5. Yellow Green Farmers Market
Located in Hollywood, Yellow Green Farmers Market has not only become the top farmer’s market of the region but also a major tourist attraction! This market hosts 300+ vendors in a slightly chaotic set up inside a 100,000-square-foot (9,290 sq. m.) warehouse, bringing back memories of old-style local markets. Inside you will find a bewildering range of foodstuff - fresh produce (fruits and vegetables), fish, meat, fresh dairy products, tea and coffee, and homemade snacks. Apart from this, you will find handmade jewellery, clothing, natural skincare products plus an array of arts and crafts such as pottery, paintings, and ceramic work.
