Market will be closed for 3 weeks starting on Christmas Day.

Yes even farmers want to take a few weeks off for the holidays.  Christmas and New Years both fall on Sunday this year and we'll add one additional week off.  We'll see you back at the market on Sunday, January 15, Martin Luther King Day weekend.

What's so special about our farmers market?

Well for one, it's smack dab in the middle of LA, and to me, it's the very best part of LA.  Almost every Sunday someone new to the farmers market will come up to me and tell me how great it is to have this market here in our neighborhood.  We're used to being under looked and under served compared to the westside, and to places like Larchmont.  But most of the people who live here live here by choice, we love the houses, the neighbors and our proximity to downtown and to the westside, if we want to go there for a visit.  We live here because we want to live a lifestyle that isn't dictacted by what neighborhood we live in.  We're a little, "we are the world" but for real.  And of course we're lucky to have one of the best selections of farmers at any farmers market.  We're working on getting cut flowers back in the market soon, then I think we won't want to go anywhere else to shop, we can get rid of our cars and ride our bikes to the market.  If you haven't been to our farmers market yet, come join in the fun and let me know what you think.

Get an entire body massage from Teacher John at the farmers market!

"It's like getting your entire body massaged, even the insides" said one market goer last week after he tried the "Ki Energy" massage.  "It's like nothing else, it actually helps you to re-align your body" said another market shopper about the "Ki Energy" massage. 
The farmers are bringing the season's best.  And in a few weeks, Angelo's farm will be bringing organic greens, all sorts of lettuces, kales etc.
