San Pedro Market Square had a farmer's market and food trucks parked outside its two pavilions with outdoor picnic seating between. A very fun space, I understand that they often have live music and other events at the venue on a regular basis. Filled with local shops and food vendors, the place had a great vibe and industrial feel. I was lucky to be placed in a room that had huge industrial doors/windows and a drip coffee bar.
The foot traffic was steady all day, despite the occasional rain. Of course had to sample the food (and beer) which was outstanding! Faves were the chicken and waffle cone from The Chef Counter, the Diavola pizza at Bocca Lupo and the Alagash white beer at The Bar.
The vendors turned it out as well! I was obsessed with the handmade terrariums from Leandra seated next to me. I loved her story -- she pulled the succulents from her own garden to create whimsical succulent plant arrangements. She knew each type of plant and how they would grow. So fun!
Across the way from me were these adorable plush pillows? toys? Doesn't matter. Fun and whimsical. I especially loved the bright orange fox and the crafty masked raccoon.
There you have it! A great day in San Jose. I got to see some long-time customers based in the South Bay (finally!) and discovered a really cool hangout in San Jose. A huge thanks to the organizer Stephanie, all the volunteer helpers, and all the folks who came out to shop!
