Grand Lake Farmers Market

Come for the amazing vendors, stay for the gorgeous location! The Grand Lake Farmers Market is situated in Splash Pad Park, a beautiful outdoor gathering spot designed by Oakland’s own Walter Hood. A bevy of vendors serves up everything you need—organic produce, flowers, coffee, pastries, and prepared goods like dim sum—so you can fill up your tote and enjoy a grassy picnic among the palm trees, native gardens, and fountain.

Vibrant, communal, and bustling, Grand Lake Farmers Market has a dynamic, welcoming vibe with people from all walks of life. Visit via AC Transit, or find plenty of parking for both cars and bikes.
