1 week agoThe Berkeley Flea Market is officially back and legal again
Attendance had fallen off. The number of weekly vendors had declined from about 200 a decade ago to 20 or 30. And the market's nonprofit operator, Community Services United (CSU), was struggling to keep it afloat as it lost up to $10,000 a month. But the flea market's remaining vendors weren't ready to bid goodbye. And even after CSU gave up its lease of the Ashby BART parking lot in late June, the vendors kept showing up every Saturday and Sunday.
