Like this one &#8211; Field Trips!<\/h2>\n<p>I feel like I totally lucked out when I moved to LA. I had no desire to A: live here and B: stay here&#8230; but after 6 years I kinda couldn&#8217;t imagine living anywhere else. I have access to some of the most amazing farmers markets on earth and there are countless day trips surrounding the LA area. Thomas and I are making a serious effort to visit as many of them as possible and I wanted to bring you along for the ride!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev.afterhoursagency.com\/wgc\/field-trip-antelope-valley\/ga9a2537\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-16376\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-16376 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/GA9A2537.jpg\" alt=\"Antelope Valley California\" width=\"870\" height=\"580\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/GA9A2537.jpg 870w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/GA9A2537-250x166.jpg 250w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/GA9A2537-160x106.jpg 160w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/GA9A2537-260x173.jpg 260w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/GA9A2537-360x240.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So last weekend we packed up the car for a little excursion to Antelope Valley. It&#8217;s basically the poppy reserve of California and it&#8217;s crazy gorgeous &#8211; not to mention mega windy. We grabbed a picnic and headed north!!<\/p>\n<p>If you live in LA or anywhere near LA, you&#8217;ve got to go! There are about 2 more weeks of poppy season and then you&#8217;ll probably have to wait for next year. But you can check in on their <a href=\"http:\/\/www.parks.ca.gov\/?page_id=627\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">website<\/a> where they will give you up to date info on all things poppies!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev.afterhoursagency.com\/wgc\/field-trip-antelope-valley\/ga9a2660\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-16375\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-16375 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/GA9A2660.jpg\" alt=\"Antelope Valley Poppy Reserve California\" width=\"870\" height=\"580\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/GA9A2660.jpg 870w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/GA9A2660-250x166.jpg 250w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/GA9A2660-160x106.jpg 160w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/GA9A2660-260x173.jpg 260w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/GA9A2660-360x240.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After getting our fill of poppies we headed back to LA to visit one of my favorite farmers markets in Brentwood! If you&#8217;re in LA you&#8217;ve absolutely got to visit the Brentwood or Hollywood Farmers Markets on Sunday and the Santa Monica farmers market on Wednesday. Life changing. And get the pupusas. Omg. Best Sunday brunch ever.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16379\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/photo-14.jpg\" alt=\"photo 1\" width=\"870\" height=\"870\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/photo-14.jpg 870w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/photo-14-199x199.jpg 199w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/photo-14-250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/photo-14-120x120.jpg 120w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/photo-14-180x180.jpg 180w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/photo-14-268x268.jpg 268w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We made a quick loop through the market, grabbed our weeks worth of veggies and then stopped by the new <a href=\"https:\/\/farmerspickbywelchs.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Welch&#8217;s<\/a> booth to visit my friends at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sheknows.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">SheKnows<\/a> and learn all about their latest and greatest product&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/farmerspickbywelchs.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Farmer&#8217;s Pick by Welch&#8217;s<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16380\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Desktop43.jpg\" alt=\"Desktop43\" width=\"870\" height=\"580\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Desktop43.jpg 870w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Desktop43-250x166.jpg 250w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Desktop43-160x106.jpg 160w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Desktop43-260x173.jpg 260w, https:\/\/cdn.whatsgabycooking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Desktop43-360x240.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s basically my new favorite thing and I&#8217;m planning on sipping on the mango variety&nbsp;all summer long.&nbsp;Farmer&#8217;s Pick by Welch&#8217;s is a line of 100% juices that contains nothing artificial and tastes like heaven!
