Pacific Beach Tuesday Certified Farmers' Market

CalFresh/SNAP EBT is accepted here for eligible items, which matters at a market where the lineup runs from farm produce and eggs to bagels, tamales, fish, tea, and prepared foods. The Pacific Beach Tuesday Certified Farmers' Market in San Diego brings together growers such as Gilbert & Lee Quintos Farm, Heritage Family Farm, Pure Harvest Orchard, and Scorpion Farms alongside a long list of food makers and artisan booths. That mix gives this market a practical rhythm: you can build a produce bag, pick up a ready-to-eat lunch, and leave with pantry staples or household goods in one stop.

Why it matters locally

Gilbert & Lee Quintos Farm brings vegetables, avocados, citrus, and flowers, while Heritage Family Farm adds citrus, avocado, juice, tomatoes, and fruit. Pure Harvest Orchard focuses on stone fruit, and Scorpion Farms rounds out the fresh side with eggs, berries, vegetables, and beans. That farm core is paired with California-grown cut flowers from Hidalgo Flowers and local-style pantry makers such as Nuvo Olive Oil and Aliza’s Honey.

The market also gives small food businesses room across a wide range of formats, from freshly squeezed juice and sugar cane juice to vegan sauces, gluten-free baked goods, and handmade kitchen wares. The vendor application materials describe San Diego Markets as a place for farmers, food makers, and artisans, and this market’s roster matches that three-part structure closely.

Know before you go

No dogs are allowed, a rule tied to CalCode guidance for farmers' markets; legitimate service animals are the stated exception. For parking, San Diego Markets notes metered and unmetered street parking plus paid lots and garages nearby. Restrooms are not listed among visitor amenities.

If you plan to use nutrition benefits, the Welcome/Info Booth handles information and EBT-SNAP services. That same booth is a useful first stop for orientation at a market with produce vendors, prepared-food stands, and artisan sellers spread across many categories.
