Farmers markets can be a great resource for local and fresh produce, as well as fresh baked treats, traditional bakery, herbs, spices and anything else the mind can dream of. Taking your weekly shopping list to these vendors can reduce your carbon footprint, expose you to new cuisines and even save on your budget. Check out some of these farmer’s markets around the Davie area to reap the agricultural benefits of tropical South Florida.
Yellow Green Farmers Market
If you’re really looking to experience all of what SoFlo has to offer, Yellow Green is the place to be. While the produce is vibrant and very reasonably priced, the food and drink sold here is enough of a reason to make the drive. Cuban pastries, vietnamese sandwiches and rolled ice creams are just a few of the delicious dishes offered seasonally at the market. Celebrity Chef Gordon Ramsey even paid a visit to the market and showered it with compliments. If it’s good enough for Food Network’s favorite critic, it’s probably worth a trip.

Brother’s Farmers Market
Located in a quaint, inviting strip mall, Brother’s Market is anything but your average grocery store. Rather than having several vendors all selling the same products, Brother’s has simplified it all under one roof, so you know you’re always getting the highest quality and best price at the market. Aside from the usual apples, carrots and bananas, check by often for unique produce like passionfruit and pitaya. They also offer a variety of fresh juices, deli items and bulk-priced foods.
