The Original Los Angeles Farmers Market

This farmers market is quite different than those that pop up in parking lots on Saturdays and Sundays. This one, located right next door to the Grove shopping center, is permanent and built in. There is also less of a focus on produce and more focus on dining. My favorite place to eat at the farmer's market is Du-Pars, but there are many other options where you just order at a counter and go eat at any of the tables around the market. If you are in a hurry, ¡Lotería! Grill offers great Mexican food. Besides just food, there are mini shops inside the market. One I always visit is the sticker store called Sticker Planet. I can't name everything offered at the Los Angeles Farmers Market here, but if you want to read more about it, check out http://www.farmersmarketla.com/index.shtml.

I've always liked visiting farmers markets wherever I am. One thing that New York City does not have is the freshest produce, perhaps because we are not as close to the farming industry as one is in California. You only need to go to the grocery store in Los Angeles and you will find the most colorful and delicious-looking vegetables.

There are a lot of small stores in the Fairfax Farmers Market. One of my favorites is All Spice where they sell every spice you can think of. Everything in there smells so good you just want to open up every bottle and take a sniff.

There are taco and pizza stands. Fresh fruits are also for sale, either whole or sliced. We were not the only ones hanging out in here; it seems the farmers market is too precious to just leave to the tourists.
