Spring is a good time to experience the lively charm of San Diego’s Little Italy Mercato, the county’s largest farmers’ market.
Every Saturday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. and Wednesday from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., rain or shine, the market transforms the neighborhood into a bustling hub of fresh flavors and artisan finds.
Stretching across six city blocks on Saturdays, the Mercato is a paradise for food lovers, offering everything from farm-fresh produce and pastured eggs to locally made breads, sauces, and olive oils.
Midweek, the Wednesday market brings a more intimate experience, filling three blocks around the scenic Piazza della Famiglia with handcrafted goods, fresh flowers, and gourmet treats.
Whether you’re stopping by for weekend shopping or a midweek pick-me-up, the Mercato is a celebration of San Diego’s farmers, artisans, and vibrant community spirit.
For those looking to dive deeper into the neighborhood’s culture, Little Italy Tours & Experiences by So Diego offers another way to explore. Launched late last year, these curated tours blend history, food, and local flavor into an immersive adventure. Guests can enjoy food and wine tastings, visits to iconic eateries, and even customizable itineraries to fit their interests—all while supporting the small businesses that make Little Italy special. It’s a different way to sample the best of the neighborhood without committing to full meals, making each outing relaxed and delicious.
In March and in honor of Women’s History Month, don’t miss the Female Maker Market at the Piazza della Famiglia held one Sunday each month, this inspiring event showcases the talents of women artisans, chefs, and entrepreneurs. Browse handmade goods, discover your new favorite local bite or drink, and shop from small, women-owned businesses that bring creativity and passion to the community.
