FOX 5 News interviewed Christine Davis, the executive director of the Carlsbad Village Association. Christine said they are reopening little by little and will start with 26 vendors. By taking baby steps, the Association will ensure that reopening is done safely for everyone who attends. Be sure and stop by on Wednesday nights and support our local Carlsbad businesses!
Where To Park
There is plenty of parking in the Village. Sometimes you just have to hunt a little harder for it. There are several public lots within one to two blocks of the market. Public lots are located on Roosevelt Street, State Street (south of Carlsbad Village Drive), and behind the Coaster Station. And, don’t forget that State Street, between Grand Avenue and Carlsbad Village Drive, must be cleared of all cars starting at 1:00 pm to make room for the Farmers’ Market.
Local Organic Food
Are you looking for local strawberries, avocados, apples, oranges, ripe melons, cherries and blueberries? How about tomatoes and other local greens? The Carlsbad Farmers Market has it all and more! There are also numerous specialty food vendors selling homemade and imported items including salsa, cheese, granola, popcorn, fresh-squeezed juice, olives and olive oil, seasonings and mixes, tamales and burritos, breads and pastries and local farm fresh eggs.
Local Carlsbad Handcrafted Items
I was recently walking around to check out all of the cool handcrafted items that local artisans have created. I found a nice selection of handcrafted products such as candles, jewelry, soaps, cakes, and natural hummus and so much more!
