America's Biggest Farmers Markets Are Must-Visits

"Stepping into the compact, maze-like market at 3rd and Fairfax feels like walking into LA history—since 1934 it has offered more than 100 stalls, stores, and cafes serving gourmet foods, fresh produce, and global flavors, with some businesses nearly as old as the market itself. I enjoy the free samples from Kaylin Pickles, award-winning Bennett’s Ice Cream, and Littlejohn’s House of English Toffee, and the market’s long history of family-owned businesses has hosted figures from President Eisenhower to The Beatles. After sampling, try the famous gumbo or po’boys from The Gumbo Pot and a slice of pie from Du-par’s." - Veronica Stoddart
