    The Salcedo Community Market is a community market that sells various delights, such as fresh produce and artisinal products. Found at the Jaime Velasquez Park, it’s a great place to spend Saturday mornings with. It’s a shopping destination for those who want an alternative and healthier options aside from those found in a mall. Here, most of the products are made for a cause, which helps in the livelihood of indigenous communities.

    Founded in 2005, the Salcedo Market is a community project under the Women of Bel-Air Foundation, Inc. and brought together by the love of food. The market meets, come rain or shine, every Saturday with its concessionaires offer a wide range of international food, specialty products, handicraft, and many more.

Of course, with being a market that’s all for healthier options, they sell gluten-free products such as diet bread for a healthier you.
