Farmers Market Series: Oakland Grand Lake

Marin Farmers Market presents the Oakland Grand Lake Farmers Market, Saturday from 9 am to 2 pm.

Located at Splash Pad Park (walking distance from Lake Merritt), you will find live music, a plethora of local organic produce, meat, seafood and other goodies. Be on the lookout for the La Cascada booth - their fish tacos are pretty damn good, not the best I've ever had, but definitely worth giving a try.

'Go itsy. Go itsy. Go Itsy, GO!'
