A Farmers' Market In Beverly Hills?

Yes! Let's go! Now in its 15th year, the Beverly Hills certified Farmers' Market is open Sunday mornings at the 9300 block of Civic Center Drive (9A - 1P). There's even this fun mascot featured on the Beverly Hills Farmers' Market produce cloth bag by artist Gary Baseman. (If you are interested in this bag, post a comment and we will contact you with details.)

As you can see, it was a glorious day with the gilded dome of the Beverly Hills City Hall in the far distance.

I was so thrilled to see so much certified organic produce . . . this sign brought music to my ears! There's an exclusive section devoted to certified organics which makes shopping a breeze.


Just look at this honey display!


I stopped here and picked up some amazing organic white peaches . . . the fruit just fell of the stone nut and packed with flavor.




Check out the organic strawberries! There are themed events which change each Sunday such as a pie bake "piesta" (I wonder if there will be any organic certified pies? - could be a great excuse to indulge!).
