Although, I had proof I paid to the third party, there is possibility Swinging Bananas would not be compensated. However, Maria was reasonable and still gave me my order. I appreciate her going above-and-beyond on my behalf. The vegetables and fruit received were in great condition. The location is a small, narrow bay in a plaza, but there were a lot of fresh fruit and vegetables in stock. I definitely will return to check out the rest of their products and support this business. Free parking spots are available just outside the entrance to the business.

It's a local favorite with tons of repeat clients. Everyone is super helpful and ready to answer questions. We grabbed papaya, guanavana (sour sop), burro bananas and even some cachapas and Honduran cheese. When you get to the register, get some empanadas, chicharrones and get some home made tortillas (you have to ask for those-secret compartment behind the register). The prices and selection are great and we will continue going back for more. Love it!

The Parkland Farmers Market is held the first & third Sunday of the month, November thru April. It…read moreis held in a large field, also known as the Equestrian Park. At other times, there are horse shows and competitions in the same general area. Parking is free for everyone! They provide handicapped parking for those with valid placards. Just show it to the parking guides. We rarely see horses here during the market, but it sometimes seems that EVERYONE brings their dog. Any many of the vendors cater to the dogs as well, selling dog food, treats, doggie duds, toys and more. Parkland's dog parks, (one for little dogs and one for large dogs), called Barkland, are right down the road from the Farmer's Market. It is not a large market, but it has a nice selection of items. Many of the vendors give out tasting samples. There are food trucks as well, and a covered seating area, so feel free to buy food at the market and eat breakfast, brunch or lunch right there. The people who sell honey let you taste any and all. Be sure you taste brfore you buy. The honeys have a very broad range of flavors and colors, with avocado honey being almost avocado green...Really! The french bakery has yummy breads & pastries.The croissants are fresh, yet, when we sat down to eat them at the market, we decided we like them better lightly toasted with butter and/or honey on them. I'm bringing the rest home. Samples are always free at the apple cider donut booth, kettle korn, paela, dips, salsas, banana breads, (one if our favorite vendors). Believe it or not, the item least represented are fruits and vegetables. You'd think that at a Farmer's Market, there would be more. Many of the fruits and veggies even come complete with stickers, printed with codes for the supermarket. Not everything is homegrown.... They, however, usually have homegrown tomatoes, eggplants, zuchini, carrots, string beans, cheeses and more. . Other vendors sell veggie sprouts, many varieties of mushrooms (sometimes), various homemade clothes, granola, hot sauces, dips, The fish guy sells fresh fish salads, whatever he has caught in the last couple of days. The pickle guy is very popular, selling al different kinds of pickles. From time to time time there are special events: An antique car show Musical performers For Christmas there were 3-4 aisles of homemade gift items. and more... We've come to the market just to pick up their terrific banana bread. It comes in several varieties, but, having tried a few, opt for the original now every time. Hint: It freezes well too.

Most of the local farmer's markets are on Saturdays so it is nice to have a Sunday option. The market is next door to the Gary B Jones Park for People and Pups so there are usually lots of cute dogs walking around with their owners. Parking is limited in the area by the market but if you don't mind a short walk I find it is easier to park in the dog park area. This Sunday there were vendors were selling local honey, fresh mozzarella, Kona Ice, burgers, fresh produce, tacos, quesadillas, fresh squeezed juice, ceviche, seafood, Melly Nel's Famous Rum Cakes, nut butters, candles, Wolf Den Soup, and live plants. I recognized a lot of the vendors from the Saturday Plantation Farmers Market in Volunteer Park. Well not overly large this market has a good mix of curated items. If you get something to eat there are a few covered picnic pavilions overlooking the canal to dine at. The restrooms are also right there. I was happy to be able to pick up raw local honey that I use in my tea and when cooking. If you are in the area it is worth stopping by.
