Mission Viejo Gets Its Own Farmers Market

Hey, you Mission Viejans reading (all two of you), how you doin' down there? And what are you doing today between 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.? Did you know that your city, Mission Viejo, now hosts its own Farmers Market every Friday?

No longer should you look with envy at the three (count 'em again…THREE!) Farmers Markets that Irvine has. Or your neighbor Laguna Niguel's on Sunday. Or the one at the Laguna Hills Mall parking lot on Fridays, which, by the way, now directly competes with yours in the same time slot.

Now on its second week, the Mission Viejo Farmers Market will host the following vendors that I lifted straight from their website:
