What's Cooking at the Farmer's Market

Farmer Eleazar with farm-fresh strawberries.

Farmer's markets are the best places to find the tastiest seasonal produce growing right now in California. When you shop at the farmer's market, you are not only buying the freshest and most nutritious produce around, but you are directly supporting local farmers!

Longwood, Burbank, and Park schools are lucky enough to have a certified farmer's market on campus, making it easy for students, families, and even teachers to buy fresh, organic produce.

Chef Eva and Chef Shira made the following quick and easy recipe with produce all from the farmer’s market at Longwood Elementary School! Click on the link below for the recipe.
