Cara Cara is a rich and sweet variety of navel orange with salmon-colored flesh. Blood oranges (shown above) have a deep red color, which is due to the presence of anthocynanins, plant pigments that have antioxidant properties. Valencia oranges, the seeded variety that is popular for juicing, are generally available May through September, when other varieties are out of season at the farmers market.

Cara Cara is a rich and sweet variety of navel orange with salmon-colored flesh. Blood oranges (shown above) have a deep red color, which is due to the presence of anthocynanins, plant pigments that have antioxidant properties. Valencia oranges, the seeded variety that is popular for juicing, are generally available May through September, when other varieties are out of season at the farmers market.

Unlike lemons and oranges, however, citron is used primarily for its zest, since its pulp is dry and contains little juice. It is prized for the essential oils in the outer rind (flavedo), which are especially fragrant and believed to have antibiotic properties, as well as its pith (albedo), which is often candied and used in baking, particularly around the winter holidays. Another popular use is infused vodka.

While it's the rare farmer indeed who does more than break even selling kale and peppers, Ferry Plaza has long had the reputation as a pricy market, someplace that can feel more like a check-off for a visiting foodie's bucket list (or a chance to Instagram that porchetta sandwich) than a place for locals to stock up on carrots or tomatoes.

However, she also notes that right now, the prices at Jack London are definitely lower over all than those in San Francisco, and the market is rarely crowded, which might come as a surprise to those who only know the waterfront setting from the jam-packed Eat Real Festival. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113002\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1536px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam.jpg\" alt=\"Plenty of room to shop and stroll at the market.\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" class=\"size-full wp-image-113002\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Plenty of room to shop and stroll at the market. \u003ccite>(Tory Putnam/CUESA)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\"I think people who haven't been here before might be pleasantly surprised at how beautiful Jack London Square is.

While it's the rare farmer indeed who does more than break even selling kale and peppers, Ferry Plaza has long had the reputation as a pricy market, someplace that can feel more like a check-off for a visiting foodie's bucket list (or a chance to Instagram that porchetta sandwich) than a place for locals to stock up on carrots or tomatoes. Coburn is quick to point out that the farmers, not CUESA, set their own prices. However, she also notes that right now, the prices at Jack London are definitely lower over all than those in San Francisco, and the market is rarely crowded, which might come as a surprise to those who only know the waterfront setting from the jam-packed Eat Real Festival. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113002\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1536px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam.jpg\" alt=\"Plenty of room to shop and stroll at the market.\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" class=\"size-full wp-image-113002\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam.jpg 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cuesa_jlsfm_market_credit_Tory_Putnam-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Plenty of room to shop and stroll at the market. \u003ccite>(Tory Putnam/CUESA)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\"I think people who haven't been here before might be pleasantly surprised at how beautiful Jack London Square is.

While many markets have become year-round affairs, offering local produce and baked goods all months, there's no question that in the summer the wealth of homegrown bounty overflows. With so many farms and ranches in the North Bay, the markets in Marin, Sonoma, and Napa are among the best in the Bay Area. They range from small, produce-focused set-ups to huge events attended by everyone in the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the markets also accept EBT (electronic benefit transfer), California's version of food stamps. In fact, most of the markets also offer a \"market match,\" meaning that those who spend their EBT dollars on fresh produce or meats will get extra money to spend while there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking to shop fresh and local?

That shouldn't come as much surprise, since Point Reyes itself is situated in the heartland of Marin farms. Along with produce, the market is home to a number of local merchants, who sell bread, flowers, and even animal hides. While the market is primarily focused on food, and often merges with the foods on sale inside Toby's Feed Barn, there are also kids programs in the garden, book giveaways once per month, and music for the adults.

