Want to support local businesses and farmers who work their butt off to provide organic vegetables and fruits, while also supporting pop-up shops owned by minorities or people of color? Rose Garden Farmers Market is DEFINITELY the place to be on Saturday mornings! I was really excited to come on one of these particular days mainly because there was a collaboration going on with Hijau Coffee & Drae’s Lemonade. Hijau’s has been doing their own pop up for quite a while now, and while I was intrigued about small the farmer’s market was, it was probably a selection of people that had been present just for that day. The Rose Garden Farmer's Market has played a pivotal role in supporting local businesses all throughout the Santa Clara Valley, especially those who are farmers. This direct-to-consumer model enables farmers and artisans to receive immediate feedback, build loyal customer bases, and ultimately increase their profit margins. In my opinion, the market also fosters a sense of community, encouraging residents to invest in their local economy rather than large retail chains. As a result, vendors gain not only financial benefits but also the intangible support of community engagement and recognition. Moreover, the Rose Garden Farmer's Market has contributed to the sustainability and resilience of local agriculture by encouraging organic and environmentally friendly farming practices. Farmers are often more motivated to employ sustainable methods when they have a consistent and understanding customer base that values quality over quantity. The market's emphasis on local, fresh produce helps to shorten the supply chain, reducing carbon footprints associated with long-distance transportation. This commitment to eco-friendly practices enhances the appeal of the market, drawing conscientious consumers who want to make a positive impact with their purchases. Overall, the Rose Garden Farmer's Market has established itself as an indispensable resource for local farmers and businesses, driving economic growth and promoting sustainable practices within the community.
The Rose Garden is a great farmer’s market. I love to go here to get tacos. Although is a bit early for tacos, the ones from Eduing’s kitchen are the very best. Chicken are my fave, highly recommended. Also make sure to visit the colombian inspired foods booth. Delish salpicón and fruit salad. Fruit salad is big and filling.
Great Farmer's Market with a variety of vendors. The market is small maybe 20-30 vendors but all have great quality products. Lots of fresh vegetables, fruit, and fresh cooked food. Most of the vendors have vegan friendly options. This will be my go to option every Saturday for fresh, local produce.
This farmer’s market is what our community needs!! Fresh, affordable, local and mostly organic produce at very affordable prices, knick-knacks and jewelry and plants and bike repair....it’s truly a gem in our backyard. I hope more people come to support this and that it continues to grow!!! Thank you so much to everyone who’s helped this come to life!!
Great little farmers market open every Saturday. Getting there is very convenient -- a nice walk or bike ride if you live in the area or if you need to drive there is plenty of free adjacent parking. The booths are in the Lincoln High School parking lot on Dana Ave where there are large solar panels which provide shade. I've been getting my weekly supply of fruits and vegetables from this market since it started, very happy with the quality. I also always get some of the great hummus. It is unfortunate that dogs are not allowed to be in the area where food is being sold, but this is legal requirement for the market to operate in the city and not lose its license to operate. Dogs are welcome outside the food vending area, and there is a dog park at Lincoln High School too. We sometimes bring our dog, and one of us hangs out with the dog under the shade of one of the solar panels while the other shops.
