Rejoice, all fruit-and-veggie-loving downtown dwellers and employees.
After a two-year absence, the Downtown Farmers Market will return to San Jose with a weekly Wednesday schedule — but at a new location.
The rejuvenated market will take place starting April 23 at the Hammer Theatre Plaza on the Paseo de San Antonio between Second and Third streets from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
The city of San Jose collaborated with the Regional Farmers Market Association to bring back a street market, which last was held in 2022 in the SoFA district.
