The Aptos Farmers Market has earned statewide and national recognition, including being voted America’s Favorite Farmers Market in California three years in a row (2011–2013). Coastal Living Magazine has also named the Aptos market one of The Coast’s Best Farmers Markets.
Shoppers come for the exceptional selection—and stay for the connection. With nearly 90 vendors, the market features top-quality California-grown produce, flowers, and specialty foods from small regional farmers and artisans. Many vendors are certified organic or use sustainable practices, offering everything from fresh fruits and vegetables to eggs, cheese, seafood, olive oil, baked goods, fermented foods, mushrooms, plants, fresh cut flowers, and seasonal specialties.
