Bodega Market will return next May

We’ll be back in Spring 2026 with even more vendors, fresh programming, and new ways to enjoy your lunch hour in the heart of Sacramento. Stay tuned for updates and vendor announcements early next year!

Bodega Book Club

Once a month take part in our book club where we will read books that explore human connections, personal journeys, and family relationships with depth and sensitivity. Additionally, every week enjoy a cozy reading space within the park to eat lunch and have some time to wander into another world.

Market Movement by Yoga Moves Us

Relish in Sacramento’s tree canopy while stretching your limbs, soaking up the sun, and taking care of yourself. Yoga Moves Us will lead a group in a 20 minute session, 12:15 PM – 12:40 PM curated for office workers; a change of clothing is optional but not required.

Donation Drop Off

Our Downtown Resource Coordinators (DRC) directly assist people experiencing homelessness in collaboration with the city’s Department of Community Response. These donations will be split evenly between our DRC team and First Step Communities to meet the needs of our community.

Drop offs can be made every Thursday 10:30AM–1:30PM at the Downtown Sac tent.
