Farmer's Market

A trip to San Luis Obispo would not be complete without a stop at the world-famous Downtown San Luis Obispo Farmers’ Market, happening every Thursday night, or the Saturday morning market at Madonna Plaza Shopping Center. Food is something to celebrate in San Luis Obispo, where local farms and agriculture thrive and grow fresh, flavorful produce all year-round.

In the heart of the city, Downtown San Luis Obispo Farmers’ Market takes over Higuera Street on Thursdays, spanning 5 blocks of downtown. If you aren’t in town for Thursday, kick off the weekend right with a trip to the Saturday morning Farmers’ Market to round up your snacks and goodies, happening from 8:00 – 10:45 a.m. These farmers’ markets are a culmination of weekly harvests plus a full-on foodie festival for the community, featuring live music, local craft goods and more.

Downtown San Luis Obispo Farmers’ Market takes place every Thursday from 6:00 – 9:00 p.m., except Thanksgiving Day or if it is raining. Starting in July through September, the Downtown SLO Farmers’ Market will expand onto Chorro Street with beer and wine in addition to the local favorite, Giuseppe’s wood fired pizza.
