One of the most popular and profitable Farmers Market in California is fighting to survive after a clashing with L.A Film School. Hollywood Farmers Market has been servicing the community for more than 20 years and has become a major contributor for Hollywood culture and economy. It is also said to be one of the busiest and most profitable Farmers Market in California, they have around 10,000 customers on Sundays. L.A. Film School claims that one of their garage entrances is being blocked and they demand them out of there immediately, they say their student body has increased and they need their entrance clear on Sundays. The decision will take place on Monday, whether the famous Farmers Market will be shut down or not because of a parking dispute is already making a lot of residents who buy fresh fruit and other goodies there very upset. We do understand that parking there on Sundays has become a problem, since the Market increases the number of shoppers every week, but there must be another solution for this, maybe residents there could open their garage door and allow shoppers to park in their garage for a few hours, maybe they could rent their space. It is a very profitable bazaar and many people make a living out of there, if they close it more than 150 vendors will be displaced and they will lose their Sunday income of more than $130,000. With the recession and so many problems we are already facing couldn't the L.A. Film School and the City Council find an amicable solution for it? We will soon find out on Monday. Since 1991 the market has been in the heart of Hollywood and only recently parking there became an issue. You cannot simply move a market like that, it would be like moving the annual Christmas parade off Hollywood boulevard. A lot of people will suffer with this decision, there are other seven smaller Farmers' Markets that are supported by the Hollywood Farmers' market that could easily be closed, areas like: East Hollywood, Echo Park, Atwater Village, Crenshaw and Watts. How can we help? In case you live around this area and consider the Market part of your life, maybe you can get together with other residents and come out with a parking solution, renting your garage space for a few hours on a Sunday would help, you could leave your garage door open for a few hours with a sign saying $3 dollars fixed rate for Farmers' Market shoppers. The market takes place from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m and it is part of Hollywood's attraction.
