Florida Farmers Markets: St Petersburg Saturday Morning Market
The mission of the market is to be the ‘heart’ of St. Petersburg - the place, more than anywhere else, that people feel a strong sense of joyful connectedness and creative community. While great food, interesting crafts and lively music are all wonderful elements of the market, this spirit of community is what really defines the market experience. Many customers have shared that they think that the market is the most significant improvement to quality of life ever in St Petersburg.
The market first opened in November 2002, and is now in its 10th season (20011 - 12). The market runs every Saturday from 9 – 2p.m. in downtown St Petersburg The market is located in the Al Lang Field parking lot (the corner of 1st St and 1st Ave S) We’re open from early October – late May each year. We recently opened a summer Market which takes place at the Mahaffey Theater parking garage.
We’ve grown to become the largest one-day-a-week fresh market in the Southeast US, with about 8 - 10,000+ customers each week.”
