Farmers Market at Ix, March 30, 2024, Hours 9:00 to 1:00 p.m. Next week, 8:00 to 12:00.

Hello Market Community,

This is the last winter season market, and we’re gradually transitioning to the spring season at the Market at Ix. The nice weather brings the vendors out, so we are full for this week. Little Hat Creek, Gathered Threads, Agriberry, Singing Earth, Pies and Produce, Sweet Greens, Orion Family Farm, Olive Branch Gardens, Bellair Farm and Bee Conscious have spring greens, root vegetables, the end of winter apples, microgreens, and spring flowers. Free Union Grass farm also offers tulips for sale. Many of the food producers are also returning, such as Hammered Inn Farms and Gardens, famous for hot peppers and hot sauce.

Breakfast and brunch options abound: Hog Haven, Focaccia Divina, Empanadas Market, the PIe Guy, Penny’s Imperfect Pizza, Ambrosia, Mexican Tacos, Rum Punch, Sweet Jane’s Kitchen, Khadija’s Kitchen, SFG Foods, and Tico Loco offer hot food choices. The bakers include Althea, Crescent Moon, Homestead Oven, Stroopwafel Sisters, Good Phyte Food, Bubble Cloud Pastries, Bee Conscious, Marci’s Morsels, Mr. Baker, Angel’s Afghan Cuisine, Cookie Lane, and Meryem’s Homemade.

More vendors bring everything from Kombucha, to fresh juice smoothies, to authentic Guatemalan tamales to tempeh and coffee and tea.

Don’t forget the jams, sauces, and finally, the artists.

We will have to reduce the number of arts and crafts vendors as the farms return, but hope that by offering alternating spots, you will be able to find your favorite artist and creator. The Marketspread website for the Market at Ix, is an excellent way to find out who will be at the market, what the vendors produce, and how to contact them.

With over 80 vendors, it is easier for you to look them up on Marketspread than to print such a long list. Click the vendors’ names on the map for more information about them.
