Denio’s Roseville Farmer’s Market was founded in 1947 by Jim and Marilee Denio. It began small, with a single individual selling produce near the Southern Pacific Railroad Yard. Before long, the Saturday “Auction” by Mr. Denio became the main highlight at Denio’s. Soon, other vendors began to rent space from Mr. Denio and sell their products. In time, the Farmer’s Market developed into a local Saturday event. As word spread throughout the valley and foothills, other sellers of all types of commodities became a part of the Farmer’s Market. By the early 1960s, Denio’s was known as the largest, cleanest, and most efficiently run farmer’s market, auction, and bazaar in California. The 1970s and 1980s saw an influx of weekend vendors selling all types of merchandise.

Built around the idea that an open air market provides the opportunity for a seller to operate a retail business in a high traffic area with the lowest possible overhead costs and, in turn, to pass those savings on to the customers, it is the primary goal of Denio’s to provide their guests and vendors a clean, friendly atmosphere with the best possible service, unique products, and great deals. They are dedicated to maintaining a relaxed, family-friendly environment, which lends itself to the mixture of the thousands of people who attend each weekend. The Denio Family is committed to offering you fresh produce and bargain merchandise for years to come.
