The Siesta Key Farmers Market is a beloved Sunday morning tradition that has been a fixture in the Village for years.
Visiting the Siesta Key Farmers Market
As fun and funky as Siesta Key itself, this small open-air market offers a relaxed local vibe. While the seasonal agricultural selection depends on the time of year, the market is primarily known for its eclectic mix of artisan crafts, hand-poured soaps, local artwork, tropical textiles, jewelry, and specialty foods.
It’s also a great spot to pick up a bottle of Siesta Key Rum—an award-winning, locally distilled favorite that makes a wonderful souvenir to take home! You might even be lucky enough to meet the iconic local celebrity Scooter of the Beach in his distinctive straw top hat!
