ARCATA PLAZA FARMERS' MARKET
"One of the best farmers' markets in the west." - Google Review
The Arcata Plaza farmers' market is the largest of NCGA's markets, hosting over 70 local farmers and makers at the height of the season. The market as we know it today evolved from the first "Community Producers Market" started in 1978, and was one of the very first farmers' markets established in the state. The Saturday market moved locations a couple times before landing on the Arcata Plaza in the mid-80's. Since then, the Arcata Plaza market has expanded to all four sides of the Plaza, showcasing a wide array of agricultural products from throughout the county. The center food court was added in 2004, and the market became year-round with the official adoption of the Winter Market in 2012. The Winter Market had been operating unofficially in front of Brio at their gracious invitation since about 2008, starting with just 2 vendors. Today, the Winter Market is almost as well attended as the Main Season.
