The Vista Farmers Market is open every Saturday from 8:00 am until 12 noon — every month, every week, every Saturday — at the County Courthouse, 325 South Melrose Drive just South of Highway 78 in Vista, California, USA
There are over 50 farmers at the market, a few prepared food vendors, and a handful of hot food vendors, and a few crafts sold by those that made them. The Vista market has a focus on farmers and will always maintain priority for farmers that produce crops that are needed in the market.
The Vista Farmers Market is the first in the county, and one of the first in the State of California. It has been operating since 1981 and is a central gathering place for the region.
Most of the farmers, who are certified by the county to be the actual growers of what they sell, are VERY local . . . the majority from Vista and nearby communities.
