San Leandro

San Leandro's downtown market closes off Parrott Street between E. 14th and Washington Wednesdays from April through October, 3 to 7 p.m. It's a smaller, after-work market than the city's Saturday Bayfair market — produce, cut flowers, and baked goods packed into a few downtown blocks instead of a mall parking lot.

Expect organic produce, flowers, coffee, and prepared foods like dim sum, with grassy space to eat under the palm trees.

Emeryville

This market's address places it at the Bay Street shopping center at 5616 Bay Street in Emeryville, though a check of Bay Street's own site turned up no active farmers market listing — Emeryville's Saturday market now runs instead at the Public Market on Shellmound Street. Confirm before visiting; the listing may be outdated or the market may have relocated.

Kaiser Permanente's Oakland Medical Center hosts a certified farmers market on its Broadway campus, running seasonally in spring through fall.
