Take a stroll through the Coral Springs Mega Green Market on Saturdays and enjoy the perfectly ripe vegetables and the quaintness of a local farmer’s market. Coral Springs is happy to welcome the first Green Market to town, where residents are able to shop fresh and local produce, as well as gluten free and vegan ready products, baked goods and much more. “Coral Springs is family-oriented, kid-friendly, young and sports-driven. We thought it would be the perfect place to offer the community healthy eating options,” said Jason Hershin, Chief Operating Manager of ShopGreenMarkets. com. The Mega Green Market, featuring more than 50 vendors, will run every Saturday year-round from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. in Downtown Coral Springs, located just east of City Hall South at 9400 W. Sample Road. “Residents have been asking for a Green Market for several years. We have come close in the past, but this time, everything has fallen into place and we hope residents will enjoy it,” Parks and Recreation Director Rick Engle said. Free entertainment will be offered weekly to make shoppers’ experience even more enjoyable. To become a vendor or a sponsor, contact the event organizer.
