Andy’s is a proud member of GO LOCAL, a network of locally-owned businesses, non-profit organizations, and government agencies working together to build a thriving local economy by supporting local, independently owned businesses and promoting sustainable practices.
We are proud of and humbled by the strong relationships we have with our local customers, local suppliers, local farms, and the many local non-profit organizations we support. Andy’s is committed to continuing these relationships, many dating back to the 1960’s. Unique to our location in the heart of Sonoma County, Andy’s is able to obtain many items from local farmers who only produce small amounts. So during the summer, fruits like berries and apples come right from farms near the market. Although the price may not beat the large, more corporate-type farmers at the City Market, Andy’s appreciates and vigorously supports other family and locally-owned businesses.
Produce
Andy’s Produce Market takes pride in providing our customers the freshest, highest quality fruits and vegetables for the best price around. In addition to buying from neighboring family farms, the buyers at Andy’s also work from the San Francisco City Market, transporting only the most premium produce back to Sebastopol. Our buyers meet every afternoon to discuss inventory and decide what to purchase, being careful to ensure only the freshest fruits and vegetables are displayed. As night falls, our experienced buyer’s workday begins. Andy’s son-in-law Frank is met at the San Francisco City Market by one of Andy’s semi-trucks to purchase and bring home produce for the next morning. If a product is not up to standards, he calls in to other farmers in the area to discuss what they have available to send to the store. After hours of viewing, testing and negotiating, he and the semi come home to deliver the goods that within hours will be distributed to the retail store as well as many Sonoma County businesses.
Organic
Our buyers carefully select and purchase only the finest organic fruits and vegetables available. Although the organic produce section is not quite as large as others in the store, it is still thoughtfully taken care of and delicately handled. We recognize our customers who prefer only organic products, and take pride in offering them the widest selection of fresh organic fruits and vegetables. Come on in and ask for Poncho if you have any questions or need help with your organic produce shopping.
Grocery
We’re not just a produce market! Andy’s has many unique grocery items available to our customers. You can find locally made dairy products and breads, as well as many other nationally recognized items you’d find at the big chain grocery stores.
The refrigerator and freezer section of the store is stocked with the basic dairy products like milk, cheese, eggs and ice cream, as well as unique items like vegetarian, organic and vegan meals. You can also pickup specialty items like fish, local chicken and beef, or shop through our ever-growing Gluten Free section.

Beer & Wine
Andy’s Produce is most recognized and adored for our grand selection of top-quality, fresh fruits and vegetables. While not deterring from our goal of offering no less than just that, our family and staff have kept up with the demands of our customers, and proudly offer a wonderful selection of local wine, beer and cider. Customers can shop through a wide selection of local and sparkling wines in price ranges for all wine drinkers. We also carry a great assortment of ice cold beer and some tasty local hard ciders.

Andy’s offers an impressive selection of different vitamins and supplements for nearly any health need. You can also find an array of soaps, bath oils, hand creams and body lotions, with samples of nearly all the lotions available to try. What makes the products in the Health and Beauty section so unique is that many of them are from local companies and cannot be found in major grocery store chains. Havah is our expert supplements buyer and would be happy to discuss any products or answer any questions.
