Walking in L.A.: The Hollywood Farmers Market


The Hollywood Farmers market on Sunday mornings is unbeatable.

Hosts lots of organic produce, exotic fruits and vegetables, local artisans, and venders. 




 Every plant you could want



   Buddhahands...?? That's a new on on me!



Cornocopia!


Pomegranates


Lots of great dry beans (and wheatgrass, if you like that sort of thing)

 
  Lobster Mushrooms


 
Autumn Royal grapes

 
Street view

 
Dragon fruit

 
I've never seen so many varieties of plums. Can't find that in a supermarket.

 
Savory root vegetables

 
Rattlesnake beans.

 
flavorful necterines

 
Pluots

 
The last of the seasonal heirlooms! I had never heard of a "mango tomato"

 
 
All kinds of cherry tomatoes

 
There's even live music. This outfit plays bluegrass. 
further up the street is a jazz ensemble, and numerous one man acts.

 
 
Interesting new mural on Ivar south of Selma.
