I've been a Reviewer for a long time, and it takes a lot to truly blow me away, but my first trip…read moreto the Chico Farmers Market yesterday did exactly that. If you care about regenerative agriculture and nutrient density, this is the gold standard for Northern California. The absolute standout for me was MyHarvestValley.com . I'm a huge advocate for soil health, and their regenerative walnuts are a masterclass in what happens when you treat the land right. You can actually taste the difference, it's not just a snack; it's high-quality fuel. I ended up spending quite a bit of time there just appreciating the transparency of their process. Beyond the walnuts, the entire market is a treasure trove: The Meat & Produce: I was struck by the selection of properly raised meats and organic produce. Finding proteins raised with this much integrity is rare, and the variety of healthy eating choices made it easy to load up for the week. The Nursery Finds: I didn't expect to be scouted for my garden, but I saw some of the prettiest Japanese maple starts I've ever laid eyes on. The health and structure of those starts were stunning. The Vibe: It's rare to find a market that balances such a wide variety of specialty goods while maintaining that authentic, community-focused energy. This isn't just a place to shop; it's where you go to support the people doing the hard work of regenerative farming. I'm officially a regular.

Wonderful farmers market…read more EBT!!! First thing I have to mention, ebt is amazing here. Compared to Old Oakland farmers market which had a VERY long line for the ebt exchange. Over here, there was not a single line. The lady also explains to you how the ebt works but I can explain as well from what I understand. The lady will ask you how much you want to exchange, this is wherr I dont understand too much but she mentions a limit of 15$ and you can go over the limit but it goes over? Im not sure. I just did 15$. She gives you the device, you swipe, she gives you receipt and the coins.... AND some bills. Each coin and each bill is equal to 1 dollar. And idk if this was an accident but I swiped 15$, on my acc, lost 15$, but she gave me 15$ in coins AND 15$ in bills. So anyways, if this isnt a mistake, this means ebt gives you twice as much as you pay for in farmers market The bills as she explains it, only works on fruits and veggies. The coins work on anything that isnt a hot food. Lots of places to buy some fruits. Some places had a lot huge selection of heirloom tomatoes while some smaller selection. 2 stalls that sold figs. Of course no shortage of fruits and veggies over here For hot foods, tamale stall that also sold other dishes, burrito truck, empanada stall, They also have a coffee stall cause of course. Apparently people talk about chai tea, idk exactly where it is but I did see people walking with a light colored drink. The crowds arent as bad as people mention. I went on Saturday in the morning at 10am. Still a lot of people but as someone who's been to Shibuya Japan, its nothing at all. There are 4 long lanes to walk on and each surrounded by stalls I couldnt show it in the pic but I also bought a fruit danish for 5$ that I ate as I walked around. Absolutely delicious danish, the bread part was crispy outside but cheey inside. (Usually grocery stores danish can be more on the softer side) 5/5 ebt totally worth it

Unless that has changed or untrue there needs to be better display on WHERE the entrance to the Indoor market is. ​

We heard rumors about his sweet, organic carrots and after rallying with him on his home turf, we can attest, "Those aren't rumors, they are the absolute truth." These carrots are palate pleasing in their naked glory! Find Matthew's nurtured babies at the Saturday, Chico Farmers' Market or if you live in the area, sign up for a weekly organic produce box.
