Gilbert Farmers Market

Sunny Markets, LLC operates Gilbert Farmers Market, a year-round Saturday market with more than 150 vendors and a producer-only standard that shapes what shoppers find each week. The market is located on the Chandler-Gilbert Community College Campus at the northwest corner of Gilbert Road and Pecos Road, giving it a campus setting rather than a downtown street setup. Stalls focus on local, chemical-free, organic produce from Arizona farmers alongside farm-fresh eggs, meat, cheese, bread, sweets, coffee, tea, sauces, seasonings, and other locally made artisan products. The market also carries its own nickname, “The Foodie Market,” a label tied directly to that food-heavy mix.

Why it matters locally

The producer-only standard is the clearest local signal here: Gilbert Farmers Market describes itself as a “Producer Only Market” and has held that approach since its inception. That matters because the market pairs Arizona farm products with locally made goods instead of a general retail mix. Its stated lineup centers on local, chemical-free, organic produce from Arizona farmers, then broadens into farm-fresh eggs, meat, cheese, bread, sweets, coffee, tea, sauces, seasonings, and artisan products made nearby. The operation itself is also formalized in ways that affect shoppers and vendors alike, with Sunny Markets, LLC owning and operating the market and non-farmer food vendors required to carry a Maricopa permit or co-packer certificate to participate. The vendor roster shifts regularly, and the market says the most current list is shared through its social channels.

Know before you go

No dogs are allowed, a rule that will change plans for anyone expecting to walk the market with a pet. Location details also matter here because the market uses the Chandler-Gilbert Community College Campus, specifically the northwest corner of Gilbert Road and Pecos Road, while the FAQ lists the campus address as 2626 E. Pecos Rd. in Chandler. Customer parking is available, and vendors park in a designated area about a two-minute walk from the market area, which helps explain the separation between shopper and seller access. Restrooms are available on site, including portable ADA-accessible units. The market runs year-round and says it operates come rain or shine, with closures limited to certain holidays rather than a seasonal shutdown. If you plan around a specific seller, the market map updates every Friday at noon and the vendor list changes constantly.
