Originally opened on the second Sunday in April 1997. It has been a big success since it first opened and still retains the reputation as “The Best” Farmers Market in San Diego County. The market originally opened with 35 vendors and now has grown and reached its maximum capacity at the present site of 110 vendors. The majority of sales at the market has always been and continues to consist mainly of locally grown in season fruit, produce and flowers. Many of the local and California Farmers participating in the market grow their produce organically or with no pesticides. The market also hosts a large variety of prepared food and hot food foods with an emphasis on international cuisine. Additionally, each week there are a large number of arts and crafts vendors participating each Sunday. There is weekly music at the market that will be performed by various local musicians. The Hillcrest Farmers Market is open every Sunday 9:00 am to 2:00 pm rain or shine and is located at the DMV parking lot at the intersection of Lincoln and Normal streets.
