We get the fact that Bristol Farms isn't exactly cheap, but after spending 10 bucks on lettuce and broccoli we decided enough is enough. That Sunday we chose to do our produce shopping at the Beverly Hills Farmers Market, and have gone back every weekend since.

Here’s why..
The products are seasonal, local and fresh. It's is small enough not to be overwhelming, and big enough for there to be a good selection. Parking is easy and free. It’s inexpensive, and you can have a taste of just about anything before you buy it. Plus we love supporting the "Mamas & Papas" out there.

Much more then just fruits and vegetables, The Beverly Hills Farmers’ Market features dozens of specialty shops where you will find anything from specialty vinegar to fresh baked breads.

Make sure to pass by the second Greek stand (towards the back) and try some of there popular homemade artichoke hummus.. it’s amazing. While it's best to go right at 9am when it opens, we go just before noon and there's still plenty to choose from.

The Farmers’ Market a great place to either mill around and taste different fruits and cheeses or just pop in and out to get some shopping done. A good thing considering we will probably have to hit 3 other stores around LA just to buy vitamins, paper towels and turkey burgers.

Even if you don't live near Beverly Hills, hopefully we have inspired you to find a farmer's market in your neighborhood!
