What to Know<\/p>\n
What’s tall, sparkly, completely photo-worthy, totally eye-catching, and extremely cheerful?<\/p>\n
For sure, a Christmas tree absolutely is all of these things, but so is a certain clocktower, an obelisk-type icon that has become synonymous with the Original Farmers Market.<\/a><\/p>\n And to spy the tower, or rather both of the public market’s clocks, done up in their Christmassy best, is something rather splendid when the showiest season begins to flower.<\/p>\n The season is currently flowering at the colorful corner of Third & Fairfax, which is where the Original Farmers Market has stood for over nine august decades.<\/p>\n And while the market is merry all year long, the holidays deliver an even merrier spirit to the stroll-and-nosh spot.<\/p>\n In fact, there are a few festive doings<\/a> on the market’s 2025 calendar, beginning with Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree<\/a> Dec. 12.<\/p>\n The Drummer Boy will be there for a sweet meet-and-greet, the hot chocolate is complimentary, and there’s a craft activity involving Santa hats, ho, ho, and ho.<\/p>\n It’s all sparkling from 5 to 7 p.m., which is just around the time the lights begin to twinkle in and around the Original Farmers Market.<\/p>\n Just two days later, on Dec. 14, the menorah will begin to glow at the Chanukah Celebration<\/a>, with a 5 p.m. ceremony.<\/p>\n
