New Summer Hours for the Farmer’s Market

The Downtown Santa Ana Farmer’s Market was recently featured in Orange Coast magazine and has quickly created a buzz. Located in the East End promenade by the Yost Theater, the market takes place every Thursday from 4-8 pm during the summer.

Local restaurants are sourcing from the market and creating fresh dishes around local faire. Some of the great items featured every week include fresh fruits and vegetables, specialty Asian vegetables from Brother’s Farm, Tarte Paan desserts, vegan desserts, meat, specialty coffee, artisan bread, salts, oils, and more.

Veterans Resource Center Grand Opening

The Santa Ana Public Library, with the support of the State Library and in coordination with CalVet, will be opening a Veterans Resource Center on June 20th. The Center provides veterans an area to engage in researching benefits, completing applications, and, on occasion, meeting with veteran service organization representatives. The Veterans Resource Center is made possible in collaboration with Veterans Upward Bound at Santa Ana College.
We invite all veterans, their families, veteran support organizations, and the community to attend the grand opening of this valuable resource center in the City of Santa Ana on Friday, June 20th, at 3 pm and show our support and gratitude to all veterans.
