SFoodie's 2012 Farmers' Market Schedule and Map
View San Francisco Farmers Markets 2012 in a larger map
Despite concern over the possibility that we may soon have too many farmers markets, the San Francisco farmers' market scene remains as robust as ever. The last few years have seen a major proliferation of neighborhood markets, and even local hospitals have taken small markets under their wings. Consequently, the distribution is so broad it's no inconvenience to hit one up, even on a workday.
Surely a major contributor to the markets' viability is that they now crop up nearly every day of the week. That said, the lion's share of markets is on weekends and midweek (pro tip: make that doctor's appointment for a Wednesday), so make sure you don't have an urgent need for stinging nettles on a Monday or Friday.
This year we're seeing an increase in small weekday markets targeted to the downtown and SoMa crowd, including Yerba Buena Lane, Second Street, and Mint Plaza, the latter of which is the city's sole Friday market. As of press time, Monday's Fremont Street market does not have an opening schedule published.
We've mapped out all of San Francisco farmers' markets, using a spring-y palette to help you identify the day the market occurs: pink pins for Saturday markets; purple for Sunday; orange for Monday; yellow for Tuesday; turquoise for Wednesday; green for Thursday; and blue for Friday. You'll find a full schedule of markets, organized by day, after the jump.
