Sunday Market Expands with Local Makers Row

Glendale, CA · June 14, 2026

The marine layer is holding steady this morning, providing a cool start for the early crowd at the harvest market. It is a perfect day to walk the neighborhood before the afternoon sun breaks through.

📰 The Lead

The Montrose Harvest Market is stretching its legs this morning with the debut of "Makers Row," a new permanent expansion dedicated to local artisans. Starting today, the section of Honolulu Avenue near Ocean View Boulevard will host twenty additional stalls featuring everything from hand-thrown ceramics to locally milled woodwork. This expansion comes after a year-long pilot program showed a high demand for non-produce goods that reflect the neighborhood's creative streak. Organizers have curated the new section to ensure that the makers are based within a twenty-mile radius, keeping the hyperlocal promise of the market intact. For residents, it means the Sunday morning ritual now offers a bit more variety without losing the small-town feel that has defined the market for decades. Expect the usual live jazz near the intersection of Wickham Way to provide the soundtrack for the new additions.
