Submitted by the Event Organizer

Celebrate local Black-owned businesses and get ready for the holiday season with a day of delicious food, crafts, and community at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market. The south arcade of the Ferry Building will be transformed for a special holiday market featuring 15 Bay Area food makers and designers, in partnership with the Fillmore-based Black-led marketplace In the Black. Find thoughtful gifts and stocking stuffers for everyone on your list, like baked goods, food crafts, skincare, apparel and accessories, gift cards, and more. Entry is free and open to the public, with products available for purchase.
