We've become quite the farmers market enthusiasts this season, with Saturday's Alemany market being our favorite. We just learned that Alemany is the "grand daddy" of farmers markets and has been at its current location since 1947! Alemany is much more mellow than the Ferry Plaza farmers market, with lots of affordable organic and non-organic options. Alemany's downfall is that it's hard to get to as a pedestrian, and the layout is not conducive to good traffic flow. It was particularly crowded today, which means parking was very hairy. Even still, we were in and out of there in an hour. (Update: For transit-riders, the 23, 67, 9X, and Samtrans buses can all get you there.) more ›
