Coastside Farmers Markets is the San Mateo coast nonprofit operating two [[berkeley|California]] Certified Farmers’ Markets — Half Moon Bay (Saturdays 9am–1pm) and Pacifica (Wednesdays 2pm–6pm). Founded by Erin Tormey. The org’s distinguishing operational commitment is its incubator framing: explicitly oriented to “supporting and incubating upstart producers from diverse backgrounds” and helping “new, small farms and food making businesses get off the ground.” Vendor categories: certified producers/farmers, ranchers/dairy, fishermen, and artisan food makers — all required to be the actual producers, not resellers.
Markets accept CalFresh EBT with [[the-market|the Market]] Match dollar-for-dollar program (funded in part through [[berkeley|California]] Department of Food and Agriculture and USDA NIFA). The mission language: “link Coastside residents with their neighbors — the Coastside farmers, ranchers, fishermen and culinary artisans” while serving as a “forum for community-serving nonprofits.”
