I have been going to this market almost every Saturday for a few months. The produce, often organic is the best. The art and crafts are delightful. Street playing musicians add a festive fun twist and all the vendors are warm, friendly and full of information on their goods. I have even gone on a rainy Saturday to find the vendors are good nurtured, friendly and happily available in rain gear! GO, you will be glad you did!

Primarily because the produce I buy is so fresh and never a disappointment. Second, I live less than five mins. away so it's convenient. Third, there's an arts/crafts section and, finally, they welcome my Westie, Angus!

Palafox market provides the freshest of homegrown produce. It is important for those of us in the community to support our local farmers. We are lucky to live in an area that has so many friendly farmers.

Everything is beautiful and fresh. It's almost like I've picked it out of my own garden. And they have some of the most wonderful homemade fudge and fresh bread.

The produce is fresh and the vendors/farmers are lively and fun and the downtown setting is beautiful. The perfect way to start a weekend's worth of culinary planning and socializing with friends.

We appreciate the fresh home grown vegetables & fruits ! We enjoy seeing the exhibits and chatting with the vendors, quite like a fair. There's always something new to learn and a craft or two to admire. Even advice about how to do things at home i.e. grafting Japanese Maple trees, writing stories, decorating beautiful pots or making delicious Cinnamon buns. Cooler air will certainly make the event even more pleasant .

It's one of only two farmers markets in town. You can purchase great local produce and herbs. All the growers are willing to offer advice on your own garden. There is fudge,art,pottery and some of the most beautiful jewelry ever scene.

It's a great way to support the local community. I love knowing that I'm buying straight from the grower/baker. The food is fresher and tastes so much better! Our market also has an artisan section, which is a great place to pick up that gift you've been needing to buy.

The vendors and market manager are so friendly. Each week there is something new to see and buy. Locally grown, healthy fruits and vegetables are available as well as many fabulous arts and crafts. Get what's in season while it's good and fresh!

Went to a great market in Sarasota where shopping downtown on Sat. was so much fun. I like to see Pensacola move forward and in the positive direction like many other cities. Experience local arts, crafts, and fresh veggies is worth the trip! I support the efforts, however no one knows you are there.

I love waking up on Saturday, walking to the market and getting fruits and vegetables for the week. My husband snarls his nose at frozen veggies now because they taste so much better from the friendly people at the market.

The Palafox Market is a wonderful addition to such a historical town. The fresh vegetables compliment a weekend BBQ quite well and the delicious pastries make a delicious breakfast before heading to the beach.
