Yosemite National Park
This tiny and super-friendly market sells groceries and bags of divine locally roasted coffee (take a deep breath in the aisles), and in summer it sells crates of seasonal fruit grown by regional farmers. It’s located a mile east of Hwy 41 amid the redwoods in Yosemite; turn east off Chilnualna Falls Rd, which is just north of the Pioneer Yosemite History Center.
You pass the market on the way to the Chilnualna Falls Trailhead.
