The Hollywood Farmers' Market is considered by many to be "the front porch of Hollywood." |
The Hollywood Farmers' Market urgently needs your help now to show City officials that the community wants to save the Hollywood Farmers' Market.
The City has issued a limited 30 day permit to the Hollywood Farmers' Market (valid until Jan. 12) during which time the City anticipates negotiating a resolution. We appreciate greatly your outpouring of support during the recent weeks. On Thursday morning, Dec. 16, Councilman Garcetti (who represents the district in which the market is located) will attend a meeting with SEE-LA, the LA Film School, and other city officials. We believe that it is crucial for the City leaders to hear our community's voices before the meeting.
If you want to support the Hollywood Farmers' Market in its hour of need, we urge you to send an email message or call Councilmember Garcetti -- TODAY, Dec. 15, before the Thursday morning meeting. In your email message or phone call, we ask that you ask respectfully that the Councilman do all he can to assist the market with the following principles in mind:
1) The market not be reduced in size;
2) The safety of the vendors and customers not be compromised; and 3) That the market remains fully accessible to the community.
Councilman Garcetti's email address is: councilmember.garcetti@lacity.org.
You can send a copy of your email to us at info@farmernet.com.
His office phone numbers are: 323-957-4500 (Hollywood field office) and 213-473-7013 (City Hall office).
Please forward this email immediately to your friends and neighbors who support the Hollywood Farmers' Market. We need an outpouring of community support TODAY, Dec. 15.
