I was excited about and really looking forward to attending the Farmer's Market at the Ferry Building. I'm a foodie and the thought of looking through fresh, ripe California produce that we normally get shipped green or flavorless to Canada was well, as exciting as finding a silk skirt at Banana Republic for $25.00 marked down from $125.00, but that's a different story. The Farmer's Market runs from May to October, and is Tuesdays 10 - 2 pm and Thursdays, 4-8 pm; and Saturdays and Sundays. The Thursday Night Market is really fun as the vendors are inside the Ferry Building, and there is music and there's a festive atmosphere.
What we liked: GL Alifieri Farms -- They sell farmer grown fruit and nuts; the best thing to buy are the almonds and almond butter. The almond butter is so fresh that it has not separated ( apparently almond butter or other natural nut butters that have separated are quite old) Make sure to buy the honey-roasted almonds, they taste so buttery and good. Frog Hollow Farms -- The taste of tree-ripened organic peaches, so wonderful you'll think of the other word that starts with "org". They also have a shop in the Ferry Building open daily We also bought Black Mission Figs, so ripe and sweet they were cracking, tomatoes that were as sweet as plums, and slices of sun-dried tangerines -- you eat them skin and all! The vendors are very generous with samples, so if you want, you'll have lunch or dinner covered.

It’s finally here! April 26, 2003 marked the opening of the permanent home for the Embarcadero Farmers Market at the new plaza of the historic Ferry Building!! In addition to the Farmers Market, a collection of elite, artisanal food shops and restaurants have begun to fill the spaces inside transforming the Ferry Building into a great public market in the tradition of Seattle’s Pike Place Market, Vancouver’s Granville Island and New York’s Grand Central Terminal.
bread, fruits and vegetables, cheese, seafood, wine, meat, tea, olive oil, chocolates, kitchen supplies, etc.
How much you spend will be up to you! Leave a Comment Theme: Food and DrinkDirections: The Ferry Building is located at the begining of Market Street.Website: http://www.ferryplazafarmersmarket.com/
