Was expecting something great. Was very disappointed. They open early, before vendors arrive! It feels like a junk/garage sale. And not a very good one. Produce looked good, but most of everything else we would have hauled to the dump.

You have to pay for your space which i understand. No customers.. doesn't matter. You have to pay $32 entrance fee as well. No customers which they already know. .ICE raids r frequent per another vendor thus no customers.if uou don't have $32 they keep your drivers license plus $10 to get it back. No refunds. They are .asking money off vendors

Are you interested in selling? The market operates on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Non-reservation spots become available when gates open at 6 am, although vendors typically begin lining up at 4 am to secure optimal spaces on a first-come, first-served basis. Beware this line get really long. Seller fees amount to $35, Wednesday & Sunday with spaces costing $30. On Saturdays. Space sizes vary on covered or non-covered spaces. Upon payment, vendors without reservations can occupy any available space lacking a yellow line or 'reserved' sign. Note that other vendors often scour the area with flashlights seeking bargains to resell. Selling concludes at 3 pm, though most vendors depart around 12 noon. Reserve a space and cough up $22, then pay another $35 at the gate - a cool $57. But don't worry, electricity is only $10 more. The real fun begins when nature calls and you must persuade a neighbor to keep an eye on your stuff while you sprint to the market's one and only outdated wasteful restroom. I spent a whopping $100 to set up shop here on Saturday and Sunday - no reservation, no electricity, just pure entrepreneurial spirit! One space on Saturday, two on Sunday, and I still managed to rake in $250 over the two days, leaving me with a tidy $150 profit after paying for my space. Pics of my impressive setup included!

This is a great place for people to come together with their families and look for bargains. Admission is $2 and for better parking get here early as possible. There is handicap parking but it does get full really quick. As you know Wednesdays are open as well which are pretty busy given the weather Saturdays are great and Sundays are the busiest. Restaurant has great food and recently added homemade pizza to its great tasting Burgers and Fries in other finger foods

Great place to do bargain shopping on the weekends and Wednesdays. Entrance fee is $2 per person. They have shopping carts and dollies so you can load your purchases and take them to your truck.
