Fall means a lot of things in Florida: The peak of hurricane season. The return of pumpkin spice. That moment where you feel the first cool breeze in months.

Fall also means that our beloved local green markets are returning: The Wellington Lakeside Market and the Royal Palm Beach Green Market and Bazaar.
