Dear Community,
We are more than halfway through the Summer, and parents everywhere are starting to think about sending their kids back to school. For some parents, however, the stress of providing school supplies is significant.
One thing that makes our Market so special is that it is part of our non-profit mission to give back to our community. That's why we're supporting Second Chance Last Opportunity's annual Backpack (and School) Supply Drive.
Give back to the community by bringing these needed items to donate to SCLO at this week's Farmers Market:

Sol Foodz is Caribbean plant based cuisine that will delight your palate. Full of whole foods, plants, and lots of spices and herbs, Sol Foodz is a nutrient dense pop of flavor! You'll feel refreshed and recharged after eating a breakfast burrito stuffed with chickpea chorizo and almond scramble on a homemade spelt flour tortilla. Chris changes his menu weekly based upon what organic vegetables are locally available, and all of his food is dairy and meat-free.
Sol Foodz will be located on State Street.

It's mid-July, and Halloween is just around the corner (for those of us hardcore fans). Start planning your spooky haunted decor with Sarasota Candle. Drew's candles offer the perfect party lighting for any get together, while the fragrances envelope the room in nostalgic smells. Your sniffer will be pleasantly surprised each time you light a Sarasota Candle.
Did you know you can have a candle made from your favorite beer can or bottle? Just drop off the empty container to Drew, and he will turn it into your one of a kind custom candle gift.
Sarasota Candle is located south of Main St on the west side of Lemon Ave (by the Gator Club).
