Historic Core Farmers Market
Join us every week for fresh produce, artisanal goods, crafts, and community connection in the heart of Downtown LA.
Vendor ApplicationAbout the Market
Founded in 2012 by Executive Director Blair Besten and the Historic Core BID—in partnership with the Southland Farmers Market Association—our market is a cornerstone of Downtown LA life. Distinguished by its resilience, it was one of only six continuously operating farmers markets in Los Angeles County during the COVID-19 pandemic.
We bring together the region's best farmers and artisans to provide fresh produce, unique handmade goods, and delectable foods from the local LA community. Our commitment to the community includes the Market Match program, which provides over $10,000 in free, healthy food to neighbors in need every month. Whether you're a resident or visitor, join us to connect with the community and support local producers.
EBT/SNAP with Market Match
We believe healthy food should be accessible to all. Visit the info booth to use your EBT card and learn about Market Match—doubling your buying power for fresh fruits and vegetables.
