CommentMeant to evoke a European style public market, the 40,000 square-foot Oxbow Public market readies itself for a December 15 opening.
The market will feature regional and seasonal foods, including meats, poultry, seafood, artisan cheese, produce, bread and baked goods, wine and flowers. Also included will be cafes, “farmstands” or a daily farmers market, and outdoor deck with dining space.

Two older office buildings, a house and the Napa Valley Tire Shop once occupied the market space. The land is leased from Copia.
