Overview The Outer Sunset Farmers Market and Mercantile takes over 37th Avenue between Ortega and Quintara every Sunday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., year-round, rain or shine, and it is the only year-round event Sunset Mercantile runs. Farmers and flower growers set up beside food trucks, makers and local bands, and the Artship, a shipping container turned art space, opens for families. Sunset Mercantile presents the market with the city's Office of Economic and Workforce Development and the People of Parkside Sunset. Two Sunset District mothers, Angie Petitt and Laura Peschke-Zingler, founded Sunset Mercantile in 2014, and its events across San Francisco draw more than 200,000 people a year. On site Stalls run from farm produce, flowers and plants to prepared and frozen foods, and the market sells hot dishes from burritos and bao buns to gumbo. A Fun Zone holds family activities. The Artship, parked at 1994 37th Avenue since September 2022, runs free all-ages art activities and workshops and keeps a free library. Lunar New Year, Diwali and Dia de los Muertos each get a market day of their own; the Diwali program has included a rangoli workshop, henna, diya decorating and a saree-draping demonstration. Muni's 7, 29 and 48 lines serve the market, parking is on the surrounding streets, and dogs stay on the sidewalk outside it. Audience Sunset Mercantile's sponsorship book describes the market crowd as health-minded food shoppers who prioritize shopping locally and supporting small makers, farmers and artisans, and it says 51% of its event audience lives in the Sunset District and 35% elsewhere in San Francisco. The market takes CalFresh, WIC and EBT; EBT users trade for market coins at the info booth. Track record Eater has named it a destination farmers market for Northern California, and the San Francisco Chronicle has written about it. The Artship moved to 37th Avenue in September 2022 after starting out at Playland at 43rd Avenue, and it partners with local nonprofits including Climate Action Now!, Children's Book Project and Sunset Youth Services. Brand presence Sponsors can plan a campaign by season around the cultural Sundays. Partners can take a fun activity space with their own games, a food court, entertainment or stage sponsorship, a step-and-repeat photo spot, or a cultural event day. An Artship sponsor gets a permanent banner on site and can donate branded product for the art activities.
