Visited the Winter Garden Farmers Market this past weekend, and I have to say that this is probably…read morethe best farmers market in the Central FL area. Parking was easy, free, and conveniently located to all the festivities which is a huge plus. This is also one of the few local markets where I've actually seen a large selection of fresh produce and and farm goods available. It was refreshing to see so many people bring their market bags on wheels, wagons, etc. ready to purchase fresh fruits & veggies and support our local farmers. Beautiful watermelons, tomatoes, papaya, lettuces, corn, peppers, zucchini, and more. There's a good mix of vendors ranging from jewelry and handcrafted goods to food trucks and specialty food items. We got mango coladas, mango flower with tajin, breakfast tacos, and of course, kettle corn. Huge plus that there is the downtown splash pad for all the kids to play right in the middle of all the action. It was a HOT one and this was a great way for my little guy to cool off and burn some energy while we sat and enjoyed our food. If you have kids, I highly suggest they wear their swimsuits and bring some towels to dry off.

Restrooms close by and lots of different food options. This last time we came the rain was coming so they were packing up real fast.

Views of some great local vendors and dogs make make me happy.

There was a nice variety of vendors selling crafts, fresh foods, baked goods, and more, along with live music that gave the market a lively, welcoming atmosphere. We considered buying a loaf of bread but decided to pass this time. My son ordered a coconut drink served inside a pineapple, which was a fun experience. The ironic part is that he's mildly allergic to pineapple, so he only drank the coconut water while my husband happily ate the pineapple itself! It gave us a laugh, and I reminded my son that next time it's perfectly okay to ask if the drink can be served another way or to mention his allergy before ordering. Overall, this is a charming little market that fits the character of the town. It's a great place to wander, browse, listen to music, and enjoy the local atmosphere. I don't know how many times I would need to go here but it was a fun stop for us. It was very sunny out so make sure you wear a hat or take a walk by the water where there are trees and benches.

There are various small eateries and shops, and the price range can be a bit high as they are boutiques. However, the quality is great at every place I went.

I definitely want to try Norigami sushi next time I visit. There is occasional events and entertainment at the facility. When I was there, a guitarist was playing at the brewery. I was able to find parking in the back, and it was free and relatively easy. This is a fun and great marketplace in Winter Garden. I need to visit there more often. Overall: A

I had passed by this barn-like structure near downtown Orlando before and wondered what it was…read more Well, it is a very busy meat and produce store! We went on a Sunday and the parking lot was packed so we had to circle to find a spot. Luckily, there seem to always be people coming AND going so it only took a few minutes. Freshfields Farm is split up into 3 distinct areas - the fresh meat store, the fresh produce store, and the ice cream (and hot dog) window. We decided to head to the meat entrance first. The area is not that big but it is just lots of selections of fresh meat, cheese and butter. The meats seemed to be pretty good prices, slightly below Publix where I normally shop. There was ground beef, turkey, steak, chicken and seafood. Plus some huge cuts of meat like picanha and ribs. If you are going to have a BBQ, this is the place to go. Also, workers were constantly bringing out new packages and some people were waiting for them. I picked up 2 pounds of ground beef and some boneless, skinless chicken breasts. The cashiers were nice and super quick. Then we headed outside and then next door to the produce section. Basically the same as the meat department but filled with produce. There were bins of fresh strawberries when we walked in as well as avocados, a whole section of bananas and plantains, rainbow carrots, and even full cacao pods! I'm guessing they just showcase fresh seasonal produce so for example, while there were fresh plums, I didn't see navel oranges. There was also a fridge case full of squeezed juices and lemonades. And a big section of various types of mushrooms. I got a package of sliced cantaloupe and a big pack of 30 eggs. We checked out the ice cream window, which looked super yummy but because we hadn't eaten lunch yet, we decided we'll come back another time to try it.

