"There is one, and only one, solution, and we have almost no time to try it. We must turn all our resources to repairing the natural world,and train all our young people to help. They want to.
We need to give them this last chance to create forests, soils, clean waters, clean energies, secure communities,stable regions, and to know how to do it from hands-on experience"
"...the greatest change we need to make is from consumption to production, even if on a small scale, in our own gardens. If only 10% of us do this, there is enough for everyone.
Hence the futility of revolutionaries who have no gardens, who depend on the very system they attack, and who produce words and bullets, not food and shelter."


- Bill Mollison

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.
