At the top of the market (Hollywood and Ivar) it was less crowded, and we found a stand selling organic California-grown brown rice and dried beans. Koda Farms is a family farming business that has been organically growing rice and beans in the San Joaquin Valley since 1910. I bought a large bag of brown rice and some chickpeas. I hadn't seen the stand before, but the salesperson said they would be at the market once a month. I'll keep my eyes open for them.
Here's what we brought home with us today:
chard
2 leeks
haas avocado
4 small plain yogurt
1 big artichoke
arugula
1/4 lb cremini mushrooms
5 pink lady apples
green beans
wax beans
2 onions
albion strawberries
small cantaloupe (1st of the year!)
3 grapefruit
1 small sweet potato
12 small red potatoes
snap peas
radishes
eggs
5 golden nugget tangerines
20 oranges
radicchio
pistachios
5 lb Kokohu Rose brown rice
2lbs chickpeas from Koda Farms

| I grew cantaloupes from seed this year - our first melon is still green. Fortunately the farmers are better at this than I am! |
