The San Francisco Ferry Market is a gorgeous place to stroll around in if you are in the San Francisco Bay Area for any length of time.
The Ferry Plaza Farmers Market:
“is a California certified farmers market operated by the Center for Urban Education about Sustainable Agriculture“ ~CUESA
The market is open Tuesday and Saturday.
Below are spotlights on a few of their unique vendors in this city building, such as the Far West Fungi shop, and organics from the Farm Fresh to You store.
The Farm Fresh to You store includes an “organic farm’s quality seasonal organic produce – harvested fresh from the farm in the Capay Valley and shipped directly to the Ferry Building. To insure that store customers always have the best selection of local organic produce they purchase from other local organic growers.”
The produce from Farm Fresh to You is known around town as an acurate representation of the best locally grown organic produce available to the Bay Area.
Another interesting vendor at the SF Ferry Market Building is Far West Fungi, a mushroom bar.
This “one-stop destination for mushrooms carries a wide selection of culinary mushrooms (both fresh and dried), medicinal mushroom supplements, and even mushroom logs to grow your own at home.”
