The Redwoods in Yosemite has a market on site, but its hours are incredibly limited. Oakhurst, outside Yosemite National Park’s southern entrance, will be the best spot to stock up on any food cravings you may have.

The high season mirrors that of Yosemite Valley. Don’t expect to find any availability in the summer, unless you are booking months in advance. The best time to visit the Redwoods in Yosemite is in the off-season, aka winter, spring, or fall. Those times may be better anyway, since some of the properties are lacking in air conditioning, and Yosemite gets hot, hot, hot.
