Final Summer Market This Morning Ahead of October Kickoff

Palm Beach Gardens, FL · September 27, 2026

Canopies are popping up along Military Trail for the final quiet market morning before the seasonal rush begins. Grab your canvas tote before the afternoon clouds thicken.


The Lead

The Sunday morning routine at City Hall shifts into high gear this weekend as The Gardens GreenMarket closes out its intimate summer run. While a dedicated core of local produce growers and bakeries weathered the summer humidity, city recreation crews and over 120 vendors are now finalizing the campus layout for the full 2026–2027 season kickoff next Sunday, October 4.

Today marks the final day of the relaxed summer schedule, complete with live music from The Boondock Sinners and early-bird giveaways of the city’s new reusable canvas totes. When the market officially expands next weekend, shoppers can expect the return of artisanal cheese makers, native plant nurseries, and extended prepared-food stalls sprawling across the municipal courtyard at Military Trail and Burns Road. Opening ceremonies begin next Sunday at 9:00 AM on the main plaza stage.

Spotlight & Story

  • The Flower-Named Streets
    • When John D. MacArthur platted the city’s earliest neighborhoods in 1959, he banned sidewalks and required every residential street to bear a floral name—from Holly and Gardenia to Lilac and Aster. The quirky decree aimed to turn suburban cattle pasture into a seamless botanical stroll.
