It is at Liberty Community Church - here is the web link. Home Page
I have never been to it, but have driven by it many times and there always seems to be a lot of people there. I usually go to Clemons on Toledo Blade in Port Charlotte for fruits and vegetables, but this one is actually closer to my house. Did you go there? How is it? How are the prices? They have tables where people sell their stuff too. So it is almost more like a flea market.

My wife and I have been enjoying the Saturday Punta Gorda farmers' market, going almost every week. This coming Thursday, I may check out Englewood's for the first time. But, if you want to go to a really nice one, make the trip up to Sarasota some Saturday; quite impressive!

If the OP is talking about the one at the sun flea market on Veterans its kind of high. Osprey on 41 in NP is fair and the one on Toledo Blade is OK. Clemons is bigger and has more. Prices vary. Some are very good like their Mushrooms, others not so much. You have to pick and choose.

I go for the Kettle Korn!! They do have good Kettle Korn!! (Same guy from PG's farmer's market). The Italian Bakery, Nino's, from PG is there occasionally and they have reduced prices on their cookies. They weren't there last week though.

They do have a new guy there that sells organic produce and it was a good deal for organic. Some of the produce is a bit steep though.

About two months ago give or take--there was a craft fair/market in North Port behind the McDonalds. Does anyone know if this is a regular thing? They had Kettle Korn for $1!!!!!!!!

We did the NP farmers' market on Toledo Blade a few Saturday's ago and were really disappointed; only four venders. One fruit/veggie stand and booths selling purses, trees, and hmmmm. Make that three vendors! We also drove by there the following week and the tree guy wasn't even there.

I didn't say it was any good, just said its every Saturday. I haven't been impressed by the one fruit/veggie stand either.

Last Saturday it wasn't there. I know there's one that's by the Suncoast Humane Society, but that's not the one I'm thinking of. The one I'm thinking of was in the empty lot right behind the McDonalds. I only saw it there once. I've never been to the one on Toledo Blade.

I still think Punta Gorda's is the best. It's so nice to see the art and hear the music and there's a big variety of tables/booths to look at and sample. The one at PG's flea market is good too. The produce is cheaper there - I think by the American Legion??
