Wednesday is the day before Halloween, so why not test-drive your costume ideas at the Altadena Farmers' Market tomorrow?
And while you're at it, dance the night away: The Connected Dancer will be holding their Autumn Harvest Dance right at the Farmer's Market. There will be free dance lessons, performances, costume parade and contest, and dancing in the grass. Celebrate the autumn harvest and swing around your favorite partner! Absolutely free - all ages and feet welcome!
In the food realm, market manager Joseph Shuldiner tells us:
Our friends at Common Loon Kitchen & Grocery have made a hot sauce sourced mostly from the Altadena Farmers' Market. We have peppers at Ellwood Canyon Farms, apples at Ha's Apple Farm, and Etheridge Canyon Farm, and onion, garlic and carrots from Moua Farm. Peppers are going out of season soon so be sure to stock up for pickling and drying. Apples, carrots, onion, and garlic can be used together in a number of variations. But a coleslaw or pureed soup come to mind.
The Altadena Farmers' Market will be from 3-7 PM Wednesday, Oct. 30, at Loma Alta Park, 600 W. Palm Street.
