I see mango tress in numerous places. Does anyone know of a place I could go pick some with getting in trouble. Maybe a pick your own farm or something?

Okay, so temple citrus is closed until novemeber 1st. But from the outside it looked promising.
I went to Big Cypress-terrible--one person selling produce that was over-ripened
Place at pine ridge and livingston-very small place about to close down

Are there any great farmers markets here in town that have multiple vendors sellings a large variety of produce and good prices. I will check out some this weekend from naplesnews.com
but any good recomendations would be appreciated.
Thanks

Temple Citrus closes for the summer season? Bummer. I like stopping in there for all the free samples. Prices seem high to me though (I guess to pay for the samples).

I heard the one on 3rd is good. For the best Farmers Markets you gotta go straight to the source. Immokalee.... but thats a bit of a drive. I've had people rave to me about the markets out there

So three places are

Collier Fairgrounds Farmers Market
Immokalee Market

Anyone wanna give some ratings (1-10) to these places
Also, what are prices.
I went to a place this weekend...$1.50 for one mango--get real, won't go back there again.

Can someone explain the whole beach parking permit/sticker thing?
From what I read online, with a sticker you can park at any beach entrance or parking garage for free.
Does this include metered parking by the beach? or only those official parking lots with a few reserved spots for beach permits.

I believe it includes metered spots. I know it applies to the metered spots near our closest beach, Vanderbilt Beach. I use the parking garage.......
