Historic Downtown San Pedro is just steps away from the waterfront and features a collage of architecture, shopping, dining, art, entertainment and browsing. With its small town atmosphere and many family-owned businesses, Historic Downtown San Pedro reminds many of the neighborhood of their youth.
A wonderful time to experience Historic Down Town San Pedro is on every Friday of the month when the Local Harvest Farmers’ Market is open between 9:00 am until 2:00 pm. Every Friday is unique at this event with local musicians performing while you shop for Certified California Grown farm fresh fruits, vegetables, plants and flowers. You can also enjoy fresh hot fare from one of our many vendors, gourmet specialty foods and treats along with shopping for that special something from one of the arts & crafts vendors.
An abundance of fresh fruits, vegetables and flowers can be found every Friday afternoon at the Hermosa Beach Farmers Market. Shoppers will be pleasantly surprised to find fruits and vegetables that are fresh-picked, vine- and tree-ripened, and sold by certified farmers who grow the products at local farms.
Strawberries, tomatoes, yellow crookneck squash, artichokes, asparagus, herbs, and pistachios all taste homegrown. Also in peak season are organically grown fruits and vegetables including strawberries, spinach, salad mix, carrots, and lettuce.
Sponsored by the Hermosa Beach Chamber of Commerce, the Farmers Market is held, rain or shine, every Friday except for the Friday after Thanksgiving.
Sample the variety of top quality produce brought in each week direct from 60 California farms. Held in Charles H. Wilson Park in Torrance, the market features a year-round selection of California grown fruits, nuts, vegetables, eggs, honey, baked goods, fish, cut flowers and nursery stock. FREE produce raffle every Tuesday at 12:00 noon!
Along with a year-round selection of California-grown fruits and vegetables, the Torrance Certified Farmers Market includes a special emphasis on Asian produce.

The Palos Verdes Land Conservancy harvests seeds that have grown for thousands of years right here on the Peninsula, and then raises them in the Conservancy’s nursery. Come be inspired by colorful, drought tolerant native plants that make fertilizers and insecticides virtually unnecessary, and require little or no water. Naturalists are on hand to give advice about the one gallon size pots ($8) and smaller sized pots ($5). Many of these species will attract butterflies and other pollinators to your yard.
