The 2018 – 2019 season includes more than 90 vendors selling locally-grown food, fresh flowers, decadent baked goods, vegan offerings, coffees, teas, spices, handmade items, homey finds, and much more. The Saturday staple is the premier place to bring the family – pets included.
This year’s GreenMarket theme is “We PRODUCE Fun for Everyone,” which is apparent in the beyond-the-produce fun that is available for visitors of all ages. In addition to the local vendors, the GreenMarket also features live music, unlimited mimosas for $10, free activities for kids, and plentiful green space and seating, which creates a morning full of fun and relaxation. Additionally, on the 3rd Saturdays, starting in November, visitors can take advantage of “By the Banyan” historical walking tours, which point on key historical locations throughout the downtown community. The tours start by the large banyan tree on North Clematis Street.
Parking is available in two City garages, both just blocks from the waterfront. Parking is free in the Evernia/Olive garage during market hours and a flat fee of $5 in the Banyan/Olive garage before 1 p.m. Those interested in arriving by boat can also take advantage of the City's free public docks.
Special dates during November include:
Saturday, November 10: Veteran’s Day recognition
Saturday, November 17: “By the Banyan” historical walking tour
The 90-minute guided tour starts at 10 a.m. and is led by architect and historian Rick Gonzalez. The tour will highlight the evolution of downtown West Palm Beach buildings and landmarks.
Tours begin “by the Banyan tree” on the east end of Clematis Street, 101 N. Clematis St., and end at the Richard and Pat Johnson Palm Beach County History Museum, at 300 N. Dixie Hwy.
