About this event
Experience the cultural heart of Oakland at the multi-sensory Grand Lake Farmers Market. Hosting over 40 distinct regional multi-generational farms, 30 specialty food purveyors, and a rotating circle of local craft artisans, this lively market wraps the park grounds in a tapestry of sights and smells. Patrons flock here to buy organic California stone fruits, fresh-cut flowers, coastal seafood, and baked artisan breads. More than just a grocery run, it serves as a massive weekend lunch bazaar. Shoppers can load their baskets, pick up gourmet prepared treats like hot dim sum, Eritrean pour-overs, or local rotisserie items, and layout picnic blankets across the palm tree lawns to enjoy live acoustic music sets
