It's going to be another sweet day at the Avon Park Farmers Market, tomorrow from 9am to 2pm. Hope to see you there!

Alright bakers… it’s time to settle this 👀🥧

Last year’s pie contest was HUGE — packed crowd, tough competition, and hands down everyone’s favorite event of the day. So of course… we had to bring it back.

The Sweet Sweet Pie Contest returns for Sweetheart Saturday at the Avon Park Farmers Market, and this is your chance to step into the spotlight!

Bring your signature pie, your grandma’s famous recipe, or that one flavor everyone begs you to make — and go head-to-head with last year’s Pie Champion 👑

Yes, there are cash prizes.
Yes, bragging rights are included.
Yes, we fully expect some friendly small-town rivalry.

🌻 New Year, New Vendor Fee — Same Amazing Community! 🌻

As we welcome a brand-new year, we’re excited to share updated 💲vendor fees 💲 for the Avon Park Farmers Market, all designed to help us continue growing Avon Park’s most talked-about market while keeping our focus exactly where it belongs: community, quality, and local commerce.

Our market is a place where neighbors meet, stories are shared, and shopping local truly makes a difference. From grass-fed, grass-finished beef 🐂 straight from a local farm to farm-fresh produce 🥕🍎🫑🌽, golden local honey🍯, fresh baked breads🍞, sweet treats🫘🥜🍿, bold spices🧂, and beautiful gifts handcrafted by our talented vendors 🎁🎨, there’s something special here for everyone.

✨ Beyond shopping, we host monthly events that bring the community together, create energy in downtown Avon Park, and support the vitality of the Historic Jacaranda Hotel and surrounding businesses. Every market day is about connection, between farmers and families, makers and neighbors, tradition and growth.
