State Street Farmers Market Named One of North County’s Top Attractions

Blog Post - July 23, 2025

Category: What's New

The Carlsbad Village community has something big to celebrate. Our very own State Street Farmers Market has been named second place for Best Attraction in the 2025 Best of North County Awards, hosted by The Coast News.

Held every Wednesday afternoon in the heart of the Village, the State Street Farmers Market brings together farmers, food makers, artisans, musicians, and neighbors in a lively, walkable setting that reflects the spirit of Carlsbad. From fresh produce and gourmet eats to handmade goods and live music, the market is more than a weekly event, it’s a Village tradition.

This recognition is a meaningful nod to what the market has become: a gathering place that blends local flavor with community connection.

We are especially proud of, and deeply grateful to, our farmers, vendors, and small businesses who show up each week with passion, creativity, and incredible products. This award belongs to all of you.
