Local Farmers and Super Gardeners Sought for Downtown Pensacola Market
The Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) of the City of Pensacola is seeking local farmers who are interested in selling their fresh produce at a new outdoor market in Downtown Pensacola. Depending on farmer participation levels, the market would begin June 7th and would continue each Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. through the height of the growing season. The market is to be located in the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Plaza on Palafox just north of Garden St. The MLK Plaza is a shady park setting featuring high traffic volumes and visibility as well as ample parking. In addition, several Downtown restaurants will be partnering with the Market to purchase large volume produce from participating vendors.
Local farmers and home gardeners are welcomed to participate and only items grown or made by the vendor will be allowed – no re-sales. For more details and vendor application, please contact Terri Kuvach at 850.435.1695.
The Palafox Market is one of several new initiatives of the CRA and the Downtown Improvement Board highlighting shopping and entertainment venues downtown Pensacola has to offer.
