A farmers market takes place on the 600-900 blocks of Higuera Street each Thursday evening from 6 to 9 and at 333 Madonna Rd. Saturday mornings from 8 to 10:30. There are stalls of fresh produce as well as barbecue stands. Many retail stores remain open, and free street entertainment includes bands and puppet shows on Thursday.
