A new Lakewood Farmers Market will open on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on the city property at Del Amo Blvd. and Clark Ave., starting Jan. 7, rain or shine. (The current forecast calls for mostly cloudy skies on Saturday.)
The Farmers Market will feature California-certified fresh produce, crafts and pre-packaged goods, with 20-30 vendors joining throughout the month as the market grows in size. The number of vendors may be smaller in number the first few weeks of operation.

Plus...hot prepared foods, such as tacos, burritos, quesadillas, tamales, smoked BBQ meats, vegan dishes, coffee and iced coffee drinks. There will be a shaded dining area too.
