Your List of the Fort Myers Area Farmers Markets

As an agent for Southwest Florida real estate, I like to be your source to everything in the area. But I’m also a resident here, so I have a unique understanding of the area’s amenities and perks. After all, any Realtor can quote numbers for you, but it takes a true expert to give you the inside scoop on a community.

And this week, that means providing you with a resource for Farmers Markets around Fort Myers. In cities throughout the United States, farmers markets are an awesome way to connect with your local area. From fresh grown produce to small businesses, they really are a great way to become part of your community. And when you buy a home in Fort Myers, you’ll be able to shop at any or all of these ones!
