The City of West Palm Beach invites the public to attend the opening day of the West Palm Beach GreenMarket’s 30th season on Saturday, October 5, from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. The famed market, named the “Best Farmers Market” in the U.S. by USA TODAY 10Best Readers’ Choice for three years in a row (in 2021, 2022 and 2023), will open as the largest market in its history with 130+ vendors. Vendors will sell various products, including fresh fruits and vegetables, coffees and teas, flowers and plants, homemade specialty items, desserts and treats, and so much more.

Of note, opening day will include a special ceremony with City of West Palm Beach leadership to celebrate the start of the season (around 9:45 a.m.).

West Palm Beach GreenMarket takes place every Saturday > October 5, 2024 through April 19, 2025 (except on March 22, 2025, due to the Palm Beach International Boat Show)

The West Palm Beach GreenMarket’s mission is to provide the community with seasonal access to locally grown fresh fruits, vegetables, plants, and agricultural products. The market supports the southeast Florida agricultural community and stimulates agricultural development, particularly in Palm Beach County, by providing an outlet for locally grown crops and specialty products.

During the GreenMarket, parking is available in the City public garages: Clematis, Banyan, City Center, Sapodilla, and Evernia. The Banyan and Evernia garages are closest to the event and are subject to the City’s all-day weekend flat rate of $5. The City Center, Clematis, and Sapodilla garages will be free during market hours, with current parking rates in effect afterward. Those interested in arriving by boat can also take advantage of the City’s free public docks. The Clematis Street Dock is the closest dock to the market.
