Water Street Tampa

The neighborhood has already hosted a few similar events, like October’s Weekend in Water Street.

Between the Hyde Park Village Fresh Market and downtown St. Pete’s Saturday Morning Market (and more), TBAY kind of owns the farmer’s market game.

Starting in January, you’ll be able to peruse fresh veggies and local artisan goods right at Water Street Tampa and grab lunch steps away at Sparkman Wharf or the Edition. The fresh market will take over the heart of the neighborhood every third Sunday of the month from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. — starting Sunday, January 15.

Attendees will be able to check out a rotating cast of 50+ food and wellness vendors, including Green Leaf Farms, The Honey Couple, Sweet Harvest Farms, Tampa Bae Macrame + vintage and eco-friendly goods, and live music and entertainment.
