Best Local Farmers Markets to Visit This Summer

Best Local Farmers Markets to Visit This Summer

 
Access to fresh produce year-round is one of the perks of living on the Paradise Coast, and summer is an especially good time to find fresh, local ingredients for all of your culinary creations. Most Paradise Coast communities have at least one weekly farmers market, some have more than one, and you can also visit local farms to pick up produce straight from the source. Our real estate agents have more details on the best local farmers markets for you to visit on the Paradise Coast this summer.

  • Vanderbilt Farmers Market – 2355 Vanderbilt Beach Rd., Naples, FL 34109

    The Vanderbilt Farmers Market is the longest-running farmers market in North Naples, typically featuring more than 90 vendors for its weekly sessions. This market is held every Saturday morning from 8:00 AM to noon at the Shoppes at Vanderbilt. You'll find a wide range of goods here, including locally grown produce, fresh baked goods, specialty foods, home goods, unique décor, and so much more.

  • Pine Ridge Road Farmers Market – 3370 Pine Ridge Rd., Naples, FL 34105

    The Pine Ridge Road Farmers Market meets every Sunday morning throughout the summer at the corner of Livingston Road and Pine Ridge Road around the corner from Naples luxury homes for sale. The market is open from 9:00 AM to noon, with a wide range of local farmers, artisans, chefs, bakers, businesses, and artists offering a great selection that varies every week. Though you should always check before visiting, many local farmers markets, including this one, are also pet-friendly.

  • Third Street South Farmer's Market – 1207 3rd St. S., Naples, FL 34102

    Third Street South is an excellent place for an evening of fine dining, drinks, and premium shopping anytime, and it's also the location of the outstanding Third Street South Farmer's Market, which takes place every summer Saturday from 7:30 – 11:30 AM. The selection of fresh produce is extensive, and this is the perfect place to shop if you're looking for prepared, gourmet-quality food from local artisans.

  • Farmer Mike's U Pick – 26031 Morton Ave., Bonita Springs, FL 34135

    Farmer Mike's U Pick 
    is a great example of the local farmers and producers who supply Paradise Coast farmers markets with fresh produce all summer long.

You can also visit the farm anytime for fresh, u-pick produce. You can find out what's currently in season at the farm by visiting the Farmer Mike's U Pick website.

  • St. Paul's Farmers' Market – 3901 Davis Blvd., Naples, Florida 34104

    Living on the Paradise Coast means that farmers market season lasts all year long. File the St. Paul's Farmers' Market, which meets every Saturday from mid-November through mid-April, away for all of your fall shopping needs. This market is more focused on fresh ingredients and prepared foods rather than other items, so be sure to bring your appetite when you visit.

  • Southern Fresh Farms – 8500 Penzance Blvd., Fort Myers, FL 33912

    Southern Fresh Farms 
    is a non-profit, educational farm that has become a popular agro-tourism destination, in addition to being a great place to shop.
