Relocated Farmer's Market a Hit With Vendors and Customers

Organizers of the Cross Roads Farmer's Market are pleased with the market's new location at Pop Stansell Park. The market was held for the first time at Pop Stansell Park on Sunday, June 2.

"All of the feedback I got was very positive," said market manager Barb Haley. "I was really impressed."

She estimated 150-200 people attended. 

"Vendors did very well. That's how I judge if their sales are good," Haley added.

Vendors set up their tents in the park, which offers lots of shade from trees, a stage, restrooms, play area for kids and plenty of parking. 

The market was previously held on the grounds of the North Pinellas Historical Museum until April 9, when it closed because of complaints from neighbors and confusion about the property's zoning.

CSA Palm Harbor Parks & Recreation offered to provide a new location for the market at Pop Stansell Park and market managers agreed.
