The Sarasota Farmers Market - Every Saturday
The Sarasota Farmers Market is open every Saturday, 7 a.m. – 1 p.m. Organizers have instituted guidelines for both vendors and customers to make a visit safe and enjoyable. Vendors are spread 10-15 feet apart to make more room for you to socially distance yourself as you shop. Vendors are now located on 1st Street, State Street, and Lemon Ave. Also, please know that since they are located in the city limits of Sarasota, masks are required to be worn when attending the market. 🛍️
