South Park Los Angeles

farmer’s market: coming to your neighborhood.

Berries

another one? that’s probably what you’re thinking. but why not? and why not in southpark l.a.? a farmer’s market is exactly what southpark needs to get people out and about, meeting new friendly people and becoming a neighborhood.

actually, it would be more than just a farmer’s market. it would be a southpark organic cooperative that would offer more than just certified organic produce. we would bring arts and handcrafted products. everything at high quality but low prices. it would highlight shops in the area so that we could draw in more attention to the southpark neighborhood. it would be a place people could ride their bikes to or walk with their family… where they could buy fresh produce and develop friendships with the vendors they are buying from.

    Hi

    Great website!

    Just a few quick questions:

    1: Where is South Park Los Angeles? Is it downtown? All of downtown? A specific part of downtown? I know in NYC “Soho” is “South of Houston”. Is there a specific park that south park is south of? Are there geographic borders?

    2: Can you give a little more insight / background as to who you are, and what you’re goal / mission statement is? Perhaps a faq section?

    thanks

      1. It is in downtown: ringed to the north by skyscrapers, to the east by the ATT Center, to the south by the California Medical Centre, and most famously to the west of us, by The Ritz Carlton and Staples Live.

      2. I’d be happy to: you can call me, Martin Porter, at Forbes Legacy Ventures LLC directly at 213 550 4460 or email me at mcporter@flvllc.com.

      But a baseline answer?: Our goal is to turn South Park Los Angeles into a true neighborhood.

    I think your idea of bringing handcrafted arts to South Park sounds like a great idea!
