Our local farmers markets are in full bloom and with such a variety of incredible goods to choose from, it’s impossible to list all our favorites. So we’re spotlighting a few and encourage you to go out and discover your own treasured treats.
West Palm Beach’s GreenMarket
The line to get a cone of Cider Doughnuts is lengthy but worth the wait. Made with fresh apple cider and served warm with a dusting of sugar, they’ll satisfy your sweet tooth. Another line to conquer is Bartnick’s Bagels, which sells a variety of bagels, spreads and house-cured lox. For a different type of doughy treat, head to Baguette Plus Baking Co. where you’ll of course find baguettes, but also a slew of binge-worthy pastries. Pair your snacks with Floridian Coffee Roasters coffee or Tea With Benefits tea. A few more favorites include The Cheese Shoppe for artisan cheese from around the world, Okeechobee Farms for beef broth, grass fed beef or lamb and farm fresh eggs, Dogdeli for your furry friends, Pascale’s for small batch jams and One World Zero Waste for eco-friendly home and beauty products.
