Despite being one of San Francisco’s most popular Sunday food destinations, the Outer Sunset Farmers’ Market & Mercantile may be on the move. The disheartening news, first reported by SFGATE, comes as market organizer Angie Petitt faces off with the administration of St. Ignatius College Preparatory, a private school located on the street where the market occurs.
Here’s the gist of the drama: The school requested the farmers market, which is held every Sunday and seasonally on Wednesday nights on 37th Avenue between Ortega and Quintara streets, shut down completely for three upcoming Sundays. St. Ignatius additionally requested the market contract from two blocks down to one for an additional seven Sundays. Petitt, however, says doing so would have “catastrophic impact” on the “sustainability” of the market, which serves as a crucial venue for dozens of farmers, small businesses, and organizations that vend at the event weekly. “We are a small organization running the market on a tight budget, foregoing or reducing by half the income from 10 market days would render the market financially unsustainable,” Petitt told SFGATE.
In a letter to Supervisor Gordon Mar, who represents the Outer Sunset, Petitt says she hopes the market will be able to reach a compromise with the school, but as of Tuesday there were no plans for the two parties to sit down and discuss what that might look like. If there’s no deal to be made, Petitt says she’ll have to consider moving the market — no small feat — or shutting down completely.
