Spotlight On St Petersburg Saturday Morning Market!

Why do you suppose we never tire of talking about what all there is to do here in Tampa Bay??? It's easy to think of the mild climate, sandy white beaches and breathtaking sunsets... but there is so much more!

Since it is Saturday, this seems a good time to discover the extremely popular Saturday Morning Market that occurs weekly from 9am to 2pm right in the Al Lang Stadium parking lot in downtown St. Petersburg. From October 3rd to May 29th, people gather at this market to enjoy a farmer's market that includes fresh produce, gourmet baked goods, prepared foods, colorful orchids and other fresh flowers and plants... plus a wide variety of artists and handicrafts.

Just take a look at some of the Food Vendors that you can find each week. Simply makes the mouth water thinking about it! Be sure to try one of Millie Taylor's homemade pies. Martin Fisher's smoked fish spread is a must have and he will filet his fish straight from the docks right there on the spot!

Another addition to its upbeat atmosphere is the live music that accompanies the market. This week, the Saturday Market is pleased to have Jazz and Blues musician Theo Valentine.

I'm off to market...
