Crocker Galleria Farmer's Market
The new brain break: grabbing some of the Bay Area’s freshest fare in the open air.
Who said farmers’ markets are just for quaint neighborhoods on Sunday mornings? Every Thursday, FiDi gets a little taste of local offerings, everything from fruits/veggies and treats from Esther’s German Bakery, to truffles, olives, and smoked salmon jerky. With options like this right at the footsteps of FiDi, the Crocker Galleria's Farmers Market has your weekly grocery shopping nearly covered. What’s better? The bountiful free samples! But seriously — fresh air, fresher food, buzzing community supporting one another — there couldn’t be a better excuse to pop out of the office for a quick lap or two. Ok three — the cheese spot is worth another swing through.
So skip the stodgy salad shops, your microwaveable freezer feast, and those overpriced ethnic eats, and check out Crocker the next time you need some noms. Bonus points if you make it a “walking meeting” with a coworker or 12.
