Get it fresh at Farmer's markets in Naples, FL

Get up and head out to the farmer’s market for fresh fruit and veggies while you’re in Naples, Florida. There are three markets to choose from. Each offers something a bit different.





#1 - 3RD STREET FARMER’S MARKET
The farmer’s market in the heart of downtown not only has fresh fruit and veggies, but also features local artwork. Right near Tommy Bahama’s on 3rd Street So., the market is open Saturdays from 7:30 to 11:30 a.m. Extension Agents and Master Gardeners are on site November through May.

#2 - THE GREEN MARKET
Plan to eat brunch while you’re at the farmer’s market at Goodlette Road N. and Golden Gate Parkway, in the green space east of the IBERIABANK Centre. It’s just a stones throw away from the Naples Zoo.

If you’re lucky, an animal (such as a Wallaby) from a nearby wildlife sanctuary (Kowiachobee) will be there. Save room for the specialty varieties of mac and cheese at the Madam Mac booth. Flavors include Jalepeno and Bacon Mac, Garden of Eden Mac (veggie mac), Original Mac, and Magical Mac with Blue Lump Crab.

Hours of operation:
October 27th through April 27th
Every Saturday from 8 a.m. - 1 p.m.

#3 - PINE RIDGE ROAD/AIRPORT PULLING ROAD N. SHOPPING MALL PARKING LOT
