L.A.'s Farmers Market celebrates 75 years (US Today)
Through US Today:
L.A.'s famous Farmers Market at Third and Fairfax is marking its 75th year with a week-long celebration in mid-July.
The Farmers Market was founded during the Great Depression when a couple of entrepreneurs came up with the idea of a European-style village square where artisans could sell handmade goods and local farmers would sell produce. The market opened on July 14, 1934, with a dozen farmers and a few other vendors parking trucks on what had been a dairy farm and an oil field.
