Dear Community,
Welcome to Florida during the month of April, where the weather is no joke! Much needed rains are hitting our area and the crops of food and flowers are soaking it in, literally.
We are pleased to introduce a new Sunrise Yoga offering every week at 7 am: Artful Movement with Bianca is a 45 minute guided practice accompanied by a playlist to match the intention. Start your weekend off right with a stretch before you shop!
This week's Market Map can be found below. Tomorrow's Market includes 78 local Vendors, live music by Emily Ross, and a TON of special guests including Friends of the Selby Library, the Tisch Family Band, and representatives from the internationally acclaimed Sarasota Film Festival.
See you tomorrow, rain or shine, from 7 am until 1 pm!

Husband and wife team, Randy + Melanie Long started this business in 2013. They first owned a pet treat business for many years and after many requests for "people treats" they began experimenting. All Dried Up now offers over 25 different types of fruits and veggie treats.
Don't worry, you can still buy the pet treats on special request, plus they offer organic and salt free options as well!
Made fresh weekly be sure to check out their products on the corner of 1st Street and Lemon Ave.
