The Ecology Center operates three certified farmers' markets every week in Berkeley, all year round, rain or shine. We support sustainable agriculture, and more than 60% of the farmers selling at our markets are certified organic. We feature the freshest and tastiest of local fruits and vegetables from California's diverse growing climates. Also at the markets are fish and shellfish, grass fed beef, sustainably raised pork, goat & cow cheese, fresh breads, pastries, juices, salsas, jams, chutnies, tamales, hand-made tortillas, sauerkraut, and prepared food made with local, organic ingredients.

They do a wonderful job at organizing the markets providing local produce and a safe enviorment. Also they do a great job educating patrons about the variety of items found at the market that are sometimes overlooked.
