      On  Saturday, July 6th, the weekly Pasadena farmers market was bustling.

      By Kayleigh Scott

      The market first began in 1980 and has been serving the Pasadena area ever since. The market is tucked in between Victory Park (where baseball games were in full swing) and Pasadena High School.

      With sustainability in mind, marketgoers are greeted with signs recommending that they bring reusable bags. Families, friends, and solo attendees browse the wide selection of seasonal fruits and vegetables from small, family-owned farms.

      Olive oil, wine, honey, handmade nut butter, eggs, and lush plants are among some of the decadent treats. Organizations such as the American Civil Liberties Union, and California EBT were present as well. EBT has been a partner since the market was established and offers up to 20$ in credit toward fresh food.

      Pasadena Farmers' Market has two locations:
      Tuesdays at Villa Park
      363 East Villa Street
      8:30 am to 12:30 pm
      Saturdays at Victory Park
      2900 block of North Sierra Madre Blvd
      8:30 am to 12:30 pm
