It's the season when green markets blossom: Delray Beach and Boca Raton will kick off their bounties of fresh produce, baked goods, and gourmet items this month.

Boca Raton's 13th annual GreenMarket will open Saturday with an Italian Fest theme to commemorate Columbus Day and will include local restaurant tastings, kiddie crafts and a concert by Five Boroughs. The market will be set up on the southwest corner of Royal Palm Place at South Federal Highway and South Mizner Boulevard from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. The season runs Saturdays through May 8.

For more information on the Boca Raton GreenMarket call 561-368-6875 or 561-239-1536.

The Delray Beach 14th annual GreenMarket begins on Oct. 31 and will celebrate Halloween with trick or treating and apple bobbing. There will be live musical entertainment each Saturday through the end of the season May 15. The market operates from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Delray's GreenMarket has relocated to the first block of Southeast Fourth Avenue, between Atlantic Avenue and Southeast First Street. For more information or to inquire about becoming a vendor, e-mail greenmarket@delraycra.org.

Hello Erika, Thanks for posting this. Can you advise if these are organic markets or just green markets?

Please continbue to add to this post, if you get any info for a green market in Broward somewhere.

this sounds like it will be cool - in hollywood ygfarmersmarket.com

Broward is a joke, not one real Farmers Market in the whole county.

Does anyone know if any of these locations are accessible by Tri-Rail?? any info would be appreciated.. Thanks.

Andrea, thanks for link on the ygfarmersmarket - looks awesome. GenB, the Hollywood one is accessible by Tri-Rail

I think the Delray one can be accessed via TriRail, but you'd need to hop a shuttle bus to do it. There is a complimentary shuttle that picks up at the Delray station and makes stops along Atlantic Ave.

There is a Green Market every Saturday in Pompano. I think the Chamber does it
