Awesome farmers market happening every Sunday from 9am-1pm!…read more My awesome sister told us about this little gem and we went together and absolutely loved it. Located at Wellen Park with the best little stores around it's an awesome place to stroll and enjoy some shopping, sampling and discovering awesome businesses. From fruits and veggies to food trucks to the BEST guac I've ever had in my life (you'll know when you see it and try it) this farmers market has all kinds of things. Makers, creators, healthy ops (hello mushroom tinctures) and even hazelnut butter/spread made from scratch sweetened with monk fruit. This place has so many great gems and it's also surrounded with so many great samples. That way you can try before you buy and discover something new. It's also super dog friendly so be sure to bring your furry child with you, they'll love it too!

Great selection of booths. Allows dogs. Friendly vendors.It takes place all year around.read more

I went every week while in Fl. and got big, beautiful scallops, unbelievable salmon, grouper, mahi, clams and more. Pat is the nicest guy and has great cooking suggestions. He takes his time with each customer to ensure you have exactly what you want. You can even call ahead with requests. With the right preparation and cook, this seafood rivals the best restaurants around!

The prices on most items are quite affordable and less than other stores. The aisles are neatly arranged and I found it easy to locate items I was looking for. During my visit to Florida, I think I ended up visiting about 4 times. During my visits, I purchased pre packaged peanut brittle, fresh baked cinnamon roll ($1.99), hand scooped ice cream (I believe a double scoop was $2.99), an acai bowl ($6.99) and a made fresh to order English muffin sandwich ($3.99). All of the staff was very friendly and didn't dilly dally. Everything was very good. I will definitely be visiting again when I'm in Florida.

This has been a little overdue.

I am somewhat disappointed still in the Venice store after the expansion for not having better parking and not being big enough to carry things like Milton Crackers and ANY type of Soy milk and many items the OTHER Detwiler's do carry. It's just too far to go to Stickney/Clarke or way up to Honoré as the next closest! We are forced to cheat on you with now opened Sprouts, Aldi, Publix (yes I am THAT desperate that I have to get raped a Publix which is basically a BIG 7-11 and huge rip off) , or a Winn-Dixie. For vegetables, and the majority of what we buy weekly we go to Detwiler's!!! and for the rest and things not available like paper products and beverages and etc we are Costco folks. The people at this store are awesome and maybe even nicer than the OTHER Detwiler's if that is possible? Great store, we spend many thousands per year here!

Love me a good farmers market while traveling! It's such a great way to get a taste of the local…read morefood and culture. The Venice farmers market did not disappoint. Their Saturday market is a mix of food and artisan vendors that span three to four city blocks. We purchased a variety of produce, cold brew coffee, chicken salad and olive salads. The surrounding businesses range from breakfast spots to bakeries and Italian eateries. You could make a whole morning of exploring the area. Parking was much easier than anticipated and the market is dog friendly,

We also stopped by (and got suckered into buying things after the free samples because they're just that GOOD) the German pretzel stand, the Italian ice stand (try the apple cider Italian ice!!!), the Italian bakery stand with fresh cannolis and cookies, the guacamole stand, and so much more!!

Such a fantastic find! Something for everyone with a broad variety of cultural foods including…read moreGreek German, Polish, Spanish, Mexican Jordanian, Brazilian, and Italian. Many of the booths have samples. Local fresh fruits and vegetables of every type, including tropical fruits, and some you may have never heard of! Cowabunga donuts is not to be missed, sourdough warm and fresh donuts were remarkable. Gourmet hot, sauces, pickles, popcorn, organic, dark chocolate. There's also a machinist who sharpens your scissors and your knives, etc., right at the stand! The paella stand is a sight to see cooking up authentic paella in the open air was just delicious. Aqua Fresca stand, Dole whip, fresh squeeze, lemonade, freshly roasted coffee, hot, or iced. Half a dozen artist playing live music, all the merchants have their doors open, offering Coastal, clothing, sterling silver, jewelry, candles, plants, and fresh flowers. Parking can be tight during the high season, but not too hard of a little effort. Bring sustainable shopping bags to make it easier to carry your purchases. Plan to spend the full-time from 9 to 1 as there is much to see and enjoy.
