The Ocala Downtown Market puts the actual "farm" back in farmer's market…read more Unlike those pseudo farmers markets out in California where people discuss their heirloom tomatoes, this place is where folks casually mention their cattle count and debate chicken acquisitions like they're discussing the weather. But don't let the farm talk fool you. There's serious variety here: grass fed beef suppliers, fresh eggs, wellness drink makers pushing sea moss and charcoal, potters working live, pottery, kitchen gear, clothing, and trinkets galore. It's a whole ecosystem of real farm life. I felt like I'd stepped directly into that world without actually being at a farm, which was wonderful until I realized my outfit didn't get the memo in my very short mini dress. Cute as can be, but everyone else was in jeans and tees. I stuck out like a designer purse at a livestock auction. Next time I'm definitely dressing down to blend in. The market is bustling and packed with options. You can skip Publix entirely and do all your grocery shopping here, just cheaper. Everything's cheaper. This is legitimately as close to farm life as you can get without actually stepping in cow manure. ... trust me, one wrong step in a mini dress and you will be fishing a high heel out of a very fresh cow pie.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I have visited the Saturday market about 5-10 times now. I have been here for other events as well…read more I cannot believe I have not reviewed the market yet. This is one of my favorite things to do in Ocala. The market is only open on Saturdays from 9am-2pm, rain or shine. Other events are held here all other dates and times. I cannot stand the heat so I appreciate that the market is under a covered pavilion. There are some vendors that set up outside the pavilion because there is not enough room. The parking is free as well, with plenty of options in the surrounding areas. You don't have to walk far either. The market is extensive enough that you could easily spend 2-3 hours there. There are several food trucks you can purchase food and drinks from. Sipping Grounds is my favorite! They offer snacks, as well as coffee drinks, beer, wine, and mimosas. There are a variety of vendors, with many being staples each time I have visited. I usually stop by and purchase from the same vendors. There are several vendors selling vegetables and fruits, a farmer who sells cheese he makes, a seafood vendor, a vendor who sells dips, spices, and seasonings, another vendor sells oils & vinegars, bakery items are sold by several vendors, and usually there are a couple of vendors specializing in doggie treats. You can also sample a lot of these items, which is awesome. Of course there are vendors who sell jewelry, artwork, decor, pottery, etc.

The folks behind the counter will truly help you with your choices as well as serving ideas. Grouper, Swordfish, Yellowtail, Red Snapper specials are fantastic. Lots of freshwater choices as well. A bit pricey but quality of seafood (and other sides) are consistently above average. The closest place for similar selections is close to the airport in Leesburg, a haul and the quality of their offerings vary. As for the ambiance, ever been to Pike's Place in Seattle?
