So much more room for the vendors and buyers. The verity of sellers easily doubled which brings in more folks, win win. Salinas Valley being the Salad Bowl the veggie and fruit vendors are disproportionate too the food and gift vendors. Hoping that will change. Living easily within walking distance this is a perfect Saturday morning walk. Last words...community.

Last day at the Natividad hospital location. Many thank to the first harvest wonderful staff, I learned so much. They want seniors, like me, to eat their fresh veggies and encourage us to buy all the fruits and veggies. Such a fabulous program! Kudos to your kindness! Great adventure to cruise around and check things out, especially if you are vaccinated and want a project.Enjoy!

From desserts to fresh breads (ad astra, Otto's) and great lasagna and pizza. And always the friendliest service! One of my favorite local businesses.

Pretty good mixture of fresh produce vs. other food and drink vendors. Our favorites were the Golden Ox homemade Chinese Dumplings ($16 for 10 dumplings , not counting the 4 samples they gave our party which won us over), and we also loved getting cheese at the Cheese Whiz (also after free samples haha!) Also lots of cute products like stickers and plushes, and lots of Latino food too. I think it has less fresh produce than other farmers markets in the East Bay because there's probably lots of fresh produce readily available in this area being close to central valley. I also love that a lot of the businesses along the streets behind the vendors are also open (like coffee shops etc), a really cute family or date to do on a Saturday morning. All the vendors we interacted were super kind.

With so many other farmers markets in the country and Santa Cruz County too Marina is not my go too or favorite. Two of the vegetable vendors couldn't break a fifty. So I just moved on. Super majority of food vendors are serving Mexican food which is great...if that's what you want. No diversity. I get it, it's not about me, I'm sure many count on this market. Last words...it's there.

Well, it's always easy for me to find this farm's bounty in going to the Ferry Farmers' market on Tuesdays and Saturdays. They started participating in the market about two years ago and, at first, I mainly only bought strawberries (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=JO1Cnr4pkcFCVEEfFkGKYA&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q) from them. Over the past eighteen months, I've become an avid fan of their vegetables especially their cauliflower (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=gC_FKh5f_f7M2Gj7ZbUB4A&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q), cabbage, broccoli, and broccolini. I generally cook them within the week to preserve their freshness in flavors and textures, after all they are organic. And, when tomatoes are back in season, check whether they offer their self made salsas. They have become one of my weekly and sometimes twice weekly shopping stops at the Ferry Building. Do look for their stand by the main building entrance on the north side on Tuesdays and along the south driveway at Saturdays.

Once we found Green Thumb Organics we never looked back and have been with them for years. They have provided us with a yummy, healthy, beautiful, environmentally friendly bounty of food over the past few years and we have loved all of the spectacular fare that their hard work has prepared. Maria and Rudy are the kindest most hardworking and thoughtful people you will ever encounter. Their adversity and hard work is impressive having helped them adapt and persevere through some extremely difficult situations including the COVID shutdown and the recent floods. Rudy, himself, not only works the farm, but every week drives hundreds of miles and delivers his hard work with a beautiful, heartfelt smile on his face - always. Maria answers every email and addresses every question or ordering platform navigation challenges that one may run into. Their homemade salsa and marinara are scrumptiously spectacular! I literally buy 5 jars of salsa at a time every couple of weeks. Their prices are very low for what you receive. This is the last CSA you will ever need. Stop shopping and sign up with them. You'll feel better supporting a local, small business while being economical and environmental, helping you and/or your family's physical and mental health.
