Sarasota Farmers Market

June 4, 2015 by A Savory Feast 12 Comments

In addition to sharing recipes like my Dark Chocolate and Peanut Butter Granola Bars this week, I’m also sharing a few fun things to do in my hometown of Sarasota, Florida. Yesterday I talked about the Savor Sarasota Restaurant Week going on right now, and today I’m sharing another must-do weekend activity: the Sarasota Farmers Market.

Sarasota Farmers Market

Every time I go to downtown, I’m reminded that I don’t spend enough time there. There is so much to do and see! The Farmers Market is a great way to see the area.

It’s pretty hot here in Florida this time of year, so you’ll want to get to the market early to avoid the heat of the day if possible. I was wishing I had brought a hat or sunglasses. As you can see in the next picture, the sun was very bright that day!

Sarasota Farmers Market Coffee

There are lots of places to find food for breakfast or lunch at the market. I grab a cup of coffee from the Java Dawg Coffee truck almost every time I go to the farmers market. Their iced coffee was so refreshing on this hot day!

Another thing I like to do is start by getting breakfast at one of the local restaurants downtown and then walk around the market.

Do you live in Sarasota, or have you ever traveled here? One of my blogging goals lately is to share more of my favorite things to do and places to eat here in Sarasota, as well as my travel finds. You can also see more of my local favorites by following me on Instagram. 

Do you love going to your local farmers market? What is the best thing about it?

    LOVE farmer’s markets! Dallas’ isn’t the biggest or best I’ve been to, but the produce is on point, and by far some of the freshest and tastiest. And holy cow, is it ever cheap! That iced coffee is making me drool right now…

    This looks really fun! In my hometown there is a Farmer’s Market every Friday on the square and it’s always a lot of fun to walk around and see everything!

      I love going to the farmers market! Usually when I’m done I like to walk around the rest of downtown and see the other shops. We found some great thrift stores this time!

      That coffee is the best! They have a couple hot drinks that I love getting when it’s cold out. This time of year, you can’t go wrong with iced coffee.
