First certified farmers market in California
It started with 3 farmers and a parking lot. Today, 90 vendors gather every Saturday under the Davis sun, welcoming 500,000 visitors a year. The Davis Farmers Market turns 50 in 2026, and it is the heart of a community that values what is real, what is local, and what is built to last.
From 3 to 90
What started as a handful of local farmers in 1976 became California's first certified farmers market and a national model for community agriculture.
