Clearwater Hispanic Farmers Market
Artisan/Craft Market
We, at Clearwater Hispanic Farmers Market, are building the Hispanic community in Clearwater, creating a family attraction for everyone to enjoy. We are focusing on families with children, specially elementary children and teenagers to create a legacy that will identify the City and all their residents. We welcome the community to honor and celebrate the local multi-cultural heritage of Clearwater, FL. We aim to create an experience of our cultures enriched by our local vendors, artisans, craft-makers, and folklore performing arts. We believe in supporting small businesses to build a stronger community of intercultural heritages and establish the market as a landmark attraction in the heart of downtown Clearwater.
This Farmers Market is a unique farmers market in that we bring so much more to the public than vegetables, craftwork, and prepackaged food. CHFM has been operating since October 2021, the feedback from tourists and visitors we have received is phenomenal and very encouraging in that people finally found a place in Clearwater that brings fun programs for everyone to enjoy. Some of our partners are: Simply Healthcare, Unimex, Florida Farmers Market Association, Hispanic Outreach Center, MercyFull Project, Great Explorations Children's Museum, Tarpon Springs Animal Sanctuary, Prospera, and folklore groups like El Shaddai, Mahetzi, Sones de Mexico.
Crest Lake Park is a beautiful park with wide open spaces for the Clearwater Hispanic Farmers Market. There is going to be performers, children singing, dancing, music, latin food and lots of giveaways. We are an original MarketPlace in that our focus is to build relationships with the community and create an expression of who we are through our culture.
