Kaiser Antioch Farmers' Market

Kaiser Antioch Farmers' Market operates within a network run by PCFMA, a nonprofit founded in 1988 with a mission to support California farmers and communities through farmers' markets serving the Bay Area. That mission gives this Antioch market a clear frame: a seasonal weekly stop where produce, prepared foods, and nutrition-access programs sit side by side. The market’s current vendor mix points to fresh farm produce, regional cheese, and a ready-to-eat microgreens slaw rather than a generic grocery-style spread. For shoppers in Antioch, it’s a concise market with direct ties to the growers and food producers featured by PCFMA.

Why it matters locally

PCFMA’s stated mission is to support California farmers and communities, and Kaiser Antioch Farmers' Market is one of the ways that mission lands in Antioch each week. The vendors highlighted here connect shoppers to California farm businesses with distinct regional roots, including the Andreotti family’s produce operation in Half Moon Bay and Stepladder Ranch & Creamery in Cambria.

The market also ties local shopping to food-access programs. PCFMA markets accept CalFresh/EBT and use Market Match so shoppers can purchase food and receive additional Market Match funds. That work shows up beyond the stall line too: PCFMA has published material focused on CalFresh nutrition access and joined advocacy around continued funding for the California Nutrition Incentive Program, or CNIP. In practical terms, this market supports both farm sales and affordable fresh-food access.

What you'll find there

The mix highlighted for Kaiser Antioch leans toward farm-grown produce, specialty dairy, and one prepared item with a strong produce angle. PCFMA’s own features around these vendors add a little more context than a simple stall roster, pointing to farms and foods with identifiable stories behind them.

• -Shop Andreotti Farms for fresh, sustainable produce grown by a family farm based in Half Moon Bay.
• -Pick up Stepladder Ranch & Creamery goat and cow's milk cheeses.
• -Try Oliver's Microgreens Slaw, a prepared slaw made with microgreens.
• -Look for Market Match, which helps put more fresh fruits and vegetables on your family’s table.

PCFMA also features related content tied to these vendors, including a video on the Andreotti family farm, a video tour of Stepladder Ranch & Creamery, and a recipe spotlight on Oliver's Microgreens Slaw.

Know before you go

No dogs are allowed at Kaiser Antioch Farmers' Market, which is the clearest visit rule to plan around before heading out. The market runs on Thursdays from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. during its April-to-October season, so this is a daytime weekday stop rather than a weekend market. It takes place at 4501 Sand Creek Rd. in Antioch.

Payment planning should be straightforward because the market’s payment methods are clearly indicated, and CalFresh/EBT is accepted through PCFMA’s system. Restrooms are not available on site, another practical detail that may shape how long you stay and whether you combine the trip with other errands. The overall setup reads as a focused neighborhood market with a short, useful list of logistics to know ahead of time.

Payments & SNAP

Kaiser Antioch Farmers' Market accepts SNAP/EBT through PCFMA. Market Match is also part of the picture here: PCFMA describes it as a program that helps put more fresh fruits and vegetables on your family’s table, and its markets use CalFresh/EBT to purchase food and receive additional Market Match funds. That makes this market more workable for shoppers using food benefits.
