In a district with many outstanding small businesses and local entrepreneurs, Stacey Whitney, manager of the Altadena Farmers Market has gone above and beyond through the Altadena Farmers Market. The market is well known for its fresh home grown produce, community friendly environment and its sustainability efforts including a zero-waste initiative. Thank you, Stacey, for your unconquerable spirit. We would also like to thank the Department of Parks & Recreation and Supervisor Kathryn Barger for their support to the Altadena Farmer’s Market. We would not be able to have a farmer’s market without your support. Again, thank you.
