Sunday Marin Farmers' Market — Attraction in San Rafael

As a small business owner passionate about vintage, I was deeply disappointed by my experience with this market and its owner. Despite presenting a well-curated selection of quality items, I was quickly dismissed as a vendor without any real opportunity to showcase the full scope of my offerings.

What’s most frustrating is that the decision seemed to be made based solely on personal judgment, not the actual value or uniqueness of my inventory. There was no genuine dialogue, no request for more details or samples—just an abrupt rejection. This kind of gatekeeping not only discourages new vendors, but also undermines the diversity and spirit that vintage markets are supposed to foster.

It’s disheartening to see a space that claims to support creatives and small businesses operate with such a narrow and exclusionary mindset. A truly inclusive market should be open to discovering fresh talent, not pre-judging vendors based on surface impressions or assumptions.

The Sunday Marin Farmer's Market is a must-visit for any foodie or lover of fresh, local produce. Despite the crowds and potential parking challenges, this market is definitely worth the effort to get there.

With an impressive selection of vendors and food trucks, there's something for everyone at this market. The variety of local produce available is truly impressive, with everything from crisp greens to juicy berries and ripe tomatoes on offer.

One standout at the Sunday Marin Farmer's Market is the rotisserie chicken and potatoes.
