Our co-founders have been sharing their favorite spots with others this past week, but then we realized that we hadn’t shared it with YDT Readers…Ekk.  So without further ado, here are our co-founders favorite things to do in L.A. on any given weekend.

Get Your Green Drink On: Drink and socialize with other like-minded Angelenos at one of the six rotating “LA Green Drinks.”  Tonight, you’ll find the Valley Edition Happening at the Mindful Nest in Burbank.  Learn more at  lagreendrinks.blogspot.com.

Volunteer with Eco Non-Profits: Roll up your sleeves and prepare to get dirty. Whether you’re interested in beach clean-ups, forest restoration, healthy eating or planting trees, you’re sure to find an organization that will appreciate your helping hands. We can’t say enough about the good work courtesy of local organizations like Treepeople and Heal the Bay. On this weekend’s radar, Heal the Bay is hosting a Benefit Concert at the G2 Gallery in Venice on Friday and TreePeople is participating in a Million Trees LA planting in Brentwood.

Munch on Eco-Friendly Taco Trucks: Food trucks are in like never before, and fortunately alot of them have some eco-cred.  You can follow some of our favorite ones on Twitter to find out where they’ll be next.  @Gastrobus @bordergrill @coolhaus @Greentruck @letsbefrank @frysmith

Walk in LA: They say that no body walks in LA, we’ll now that just ain’t true.  L.A.’s a great place to walk, if you know where.  Some of our favorite walks include Runyon Canyon, the Santa Monica and Echo Parks Stairs.  For a more detailed selection of walks, check out the book Walking in LA.  You’d be surprise at the walkable gems you’ll find around the city.

Re-Discover Vintage: As the saying goes, “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure” and there’s a lot of treasure to be had in the vintage stores and flea markets surrounding LA.

On our radar is the Fairfax Flea Market in West Hollywood, (every Sunday at Fairfax and Melrose)  Warwick in Echo Park (at Sunset Blvd and Echo Park Ave) and Give + Take in Play Del Rey (at Culver and Vista Del Mar).

Shop at your  Farmer’s Market: Let’s face it, most people envy us because we’re blessed with pretty good weather year round.   So take advantage of the good weather by eating delicious food grown locally.  Not only are you supporting local farms, you’re eating freshest stuff out there (even the best chefs around town are shopping at the farmer’s market).  We love the energy at the Hollywood and Santa Monica markets, both take place on Sunday.  Find out where you’re nearest farmer’s market takes place at http://www.farmernet.com/events/cfms.

If you’re at the Hollywood Farmer’s Market on Sunday, check out the Farmer’s Kitchen, a non-profit kitchen that is serving up fresh food cooked straight from the market and is only open on Sundays.
