This is a very good market, used to be my regular when I lived in E. Orange.

Convenient parking, good range of vendors, incl. the essential Top Veg and Farmer Mike. Great location -- I love that Tustin has a dedicated farmers' market site, complete with sign. Got their priorities straight, looks like.

Yesterday I stopped for a moment's shopping and got some beeyootiful dark red crenelated Lolo Rosso lettuce and juicy turnips from Top Veg, blackberries from the berry guy ($10/3-pk. here; $11 @ Lag Hls, and $13 at Irvine UCI), strawberries from the Redlands people, just $5/3-pk.!

And of course, no small benefit in being literal mere steps away from Cream Pan/Japonaise, neither -- baguette for dinner and multi-grain for the next day, plus sweeties, incl. the new and quite ethereal Mont Blanc, Le Mangeur's current fave tiramisu, and Ivan's constant fruit tart.
