Welcome to

The Santa Barbara Certified Farmers’ Market!

The Santa Barbara Certified Farmers’ Market Association is a non-profit mutual benefit corporation that was founded in 1983 to provide California farmers with direct access, at landmark locations, to market their cultivated products to the local community. Our Association of 130 grower members, owned and operated by the members and it’s board of directors, is committed to helping promote local farmers, and protecting the environment by sustaining and restoring surrounding agricultural areas. The SBCFMA works diligently to bring the freshest and most nutritious produce our rich, local agricultural land has to offer direct to the public.

The markets serve to strengthen local community ties and magnify our great outdoors with weekly events while enhancing our locals activities. Each week our farmers harvest a diverse and nourishing bounty from as far away as the California’s Central Valley and as near as the foothills. Seasonal diversity is available year round rain or shine. Come. Shop. Socialize. Certified - from the farmer’s hand to you!
