What is green and big and takes six months to go away? The Parkland Farmers’ Market. And six months later it reappears again. Located at the Parkland Equestrian Center at Temple Park at the intersection of Holmberg Road and Northwest 87th Avenue, it is the largest farmers’ market in Broward County.
With more than 100 vendors at every market, you can find everything you might want. Not just produce, spices, pies, pastries, seafood, and soft pretzels, but flowers, soap, lotion, and plants. You can eat at the market or take home heat-and-eat items or ingredients for a gourmet meal. You can even bring your dog.
The Parkland Farmers’ Market is not just about finding unique, organic, or delicious items, it’s about walking in the park, family time, interacting with your neighbors, and meeting new neighbors. It all happens from 9:00am to 1:00pm two Sundays each month through April.
Join us on March 5th for Kids’ Safety Day—a family fun event that provides kids with safety tips to use at home, in school, and on the playground. On April 23rd, the final date of the 2016-17 Parkland Farmers’ Market season, we celebrate with Public Safety Day. Fire trucks and emergency response equipment will be on hand for display and demonstrations. Like all Parkland events, it will be fun for the whole family—but with more food than you can imagine.
