After Sunday service, the parking lot transforms into an energetic, well-organized farmers' market hub where vendors and shoppers converge naturally. Different zones are designated to accommodate a mix of vendor stalls, food trucks, and visitor parking, ensuring smooth flow and easy access for all. Shoppers find convenient parking near market entrances, including spots reserved for families, seniors, and those with disabilities, creating an inclusive environment that encourages everyone to enjoy the market experience.

Munchyfest Farmers Market & Food Truck Experience – Cathedral of Faith, San Jose, CA
Set on the vibrant campus of Cathedral of Faith, Munchyfest transforms sacred space into shared space — a living intersection of food, faith, and community. What once served as a place of worship now expands into a marketplace of restoration, where local farmers, food truck chefs, and artisans gather to nourish both body and soul.
This event isn’t just about good food — it’s about creating economic opportunity, building connection, and restoring dignity. Every booth, every bite, and every handshake represents a step toward equity and belonging. Families shop fresh produce, neighbors share meals, and small businesses thrive alongside outreach programs that serve the city’s most vulnerable.
As part of the Fall Vibes season — with themes like Knock, Knock Give a Sock, Thanksgiving of Hope, and Angel Tree of Kindness — Munchyfest at Cathedral of Faith stands as a model of restorative community action: where generosity meets flavor, and where everyone has a place at the table.
The Crew
Johnny & Loree – The Table Setters of Munchyfest
“They don’t just build markets — they build moments of restoration.”
Johnny and Loree are more than event organizers; they are community restorers. Their vision for Munchyfest was never just about food — it was about using the power of shared meals to rebuild connection, dignity, and belonging.
They see every booth, every food truck, and every handshake as a small act of restorative justice — a way to bring people back to the table, both literally and symbolically. Through the energy of a farmers market and the flavor of a street food festival, Johnny and Loree create a space where everyone has something to give and something to receive.
In their world, a lemonade stand becomes a lesson in generosity, a BBQ pit becomes a meeting place for reconciliation, and a loaf of bread becomes an offering of gratitude. They curate vendors who reflect the heart of the community — entrepreneurs, families, and dreamers who represent resilience and renewal.
For Johnny and Loree, Munchyfest is not just an event; it’s a movement — a living expression of restorative justice where commerce meets compassion, and where the simple act of breaking bread can break down barriers.
Restorative Justice in Action:
Creating economic opportunities for small food businesses and farmers rebuilding from hardship.
Designing inclusive spaces where all voices — from vendors to visitors — are valued.
Turning food into a platform for empathy, healing, and hope.
