In the emerging residential and commercial River District in Sacramento, Alchemist Community Development Corporation is planning a public market for the community to gather and enjoy food.
The Alchemist Public Market, will serve as an incubator for food entrepreneurs and is slated to open to the public by early 2026. The market will include a large commissary kitchen, an outdoor food court, farmers markets, cafe, coworking office and more. The forthcoming market will be located at 341 North 10th Street. The project will cost an estimated $12.5 million.
Founded in 2004, the nonprofit Alchemist CDC’s mission is to connect communities in the greater Sacramento region to land, food and opportunity, creating a vision in which neighborhoods are healthy, equitable, vibrant and diverse.
The Alchemist Public Market represents all of its programs coming together into one place, but with a focus on the organization’s food entrepreneurship program, said Alchemist Executive Director Sam Greenlee.
