3/24/24 Finally made it to this farmers' market! Today is chill, sunny & beautiful-perfect to check out another potential market to frequent.
This whole market is amazing, the crowd reminds me of the farmers market in Hollywood & a bit of the scenic Larchmont Village/district in LA. It feels like a boutique. It's fairly large, about 2 long blocks worth of vendors. If you ever take the Metrolink, this is the stop at Claremont. On one corner there's the Claremont post office and the other end (where the crafts & clothing vendors are) is the restaurant Bardot.
Of course, plenty of artisan vendors from organic grass fed meats, cheeses, mushrooms, fruits & vegetables locally sourced (mostly Riverside county, San Luis Obispo), honey, bread from Old Town (absolute fave), homemade pastas & sauces, houseplants, fresh flowers, cooked foods like hot tamales and many more. It could be a family outing type of venue but so far I've not seen tables or chairs to enjoy your goodies but there plenty of places around Claremont that are within walking distance.
There are porta potties & hand washing stations for this market. This place is definitely worth a stop & checking out. Unfortunately I did not see any cherimoya vendors but we're heading to Alhambra fmr mkt for this fruit!
By the way, parking-wise, there's free street parking available and you may certainly utilize the parking at the train station. It's definitely a neat treat because this market has great curb appeal, very organized & it's altogether picturesque.
