With A New Name, Downtown Bradenton’s Farmers' Market Returns With 40 Vendors Saturday

BRADENTON, FL — Formerly known as the Bradenton Farmers’ Market, the revamped and rebranded Downtown Bradenton Public Market returns to Old Main Street Saturday.

The open-air market will run every Saturday, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., from October through May along Old Main Street, a tree-lined retail district that runs three blocks from Manatee Avenue to the Manatee River, according to Realize Bradenton, which organizes the event.

The market offers more than 40 vendors selling locally grown produce, prepared foods, fresh seafood, plants and organic products.

The Mainly Art section of the street market features works by local artists and crafts people. The expanded market will also feature live music and interactive experiences.

Those interested in joining this growing community of farmers, artists and small businesses as a vendor can apply online here.