Held in the parking lot behind the Civic Center in San Rafael, the market is so popular that Marin County voted to approve a permanent home for the farmers to sell their wares on a rotating basis. (Funds still have to be raised for the new home to be completed next year.) While the Agricultural Institute of Marin (AIM) runs both a Thursday and Sunday morning market at the Civic Center, it's the weekend event that draws the massive crowds. Of the 240 vendors, over half are agricultural, but there are also craft tents as you enter by the kids area and prepared food tents/trucks -- a sandwich from \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/thefarmerswifesonoma\" target=\"_blank\">The Farmer's Wife\u003c/a> will fuel your shopping. About 50% of the agricultural vendors are certified organic, according to AIM, and most are from the Marin-Napa-Sonoma area. The Institute also began running an audit program, where it verifies that everything each farmer says they grow, they actually grow. While the specific make-up of the market varies with the seasons and weekends, you can always find top-quality produce, meat, cheese, and interesting prepared foods, like baked goods, olive oils, and honey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://agriculturalinstitute.org/directory/listing-details/sunday-san-rafael-market/\" target=\"_blank\">Marin Sunday Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nParking lot behind the San Rafael Civic Center [\u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/UQCyJ0\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nCivic Center Dr, San Rafael, CA 94903\u003cbr>\nHours: Sunday, 8 a.m.-1 p.m. year-round\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: Around 240\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes, market match - spend $20 and get $10 extra\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/MarinFarmersMarkets\" target=\"_blank\">Marin Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/eatlocal101\" target=\"_blank\">@EatLocal101\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://instagram.com/aim_farmers_markets/\" target=\"_blank\">AIM_farmers_markets\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" size=\"full\" link=\"none\" ids=\"98503,98493,98492,98494,98495,98496,98497,98498,98499,98500,98501,98502\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across from the Golden Gate Ferry terminal in Larkspur, the \u003cstrong>Marin Country Mart Farmers Market\u003c/strong> runs every Saturday in the shopping center's parking lot.

It also has baked goods, like the breads from Rustic Bakery, which has a store location inside the shopping center, and prepared items like donuts and sandwiches. The popular \u003ca href=\"http://www.sanfranciscocrabshipping.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Santa Rosa Seafood\u003c/a> may be the most-visited stall; it typically has a line around its tent.

Lagunitas Brewing Company also offers a beer tasting, so you can make a night of it. Some chairs and small tables are provided, but you can also bring your own blanket. Oh, and while you're enjoying your evening, you might as well buy some food from local farmers too. A handful of local organic produce vendors sell their wares.

It started with just a handful of local farmers selling their products 37 years ago, but has grown and has been in its current form for the last decade. The Wednesday evening market takes place at the parking lot on North Street, between Grove and Foss Streets, with the Saturday morning market across the street. Even after all these years, the focus is still on the farmers and the produce. The market doesn't have much in terms of the ancillary bells and whistles that some of the more festival-like markets boast. In fact, the organization's bylaws allow it to have only five non-food or non-agriculture booths out of its 60 vendors. Those five currently include ceramics and salvaged wood pieces. While only about four of the vendors are certified organic, nearly all of them come from within a 10-mile radius of the market.

The year-round market at the Wells Fargo Center has about 70 vendors, depending on the seasons, and about half of those are agricultural vendors. Since the market has been around for so long, most of the vendors have been there for years. Even the newest sellers have been at the Santa Rosa market for about three years. Some of the stone fruits come from as far away as Modesto -- they simply don't grow up here -- but the majority of produce is from Sonoma County.

This is the frill-free one that's more about the fresh food. Most of the produce is from Sonoma County or nearby, including the selection from Paul's Produce and Oak Hill Farm. Some of the farms have even been coming to the market through multiple generations, as the original farmer's kids have taken over. While nearly half the vendors are agricultural, only a handful are organic. Along with selling their food here, some of them also sell to restaurants. Spring Hill, for example, sells its organic cheeses and butters to Chipotle, but you can also find many of the vendors' produce at more classic establishments.

