When it first started, they did not have food vendors just artisans and produce vendors, but now they have a steady line of food vendors, including Seven Seas Roasting Company's Coffee Truck on the southern end of the market. That being said, on the north side of the market you will fine amazing nitro ice cream and churros from Potion 7 Creamery. The market includes a good number of organic produce stalls, plant stalls, and live music as well. It's a great market, with a number of small businesses along the street. Street parking is available and a pay parking lot on the west side. According to the city of La Mesa, "The La Mesa Farmers' Market is held every Friday from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. on La Mesa Blvd. between Palm Ave. and 4th St." (City of La Mesa, 2023)

SDSU FARMERS MARKET @ SDSU…read more Parking is available in the P3 and P4 lots, and you can also park in P12, though all of them have fees during the day so I'd recommend checking the rates beforehand. The farmers market happens every Thursday, featuring small businesses and food vendors, all set up outside. I really enjoy the variety of vendors; there's food I've seen before, as well as food trucks. The market is located near the library and bookstore area, mostly around the main SDSU campus. The food is decent somewhat overpriced for what it is but it's worth visiting to support these local businesses. They offer items like boba and really good tacos. The service is fairly quick, encouraging a fast-paced in-and-out experience. Overall, the market has a great ambiance, with plenty of outdoor seating where you can relax and enjoy your food.

I wish that there were more farmer's stands and there were some more items at affordable prices so that it would become more popular. I want to see more customers and more vendors. I don't want the vendors to leave because they're not making any money and I don't want customers to visit once and not come back because they can't afford to shop there. If you love locally grown organic fresh veggies, I would recommend supporting the Lemon Grove Farmer's Market.

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.

Spring Valley Swap Meet, you deserve my 5 stars!! Why. you…read moreask?! From my many visits to Spring Valley Swap Meet, I can see you guys got it all under control, from directing traffic because it looks like a mess but you got this, the staff clears the foot and car traffic real quick. The parking gets very crowded but be patient, you will find a stall, after we parked our rental car, I was worried about how I would make it across safely without getting hit, but we made it across thanks to the attendant for directing traffic like junior JPO's. What can you do with $1. FREE parking- admission to the Spring Valley Swap Meet, the greatest deal ever!! Get a stamp if you need to re-enter. This Spring Valley Swap Meet is SUPER HUGE and is outdoors located in Spring Valley, of course. They operate only on Saturday and Sundays from 7:00 am - 3:00 pm, wide variety of vendors selling everything from antiques, vintage items, to clothes, electronics, furniture, mortuary plots ( I saw 2 different business offering this) household goods, plants, and local produce. There are food vendors, bar for alcohol near entrance, and entertainment too! I enjoy coming out here to the swap meet, we try to squeeze it in despite so much to do but so little time. I just love to look at and shop for plants and also get the cheap, colorful fruits for the hubby! I like to browse and at the same time get our steps in. What did I get during this recent to Spring Valley, some new with tag storage, household items from Target, Toys for my friend's daughter, and fruits! The fruits are so cheap, strawberry for $2. a pack or 3/$5., cherries $2. lb. even avocados! I wish prices are this low back on Oahu. Every time I see the chayote fruit, its Mexican kine with pokey thorns, gives me chicken skin, how would you remove the skin without getting hurt? Although the swap meet is outdoors, I can imagine the heat during the Summer, we normally visit during the Fall/Spring time so the weather is much cooler. It does get hot towards the afternoon but we are out of there by then. This swap meet is huge so we normally don't go around the entire place, we give ourselves a time limit of one hour, quick stop in and go! I look forward to visiting Spring Valley SM again!

They have a variety of fresh produce and dry goods. I love coming here to see what they have on special and their deals. I come here at least once a month and I stock up on certain items. They have updated their hours and they are open on Monday- Saturday from 7am to 6pm. I have tried calling them to ask a question and their phone number does not work, I recommend looking on yelp and making sure they are open. The employees there are absolutely nice and helpful. They let you know when their next shipment is coming depending on the certain item you are looking for. If you haven't been here yet, you should check out this cute and quiet farmers outlet.

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.

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.

Finally got to try this at the Vegan Oktoberfest at First Friday Night Market at Grossmont Center, my wife and I wanted to this it out when they had their weekly pop up at Sepentine Cider but that ended before we had a chance to get down there. Food was very tasty, they do a great job of creating a vegan alternative to Chinese food that looks legit and has the very similar flavors and textures, less the meat! We tried the Gua Bao Buns first, PERFECT! Not sure how they do it, but these look like almost like real pork belly, and flavors and textures were great! Definitely took the spotlight because this is a dish you wouldn't normally expect to look and taste this good. We also had the Sweet & Sour Pork, super tasty also, but it's a type of food that is more expected at a stand like this. So glad we finally got to try it, definitely worth it and will keep an eye out for their next pop up.
