Farmers Markets to Visit on Tierra Verde

If you’re looking to source fresh produce, local goods, or just soak in community atmosphere, exploring farmers markets on and around Tierra Verde connects you to both food and local life. Because Tierra Verde is small and island-oriented, most formal farmers markets sit in nearby towns, but several close options and produce markets serve the area well.

The list below outlines the markets and produce venues you’ll want to know when planning your local shopping excursions.

Island Produce, located at 1120 Pinellas Bayway S, is a local produce market listed under the farmers market category. Its hours run daily, generally 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays and weekends, with Sunday hours often shorter. You can shop in-store or use delivery within the area.

Because it operates daily, Island Produce offers a steady supply of fruits, vegetables, and some specialty produce closer to Tierra Verde than many neighborhood markets. It fills a gap for those who want local, fresh ingredients without driving far, positioning it among the most accessible farmers markets on Tierra Verde.

This is a large-scale regional market that many locals from Tierra Verde frequent. Held in downtown St. Petersburg, it runs Saturdays from early morning until around 1 p.m. You’ll find dozens of vendors selling produce, baked goods, plants, cheeses, and crafts.

The Saturday Market’s scale means you can find more variety and specialty items than in smaller local markets. For residents willing to drive, it is a reliable weekend destination. It features shaded vendor setups, public seating, and food trucks interspersed among booths. Because of its draw and proximity, it often shows up when people catalog farmers markets on Tierra Verde that are worth the trip.

On Sundays, Deuces Live Market in St. Petersburg offers food vendors, produce stalls, live music, and curated craft booths. The location sees foot traffic as part of a nightlife district transitioning into daytime activity.

This market complements the Saturday option by providing weekend coverage on Sunday, making it a flexible choice for those who can’t visit the Saturday edition. Its combination of community gathering and produce options gives it utility beyond just shopping.

The Tuesday Fresh Market in Gulfport operates midweek, offering fresh produce, prepared foods, and specialty goods. Its schedule (Tuesdays during the day) fills a weekday gap when many local grocers may restock, but vendors aren’t always active.

Gulfport's market adds flexibility for those with flexible schedules or who want lighter weekend loads. You’ll find booths with herbs, vegetables, seafood, baked items, and artisan foods. It broadens your local options and helps distribute shopping away from weekend traffic.

Corey Avenue in St. Pete Beach hosts a Sunday market near the beach corridor (Corey Avenue and Blind Pass Road). This market mixes produce, crafts, and food vendors. Its location makes it a good stop if you plan a beach day. Because it falls on Sunday and is close to coastal attractions, combining a market stop with a beach visit yields dual payoff. Its layout is pedestrian-friendly, so you can walk among booths and then cross to the shore.

Largo operates both a daytime open-air market and an evening market. The open-air market sits at 400 Alternate Keene Road and runs daytime hours, while the evening market adds later hours for people who shop after work. These markets serve northeast of Tierra Verde, making them a mid-distance option. You’ll see fresh produce, prepared goods, and local vendors adapting to more flexible schedules. They act as complementary options in addition to weekend markets.

Safety Harbor’s Market on Main, located at 401 Main Street, runs on weekend mornings and draws farmers, artisans, and prepared-food vendors. It includes vegetables, fruit, baked goods, local honey, and artisan items. Although not within Tierra Verde itself, its location and timing make it a candidate when building a market circuit. Many residents combine a stop there with errands or leisure in the greater Tampa Bay area.

There are hybrid produce stands or satellite vendors sometimes set up along the Pinellas Bayway, at community centers, or inside local restaurants. These pop-up stands don’t operate full-time but may coincide with weekends or holiday events.

Monitoring community bulletin boards or social media often reveals when local vendors join neighborhood markets or open mini-farm stands. These less-publicized options help fill in gaps and give you fresh produce without long trips. When counting farmers markets on Tierra Verde, remember that not all rely on fixed infrastructure.
