Monterey Market is a village-based business that supports local farmers and the community. It is a supermarket mainly intended for buying fresh vegetables and fruits, with an amazing abundance that is hard to describe. The market provides a great assortment, with virtually every variety including an organic or pesticide-free option. It sells tasty and healthy organic foods at great, cheap prices comparatively. The aisles are narrow and it can be a total madhouse, but it is a Berkeley staple and a great shopping experience. The mission is simple: to provide good fruits and vegetables in season.
Be prepared to wait in line. But it’s worth it for the mushroom aisle alone. Check out the clearance shelf outside for super ripe stuff at a huge mark down.

Reminds me of the markets back home in Spain, what a variety of fruits and vegetables and good prices too!
