No matter what part of Los Angeles you call home -- you are never far from a local Farmer's Market every weekend.
Whether it's the Saturday markets held in Burbank, Santa Monica and Calabasas or Sunday browsing in Beverly Hills and Encino, farm vendors carry everything from mushrooms and crisp apples to new crop strawberries, asparagus and artichokes.
To find a market close by, check out www.farmernet.com/events/cfns. And check out the free weekly report on the best values in fruits and vegetables by clicking onto "Fresh Facts" at www.FPFC.org. Bring your own reusable shopping bag and don't forget that merchants appreciate if you have exact change as all sales are cash.
Until our next food find...may all your food finds be fabulous!
