Farmer John's Murals
3049 E. Vernon Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90058  

In 1957 Barney and Francis began a project to beautify the plant that soon became a tourist attraction. They commissioned Les Grimes, a talented painter of scenic backgrounds for Hollywood movie sets, to create a farm mural on one wall. The result was so inspiring, Les continued to paint the mural until his passing in 1968. Arno Jordan continued the legacy by painting new murals and restoring Grimes' originals.
