Your Complete Guide to Juicing in L.A.

We've been doing a lot of juicing coverage here at LAist HQ as of late. We shared our wisdom with the folks over at the KTLA Morning News this morning, giving them the rundown on everything from detox cleanses to whole fruit juicing with a Vitamix to how to DIY with a CSA that caters to juicers. (You can watch the segment below.)
To further simplify things, we decided to bundle our coverage into one neat little package. Below you'll find the establishments mentioned in our segment, as well as our other juicing coverage.

And of course, remember these two tips to keep your juicing regimen affordable and attainable: Keep an eye out for small jugerias and farm stands like Tacos el Zorro and Farm Boy for fresh juice on the cheap, and invest in a juicer to cut down on the costs. It's a wise investment, and an efficient way to get the maximum amount of local, organic produce into your system.
As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
Simply put, we cannot do this essential work without your help. Federal funding for public media has been clawed back by Congress and that means LAist has lost $3.4 million in federal funding over the next two years. So we’re asking for your help. LAist has been there for you and we’re asking you to be here for us.
We rely on donations from readers like you to stay independent, which keeps our nonprofit newsroom strong and accountable to you.
No matter where you stand on the political spectrum, press freedom is at the core of keeping our nation free and fair. And as the landscape of free press changes, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust, but the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news from our community.
Please take action today to support your trusted source for local news with a donation that makes sense for your budget.
