, a little music, my kind of "Date Nite" to finish out the week. Affordable friendly, easy access and productive- purchasing fresh edibles for the Week end.

I've been to this farmers market over the years - they stopped having it for a while and it was brought back by the ASCENDKemet Collective. This last time I went there was a vendor selling coffee/pastries, one selling pupusas, one selling pizza, two vendors selling green leafy vegetables (like collard greens, kale and bitter leaf), and Bernardino Loera Farms - notable for the seasonal avocado varieties they sell like fuerte, zutano, bacon - whenever the season for those comes up. This one is in a convenient location near the City Heights Library, a nice little park, and an El Super. There is parking on Wightman on the other side of Fairmount Avenue as well as other side streets in the area.

In normal times, Bikes del Pueblo (see my review) brings a bike repair stand. Hopefully they will be returning to CHFM soon. Tips: - Free parking at Price Garage on 43rd Street. - Follow them on Facebook and Instagram for their fresh picks of the day. - Foodshed's Mobile Market sells produce in front of the City Heights Community Garden from 9 to 11 am on Saturdays. It's located across 43rd Street from CHFM. - Bring cash.
