We are very excited that stone crab season began last Sunday and our stone crab vendor, Everglades Seafood, will be returning this Sunday with (hopefully) plenty of stone crabs, fresh fish and shrimp.  I also have JJ's Smoked Fish, with fresh fish dip and ceviche.  Ciabella returns with a variety of fresh baked breads.

We also have a few new vendors - Bani, features assorted flavors of banana water (very hydrating)! 
Rebel Bowls offer acai, passion fruit or mango sorbet with a fresh fruit topping of your choice.
Mateo's Pizza prepares thin crust pizza as well as a hungry man size meatball sub.
All Natural Hair & Body creates hand-crafted soaps and lotions.
Aurum has a unique selection of spices and sugars as well as vinegars and oils.
Ebene specializes in lotions and oils for curly hair.

Following up - Palmetto Bay Farmer's Market

Great news -

For all dog lovers - I am following through on our prior discussions - live at the Farmer's Market as well as on various Facebook pages, including - Around Palmetto Bay & Palmetto Bay Leadership thru Transparency - the Village Council will be discussing/implementing a policy regarding dogs at the Farmer's Market at the next Village Council meeting. 

Please provide me updates as to your recommendations/concerns on how we allow dogs - some great ideas are temporary dog clean up bags (yes, as opposed to permanent ones). Please provide me other suggestions as well, including more tables (high tops for standing/picnic for sitting) in the market area. Yes, it was a great first day and I look forward to continued growth of the Farmer's Market, both in number of vendors as well as attendees!  So, as requested, how should the Village manage/allow dogs at Palmetto Bay's Farmer's Market.  This will be discussed at our next village council meeting at my request. After all, Dogs [love them (as I do) or dislike them] are a fact of life at all area Farmer's Markets - Pinecrest, South Miami, et.al.  A Farmer's Market without Dogs is like a picnic without ants!
