We have two weekly market locations!

ASCENDtials Farmers’ Markets
Fresh Food. Local Vendors. Cultural Connection. Two Weekly Markets Serving San Diego.
ASCENDtials proudly hosts two weekly Farmers’ Markets — one in City Heights and one in the Marina District — each offering fresh produce, local artisans, cultural programming, and a welcoming space for families, neighbors, and volunteers.
Both markets uplift community wellness, support local growers, and create meaningful opportunities for connection, stewardship, and economic empowerment.

🌱 City Heights Farmers’ Market
A Celebration of One of the Most Diverse Communities in the United States
City Heights is home to one of the most culturally diverse neighborhoods in the country, and our Farmers’ Market reflects that richness in every way. Each week, the market becomes a vibrant tapestry of global flavors, ancestral traditions, and community pride — a place where authenticity is lived, shared, and celebrated.
Our market represents this diversity through:
• Vegetarian and plant‑forward offerings
• Wellness services rooted in ancestral practices
• Foods inspired by our rich African heritage
• Traditional dishes from El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Somalia
• Fresh honey, artisan breads, seasonal fruits
• Some of the best organic greens in San Diego
The vendors, the music, the artisans, the themes — everything at the City Heights Farmers’ Market reflects the cultures, stories, and communities that make this neighborhood extraordinary.
When you visit, you’re not just shopping.
You’re connecting with authenticity, honoring heritage, and supporting a community that thrives on diversity and unity.

Marina District Farmers’ Market
A Waterfront Market Rooted in Community and Stewardship
Our Marina District market blends fresh food, local vendors, and waterfront energy with ASCENDtials’ mission of healing, stewardship, and cultural uplift. It serves as a community anchor and a gateway to ASCENDtials’ broader programming across the district.
What you’ll find:
• Local growers and handcrafted goods
• Wellness and cultural programming
• Youth engagement activities
• ASCENDtials membership and volunteer opportunities
• A welcoming, community‑centered atmosphere
This market is a place to gather, connect, and nourish both body and spirit.
