Mission Community Market

What you need to know

Thursday afternoons in the Mission, the farmers market meets the neighborhood where it lives. The Mission Community Market runs 3pm to 7pm at Bartlett and 22nd Streets, catching the after work crowd and families heading home from school.

Foodwise operates this market with the same quality standards as Ferry Plaza but a focus on the Mission’s diverse community. The vendor mix reflects who shops here: organic produce alongside affordable staples, prepared foods from local restaurants, and programming in Spanish as well as English.

The late afternoon timing works for people who cannot make Saturday morning markets. Get off work, walk over from BART, and fill your bag with dinner ingredients. The energy differs from morning markets, more relaxed and social as the work day winds down.

The location on Bartlett puts the market in the heart of Mission residential life. Families pushing strollers. Workers stopping on the way home. Neighbors catching up at the entrance while their kids run between the stalls.

The market runs March through November, taking a break during the rainy winter months. Thursday evenings in the Mission stay warm longer than other neighborhoods, the micro climate that makes Dolores Park popular keeping the market comfortable into October.

Street parking fills fast, but the 16th Street BART station is ten minutes on foot. The 14 Mission bus runs right past the market. Leave the car and walk home with your haul.
