SLO Ranch Farms and Marketplace is currently the cornerstone of San Luis Ranch, a vibrant development that is bringing over 580 residential units, a hotel, future office complex, and a dynamic commercial and retail center to the city of San Luis Obispo. Strategically located on Highway 101, the Marketplace enjoys high visibility and easy access for the neighborhood, the surrounding community, and travelers.
SLO Ranch Farms and Marketplace showcases several distinct features designed to attract a wide range of customers. At its forefront is a permanent farmer’s market style market. This central feature is surrounded and supported by a brew house, restaurants and retail shopping. Notably, nearly 40 acres of a working farm are attached to the Farm & Marketplace. This prime agricultural acreage features community garden plots and interactive seasonal farming, including pumpkin patches, hayrides, berry picking, and other activities that actively engage the public.

The architecture draws inspiration from the historic ranch and barn that were previously located on the San Luis Ranch property. Large barn or roll-up doors create scenic indoor-outdoor spaces. The plaza features permanent outdoor seating and fire pits, along with a stage for various events and public gatherings.