Try the whiskey-smoked brown sugar or the Wine Country Chocolates. But don't worry: most of the food is more health-conscious than sugar and chocolate. About one-third of the vendors are farmers, selling what they themselves grow. There are only four or five certified organic produce farms, but many of the farms use a number of sustainable practices. While you walk the aisles to find exactly what you're looking for, the kids can enjoy story time at 10 a.m. and a kids' education program the first Saturday of the month.

At 11 a.m., local chefs do demonstrations using food from the market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.pointreyesfarmersmarket.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Point Reyes Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nToby's Feed Barn parking lot [\u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/KnSxha\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\n11250 CA-1\u003cbr>\nPoint Reyes Station, CA 94956\u003cbr>\nHours: Saturday, 9 a.m.-1 p.m. in summer, starting in June\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: 22 vendors\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes, market match - spend $10 and get $10 extra\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/pointreyesfarmersmarket\" target=\"_blank\">Point Reyes Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/prfm\" target=\"_blank\">@prfm\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://instagram.com/ptreyesfm/\" target=\"_blank\">ptreyesfm\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"gallery","attributes":{"named":{"type":"slideshow","link":"none","size":"full","ids":"98343,98349,98344,98345,98346,98347,98348","label":""},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Started over 30 years ago, the \u003cstrong>Marin Farmers Market\u003c/strong> is now the third biggest farmers market in the state.

(Funds still have to be raised for the new home to be completed next year.) While the Agricultural Institute of Marin (AIM) runs both a Thursday and Sunday morning market at the Civic Center, it's the weekend event that draws the massive crowds. Of the 240 vendors, over half are agricultural, but there are also craft tents as you enter by the kids area and prepared food tents/trucks -- a sandwich from \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/thefarmerswifesonoma\" target=\"_blank\">The Farmer's Wife\u003c/a> will fuel your shopping. About 50% of the agricultural vendors are certified organic, according to AIM, and most are from the Marin-Napa-Sonoma area. The Institute also began running an audit program, where it verifies that everything each farmer says they grow, they actually grow. While the specific make-up of the market varies with the seasons and weekends, you can always find top-quality produce, meat, cheese, and interesting prepared foods, like baked goods, olive oils, and honey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://agriculturalinstitute.org/directory/listing-details/sunday-san-rafael-market/\" target=\"_blank\">Marin Sunday Farmers Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nParking lot behind the San Rafael Civic Center [\u003ca href=\"http://goo.gl/UQCyJ0\" target=\"_blank\">Map\u003c/a>]\u003cbr>\nCivic Center Dr, San Rafael, CA 94903\u003cbr>\nHours: Sunday, 8 a.m.-1 p.m. year-round\u003cbr>\nNumber of vendors: Around 240\u003cbr>\nEBT: Yes, market match - spend $20 and get $10 extra\u003cbr>\nFacebook: \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/MarinFarmersMarkets\" target=\"_blank\">Marin Farmers Markets\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nTwitter: \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/eatlocal101\" target=\"_blank\">@EatLocal101\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nInstagram: \u003ca href=\"https://instagram.com/aim_farmers_markets/\" target=\"_blank\">AIM_farmers_markets\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"gallery","attributes":{"named":{"type":"slideshow","size":"full","link":"none","ids":"98503,98493,98492,98494,98495,98496,98497,98498,98499,98500,98501,98502","label":""},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across from the Golden Gate Ferry terminal in Larkspur, the \u003cstrong>Marin Country Mart Farmers Market\u003c/strong> runs every Saturday in the shopping center's parking lot.

Even after all these years, the focus is still on the farmers and the produce. The market doesn't have much in terms of the ancillary bells and whistles that some of the more festival-like markets boast. In fact, the organization's bylaws allow it to have only five non-food or non-agriculture booths out of its 60 vendors. Those five currently include ceramics and salvaged wood pieces.

Where will the money go? To the state, which will run the enforcement program, hiring a couple of inspectors, but mainly reimbursing county agricultural commissioners.

Where will the money go? To the state, which will run the enforcement program, hiring a couple of inspectors, but mainly reimbursing county agricultural commissioners.
