Summer has wrapped up and pumpkin spice season is in full swing, which can only mean one thing: seasonal farmer's markets are back. Get ready for fresh produce, jams, and other artisanal goods at oh-so-many locations around town.

While many of our local markets operate year-round, several pick back up in late September and early October. We've compiled a comprehensive list of area markets to get you in the mood for oversized sweaters and comfy boots—even though, let's be honest, we'll all be sporting tank tops and sunhats well into November.

Downtown Bradenton Public Market

400 Old Main St., Bradenton

Operates every Saturday, beginning Oct. 1 from 9 a.m-2 p.m.

A fabulous excuse to wander the streets of downtown Bradenton, the Public Market hosts loads of vendors selling food, artisan goods and plants. We love Bromeliads Galore for a little bit of greenery (and pinks, oranges and yellows) to liven up your space.

Newtown Farmers Market

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Park, 2523 Cocoanut Ave., Sarasota

Operates year-round every Saturday and on the first and third Fridays of the month from 10 a.m-5 p.m.

The name of the game at the Newtown Farmers Market is produce, produce and more produce. Get excited for seasonal tropical fruits like mangoes, citrus and even the occasional lychee.

UTC Night Market

210 N. Cattlemen Road, Sarasota

Operates year-round every third Thursday of the month from 7 p.m-10 p.m. in UTC's West District.

Tick items off of your gift list at the UTC Night Market, which hosts plenty of craft makers. Live music and food vendors round out the offerings at this monthly  event.

The Meadows Farmers Market

5041 Ringwood Meadow, Bldg. G2, Sarasota

Operates every Sunday, beginning in December, from 10 a.m.-2 p.m.

The Meadows Farmers Market is all about wellness. Start your journey with pressed juice from Neighborhood Juice before loading up on seasonal produce. This market doesn't open until December, so expect tons of vegetables at the height of our growing season.

Farmers Market at Lakewood Ranch

Waterside Place, 1561 Lakefront Dr., Sarasota

Operates year-round every Sunday from 10 a.m.-2 p.m.

With more than 100 vendors, it's hard to choose a favorite. But if you twist our arm, we'll tell you the Bread Bandits booth is an amazing way to get freshly made bread without driving all the way into mid-Sarasota.

Sarasota Farmers Market

1 N. Lemon Ave., Sarasota

Operates year-round every Saturday from 7 a.m.-1 p.m. Popular seasonal vendor Worden Farm returns in October.

Sarasota's O.G. farmers market, this weekly event swells with visitors in fall, winter and spring. Get there early to snag the best goods. We love Worden Farm for all things produce, but be sure to stop at Empanada Girl for an obligatory handheld snack to start the morning off right.

Phillippi Creek Farmhouse Market

Phillippi Estate Park, 5500 S. Tamiami Trl., Sarasota

Operates every Wednesday, starting in October, from 8 a.m.-1 p.m. 

There's no need to wait until Saturday to go to the market when the Phillippi Creek Farmhouse Market is open. We love a midweek jaunt to pick up anything we might have missed. While you're there, make sure to grab a doughnut.

Siesta Key Farmer's Market

Siesta Key Village, 5104 Ocean Blvd., Sarasota

Operates year-round every Sunday from 8 a.m.-1 p.m.

What could be better than a day at the beach? A day at the beach kicked off with a stop at the farmers market for plenty of goodies. We love the artisanal crafts, including homemade soap from Apotheca Brown Soaps & Sundries.

Venice Farmer's Market

Venice Island, 401 W. Venice Ave., Venice

Operates year-round every Saturday from 8 a.m.-1 p.m.

Venice Island may be small, but its farmers market is mighty. We love the Alpaca Treasures vendor for buttery soft fabrics that will keep you warm and toasty when you travel anywhere outside of Florida.

Olde Englewood Village Farmers Market

Olde Englewood Village, 300 W. Dearborn St., Englewood

Operates every Thursday, beginning in October, from 9 a.m.-1 p.m.

Aromas of paella waft through the air as you walk through the Olde Englewood Village Farmers Market. We know, paella might not seem like traditional farmers market fare, but trust us: Chef Ef has the best around. Enjoy it onsite or take a box to-go.
