Ormond Beach has a new weekly farmer's market.
Fountain Square Village, located at 142 E. Granada Blvd., is hosting the market every Sunday, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Featuring local vendors, attendees can browse goods including baked items, honey, artisan soaps and fresh produce.
The market was organized by Gabi Owens, a massage therapist whose studio, Tranquil Healing, is located in the plaza. When the owner of the plaza approached her about starting a farmer's market, Owens said she'd love to organize it. Two weeks later, the market was made a reality, with its first event held on Sunday, Aug. 10.
"We just wanted to bring more things to the community," Owens said. "The farmer's market that we have is great. It's just on a Thursday morning."
Ormond Beach MainStreet has been hosting a weekly farmer's market at City Hall for years. The market is held 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Thursdays.
When Owens worked in health care, she was never able to attend MainStreet's market because of the date and time. That's why Fountain Square Village opted to host theirs on a weekend.
The vendors, Owens added, are also different, for the most part.
As part of two local women's business groups —Babes, Booze & Business and Biz Bestie — Owens reached out to her contacts to select vendors.
"I joke, 'I might not have a girl for everything, but I have a girl that has a girl for everything," Owen said.
Fountain Square Village also recently started another new event, Wine Down Wednesdays Sip & Shop Market, featuring artisan vendors. That's held weekly from 4-8 p.m. on Wednesdays.