Perhaps it'll get bigger as time goes on. Right now, they usually have the massage/spa place (Indigo Spa & Wellness), as well as a variety of homemade goods and food, like honey, banana bread, empanadas, and cheese. They also sell produce. There's plenty of parking along the street, and you don't have to fight the crowds of the other farmer's markets. I'd recommend checking it out, especially if you live in the Summerport/Independence area. The only downside is that it's from 10 AM - 2 PM, which is when it's hot. They seem to change the times occasionally, so check out the Facebook page to confirm the market's times.

Here we are today, 9/17 at 11am and there's no farmers market. I checked their Facebook and there was nothing posted. On Google and here on Yelp, they are open today during the mentioned times. I read someone else's review and she mentioned that they change their times? I'm not sure what's going on with it but I give up. I'd rather just keep going to the Winter Garden farmers market on Saturdays.

As we drove into the area, we could see the tents and lights and it was obvious from the getgo that this was going to be a serious market. There was plenty of space to park, and all close to the market. We arrived about 10 minutes after it opened and it was already busy with customers. There were a lot of vendors, from face painting to candied almonds to all the different salsas, barbecue sauces, and jewelry; there were a few food vendors, I thought there would be more, but hey, it's the first one. They Apopka Police Department had a demonstration of their K9 unit which was awesome! My favorite thing, though, was the fact that they had produce- which is the whole point of a farmers market in the first place! So many fruits and vegetables, and really good prices, cheaper than any of the local grocery stores. Plus, they had a fresh seafood dealer, and talk about fresh- I just wish you could eat it there- but I purchased some Stone Crab Claws and took them home and they were delicious! For the first one, I was very impressed, and I am sure it will even get better from here. I highly suggest you check it out, every Thursday from 5:30 to 8:30!

We were on our way to family in Ocala early in the morn when i knew it was time to stop for some coffee(the wife doesnt do wel without her java). I did a quick search for a spot, and saw a dunkin nearby. I exited the highway and headed that way. as I got closer I grinned. I had never been to the Villages. My gal didn't know what that was so as we pulled up and parked she said, "what town is this". I just played dumb. We walked into the Brownwood square and I had to tell her. She really didn't know much about the Villages so I filled her in. for my first impression it was great. The farmers market wrapped around the square and trickled out to the side streets some as well. They had the usual thing you would hope for like produce and pieces of art made by locals. But it had other things you dotn see often like some more quirky artisans, multiple flower and plant booths, empanadas, and the one that hooked me, a both that had all kind of mushrooms to eat. We swing by here about once a month for the farmers market, and enjoy it every time.

5 Stars for a farm CSA that has helped level-up my nutrition!…read more I recently signed up for the 4Roots Fresh CSA where I get a box of all-local vegetables and some farm fresh eggs delivered to my house every week. It's a fantastic program and though I love an IRL farmer's market, I don't have the ability to go weekly. The delivery fee is under $10 and so far every week has provided plenty of produce that has challenged me to cook more and eat healthy, farm fresh veggies! Highly recommend checking out their CSA program and trying it out. You can skip weeks, cancel, add one-time items (like amish butter!!), etc very easily from the website.

Plus its fun! 4Roots Farm came across my IG feed and immediately, yes, had to visit. It is located on John Young Pkwy, off of E. Colonial Dr. There is plenty of parking. It is so pretty. As soon as you drive up you can see all the different types of flowers planted and growing along the driveway. Zinnias, dahlias, sunflowers & marigolds. As you walk up towards the vendors there are many more flowers, herbs and trees planted. There are flower, juice, tea, mango vendorsand the farm stand outside. The farm stand has lettuce! So happy to see lettuce. Peppers of every kind, mellow star shishito, poblano, cubanelle, jalapeño. There were not much tomatoes. But there was squash, ginger, potatoes, a variety of mushrooms, okra & green beans. Inside, in there class rooms there are food vendors, sweet things like marshmallow treats, jams, honey, spices, sourdough bread. They have jewelry & other knick knacks. They hold classes where they teach gardening & eating anti-inflammatory, creating moss balls. I was gifted a chocolate mint plant and a giant branch of Hawaiian Molokai purple sweet potato to plant. It's a pretty place to wonder & wander.
