Let’s Get Local: Punta Gorda Farmers Market

Did you know that the Punta Gorda Farmers Market was voted the ‘Best Small Market in Florida’ and 15th in the USA? Wow!

If you’re not convinced, here’s what you can find at the market… Fruits and vegetables, dried fruits and nuts, Italian bakery items, fresh homemade pasta, kitchenware, cupcakes, beef and fresh seafood, fresh citrus, jewelry, candles and soaps, dip mixes, Florida arts and crafts, cheese, French bakery, baguettes and olives, homemade pies, orchids, organic produce, personalized pens, kettlecorn, honey, coffee beans and drinks, native and exotic plants. Whew that’s a lot!

What makes our market special though isn’t the shopping, but the people. Here, you will find couples grocery shopping, kids eyeing the kettlecorn stand, and dogs with sweet smiles on their faces - good old-fashioned quality time.

If you haven’t had the chance to, we think you should make a plan to visit the market. The market is hosted every Saturday: October-April from 8 AM to 1 PM and May-September from 8 AM to 12 PM. See you there!
