The weekly market is the star attraction, running every Saturday from October through May. Held from 10 AM to 1 PM inside their spacious 8,500-square-foot open-air barn, the market brings together more than 25 high-quality vendors. You’ll find not only premium produce but also homemade baked goods, garden-fresh plants, natural juices, gourmet cheese, seafood, locally roasted coffee, and much more.
Vendors like Parce Coffee Roasters, Dave’s Smoked Cheese, and Atlantic Seafood & Crab offer top-tier products, all while you enjoy the relaxing countryside ambiance. The market is family-friendly, features free parking, and welcomes guests to explore the farm grounds, which include pigs, sheep, and chickens — a favorite for kids!
Why This Market Stands Out

What sets Swank Specialty Produce apart from other local farms is its emphasis on quality, community, and sustainability. Run by Jodi and Darrin Swank, the farm is known for growing unique, nutrient-rich greens and vegetables using hydroponic and organic farming practices. They supply premium restaurants across South Florida and also give local residents direct access to the same level of quality.
In addition to produce, the farm’s market includes vendors selling pasture-raised meats, artisan breads, vegan specialties, tropical plants, and even specialty products like vegan chocolate, Wagyu beef, and Argentinian-style sweets.
Farm-to-Table Events & Community Engagement

Throughout the year, they host exclusive farm-to-table dinners featuring renowned chefs from around the country. These gourmet events are held on the farm under a grand tent and pair delicious meals with fine wines, cocktails, and live music — a perfect evening out for food lovers.
In fact, even celebrities like Martha Stewart have taken notice, with a featured visit that further solidified Swank’s reputation as a top-tier farm destination.
