Farmstands & Markets

Casa de Fruta started out as a roadside fruit stand and today welcomes more than 2 million travelers from around the world each year. Come to the “Casa” to pick up some fresh-from-the-orchard produce, dine at the 24-hour restaurant, sample award-winning wines from Zanger Vineyards, shop for unique gifts, or even stay a few nights at the RV park.

Garlic World is a unique combination of fruit stand, gourmet food store, and gift shop. The store’s specialty is garlic (in every way, shape and form imaginable), but you can also find fresh produce, dried fruits, nuts, honey, preserves, Gilroy wines, gifts, and cookbooks.

The Gilroy Farmers Market is held every Saturday at Luigi Aprea Elementary School (9225 Calle Del Rey) from 10am - 2pm. Enjoy a variety of farm-fresh fruits and veggies as well as baked goods, gourmet coffee, and balloons and fun games for kids!

This popular roadside farm stand at the corner of Masten Avenue and Santa Teresa Blvd. has become the lifeblood for the Bonino family’s agricultural operation. Locals make regular stops for fresh-from-the-field corn, juicy tomatoes, colorful peppers, squash, strawberries, firewood, and more. Open from late March through Christmas Eve.

During harvest season you’ll find fresh cherries, strawberries, apricots, plums, corn, and more at local fruit stands throughout Gilroy and surrounding communities. It just doesn’t get any fresher than this!
