The twinkling sun peering from every tree is one of my favorite things about the Santa Monica Food Market. The "California Certified Farmers' Markets (CFM's) were established in 1978, when then-governor Jerry Brown signed legislation known as the Direct Marketing Act. This enabled California farmers to sell their own produce directly to consumers at locations designated by the Department of Agriculture goals of providing reasonably priced, high quality produce to the city's population, and bringing more foot traffic into the downtown area." The Market has never ceased to disappoint me with either its culture or food products. There is every type of people imaginable there wether he has soft cimmerian skin, she has smaragdine eyes, or he has aeneous hair; everyone is accepted, even children. People of different styles ranging from hipster to bohemian is present. While the Market only sells one style of clothing, no one is looked at weird for shopping out of their style. The food also ranges from different colors to different flavors. A person can either eat there or take some food home. The only thing I would sort of change would be the seating. There is a little cafe in the middle of the Market and there are only so many seat, which is annoying because sometimes after a long day of shopping for either food or clothes there, you want to sit! I find this a great public place because any body can set up a tent and sell their goods. It has almost everything a public place needs: culture, variety, a bathroom, and serenity. Has anyone ever been there? The Market only runs on Sundays; so if you have a chance of going, tell me how you like it and if you think it is a great public place!
