For the past 17 years, the South Pasadena Farmers’ Market, put on by the South Pasadena Chamber of Commerce, has provided fresh produce and goods from local vendors to the community. If you’re looking for a new way to spend your Thursday evenings, check out the farmers’ market for a fun way to pass the time and to get healthy!
The South Pasadena Farmers’ Market takes place every Fall and Winter, regardless of the weather conditions (except on the Thanksgiving holiday). From 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm, people come together to enjoy fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as getting involved in the community through local nonprofits.
