Do It Today: Gulfport Fresh Market, grow fresh herbs and more
If you missed the weekend markets but don’t want to shell out high prices for the chemically-enhanced “fresh fruit” at the big box grocers, head to the Gulfport Tuesday Fresh Market for your locally-grown fruits and veggies, fresh seafood, and even local arts and crafts, along with live entertainment. The market runs year-round from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. every Tuesday on Beach Blvd. in Gulfport’s Florida Waterfront district. Visit
gulfportflorida.us/tuesday-morning-fresh-market for more info.
Put your produce from the Tuesday Market to good use at the Florida Herb Society Meeting. Herbal swaps begin at 6:30, and every meeting features a new event or guest speaker from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Past events include Iron Chef-style herbal cook-offs, lessons in cooking with herbs, and tips and tricks for growing herbs in the Florida climate. For more info, e-mail bodyandmind@ymail.com or call 727-365-8574. Third Tuesday of every month, Clearwater Garden Club, 405 Seminole St., Clearwater, free.
