Meet Our Farmers and Vendors!

MBCFM > Vendor Focus > Meet Our Farmers and Vendors!

Vendor Focus is a new feature celebrating the farmers, vendors, and artisans who bring Monterey Bay Certified Farmers Markets to life. In each profile, we spotlight one of the many dedicated vendors from our four markets—sharing their story, their growing or crafting practices, and the products they proudly offer each week.

Our markets are known not only for an extraordinary selection of seasonal produce and specialty foods, but also for the personal connections that make shopping here so meaningful. With nearly ninety vendors—many certified organic or committed to sustainable practices—you’ll discover everything from pasture-raised poultry, sustainably caught seafood, and handcrafted cheeses to local olive oil, fresh pasta, fermented foods, local honey, artisan breads, farm-fresh eggs, flowers, plants, and an exceptional variety of certified California-grown fruits, vegetables, and nuts.

Vendor Focus offers a closer look at the people behind the booths—and an invitation to get to know the heart of our market community.
