Farmers Market in LA





TrolleyWhy walk when you can ride the trolley for free! The trolley is owned and operated by our neighbors at The Grove. It will pick you up in the Farmers Market Plaza and drive you down First Street to the heart of The Grove. When you have had a look around, the trolley will take you right back to the Farmers Market Plaza.

Here are a few facts about the trolley.

1. Its undercarriage is from a 1950s Boston street car.
2. It takes 6 minutes and 12 seconds to travel the 1/4 mile track between Farmers Market and the Grove, which gives you lots of time to take in the sights.
3. Go up the two spiral staircases to the upper deck for a whole new perspective on Farmers Market.

Mon - Thurs: Noon - 8pm
Fri: Noon - 10pm
Sat: 11am - 10pm
Sun: 11am -7pm
Please note: The trolley will break daily from 4pm - 5pm.

The Farmers Market is an area of food stalls, sit-down eateries, prepared food vendors, and produce markets in Los Angeles, USA. It also a historic Los Angeles landmark and tourist attraction, first opened in July 1934.
The Farmers Market features more than 100 restaurants, grocers and tourist shops, and is located just south of CBS Television City. Unlike most farmers' markets, which are held only at intervals, the Farmers' Market of Los Angeles is a permanent installation and is open seven days a week. The dozens of vendors serve many kinds of food - both American cuisine from local farmers and restaurants and Los Angeles' variety of local ethnic foods from the many immigrant communities of Los Angeles, with many Latin American and Asian cuisines well represented.

It is located at the corner of 3rd Street and Fairfax Avenue in the Fairfax District of Los Angeles, California, USA. It is adjacent to The Grove outdoor shopping mall; an electric-powered streetcar runs between the two sites.
The market is a destination for foodies in search of the market's ethnic cuisines, as well as its specialty food markets and prepared food stalls. The front of Farmers Market displays a sign saying "Meet Me at Third and Fairfax."
