In the newsletter this week, we'd like to highlight some of our amazing art and furniture vendors, like 2nd Hand Life, Re-Purposed Creations, Art by Heather New, Mud & Glass Studios, The Red Swan, and Resurrection crafts. Check the website to learn more about them!
Right now, with the cooler weather, our produce vendors are bringing us some amazing fruits and veggies, so be sure to check below for the produce picks of week.
Finally, due to a great response from customers, the Market coat drive will end a little early (on January 19th rather than the 31st), so please bring your used coats and cold weather items to the Market Info tent during the next two Saturdays. Jim, the Market Manager, wants to thank everyone who has already so generously donated to the cause.

Your SNAP Dollars, Doubled!
Did you know that if you have a SNAP Access EBT card you can use it at the Market Information/FAB tent every Saturday? Take as much money off your card as you want, receive red tokens in exchange, and spend the tokens like cash with participating vendors. Also, we will double your SNAP dollars with up to $40 worth of FAB tokens. That means that you if you spend up to $40, you will get $80 back! The green FAB tokens can be spent on Florida-grown fruits, veggies, and edible plants. So what's stopping you? Double your SNAP dollars every Saturday!
The Market Footprint
Ever wondered where, exactly, the Market ends and begins?
The Market stretches directly north from the train tracks, up North Kentucky Avenue, across Pine Street and Bay Street, all the way to Oak Street. That's over four blocks of Market fun!
Ever wondered where to park?
There is parking conveniently located at both ends of the market--on Oak Street and across the train tracks by Munn Park. There is also limited on-street parking on Tennesee Ave. and Pine St.
