Santa Clara Farmers Market — Attraction in Santa Clara

Today I found an amazing variety of fresh produce — tender winter melons, fuzzy gourds, Middle Eastern zucchini, Indian bitter melon, and adorable baby eggplants. Everything looked super fresh, vibrant, and picked at just the right time. The prices were very fair too (like $2/lb for gourds), and the farmers were incredibly friendly and helpful — some even shared their cooking tips!

The vibe is super laid-back and local. There’s a small-town feel to the place, with people chatting, sampling, and really enjoying the morning. There’s also fresh coffee and baked goods nearby if you’re in the mood for a snack. Parking is usually pretty easy too.

Whether you’re shopping for the week or just want to stroll and explore, this market is a fantastic way to start...

In March there was a spontaneous Easter egg hunt for the toddlers and a father daughter singing with guitar.

We got the requisite fresh produce from the local farmers and also enjoyed some Thai Indian and Mexican cuisine. Here’s a snap of the before after for the breakfast burritos! You can’t go wrong here. Oh yeah, beakmans bakery is here with their pies and pastries as well as...

Awesome small local market in Santa Clara on Benton. Highly recommended especially during summers. Great produce by friendly sellers, though little expensive than Walmart or other markets.

Live music, hot popcorn, falafel, boba, Indian food and lots of other activities around keeping the environment lively. Plenty of parking available in Franklin Square parking lot. Overall a good place to hangout on Saturday mornings. Plenty of food options in and around...
