San Diego is the top producer of avocados, number three in honey production, number five in lemons, number nine in strawberries and ranked tenth in the number of egg-laying hens. We also grow a lot of guavas, pomegranates, limes, macadamias and more.

At daily San Diego farmers markets in neighborhoods throughout the county, you can sample fresh-from-the-farm produce from regional farmers and tasty treats from local artisans. Mingle with the locals and meet the farmers while you nibble on sweet, ripe fruit, listen to live music, stroll through colorful booths and experience San Diego’s delicious lifestyle. At some markets, cooks whip up crepes, kettle corn, and tamales; vendors sell garlic-stuffed olives, olive oil, cheese and honey, all prepared locally.

At many farmers markets you’ll also find local artisans selling everything from handmade soaps, jewelry, and art to textiles, pottery, photography and other crafted treasures.
