Drive-Thru Green Market Sunday April 5th at the Fairgrounds

April 3, 2020

“DRIVE-THRU GREEN MARKET” AGAIN!

The first Drive-Thru Green Market was a huge success! So much so that we will be doing it again this Sunday, April 5, 2020, from 9 am to 1 pm

More than 500 cars drove thru and purchased fresh produce, bakery items, eggs, meats, and other locally produced food products. The Fair Manager, Jay Spicer, started this program in cooperation with the vendors of Stuart Green Market and other local farms, in providing a Drive-Thru Green Market. This unique market allows the community to support our local farmers and growers while also providing a safer and healthier opportunity for the public to buy items they need.

The Drive-Thru market takes place at the Martin County Fairgrounds on Sunday, April 5th from 9 AM to 1 PM. There will be more than 20 vendors offering fresh fruits and vegetables, breads, cheeses, honey, coffee and more. 

How It Works...

  1. Cars will enter the fairgrounds at the traffic light at Dixie Highway and Aviation Way.

  2. Each car will receive a “menu” that lists booths by number and outlines their offerings.

  3. Numbered booths/tents will be set up 15 feet apart down the lane for safety.

  4. Cars will proceed one at a time down the line of vendors, stopping at the booth(s) of their choice.

  5. Customer make their purchases and exit gate 6.
