The goal of the Market is to create a space that encourages nearby residents, employees, farmers, and visitors to interact with each other.

The garden focuses on sustainable, organic California wineries and local breweries. Guests ages 21 and older may enjoy the garden.

The Sunset Strip Market was developed by a committee of dedicated business owners and residents.

Diana Rodgers, a respected leader in community farmers’ markets, curated the certified farmers and vendors. Steve Portigiani created the site map and plan.
