Eat your veggies!

Our Senior Partner Lynwen Hughes was kind enough to let us know that the new Altadena Farmers' Market is having their grand opening tomorrow, Wednesday May 30th, 3-7pm at Loma Alta Park in Altadena.  There are so many great Farmers' Markets throughout our communities, we thought we would share a few of our favorites.  

Arizona Ave. - Wednesdays 8:30am-1:30pm
Main Street - Sundays 9:30am-1:00pm
There's so much to see at the Santa Monica Farmers' Markets - Chef's, celebrities, pony rides, petting zoo, music.  These markets are dense, and vibrant.

The Main Street Farmers' Market has a bike valet!


South PasadenaThursdays 4-8pm
Unlike so many other Farmers' Markets that are squeezed into parking lots, the South Pasadena market has a great neighborhood vibe.  Located in the heart of South Pas on the corner of Mission and Meridian and right next to the Gold Line Metro, this market is surrounded by independently owned shops and restaurants.

Yamashiro's: Thursdays 5-9pm 
Hands down, Yamishiro's wins the prize for the Farmers' Market with the best view.  And better yet, you can enjoy it with a glass of wine (or beer).
