I get to see farmers markets and local markets all over the world. They are fantastic love notes for their communities. St. Pete's Saturday Morning Market has been a mainstay of downtown for over a decade. I wrote about it in my first book, and I do believe that it played and continues to play a key role in the reinvention of downtown. Added to that mix is the hyper local Indie Market. I visited it on the first Saturday of June at its Summer headquarters, the State Theater on Central Avenue. Summer is when most farmers markets move outdoors but not here in the Sunshine State! We locals know it is way too hot be outside so kudos to the Indie Market for moving indoors to a local, signature venue.
