Audubon Park Community Market

By far my favorite farmers market! Everyone is so sweet and everything is such amazing quality! Love going and dressing up and having fun with the vendors and families that attend! The photo of me with the fursuit is not at the market, but I often take this suit to the market and go around and have fun so if you ever see me feel free to say hi! Couldn't recommend this place enough!

Not sure if we went on an off day/time but there weren’t that many vendors so it was pretty empty. I did want to shout out Jerusalem Street Food because those dips were DELICIOUS! I’d make the drive just for that hummus. There were many options to choose from including nondairy. You can try samples so you can take your favorites home!

I had the honor of hosting my first Halal Brisket event here today! I was able to serve brisket not only to my loyal following, but many folks I’ve never met before. I’ve had many tenants/landlords. I will say one thing…the hosts here are some of the most amazing, caring folks I’ve ever met in my journey thus far! Isabelle will go out of her way to make sure all the vendors have everything they need, from weights for tents, lights fir after dark, to just making sure they are ok. She’s proactively offering assistance…so much attention to detail, but not in a hovering, landlord type of way. Best way to describe it is throughout my event, I felt like I had another coworker, or 10, there, lol! I remember their names, after meeting them just once! Hunter helped guide me when loading/unloading. Gabe was in the trenches setting tents, how And where to get some power. I needed a sharpie, I had one within minutes of asking. I had so much fun, I’ll definitely be back at this venue sooner then later! They had live entertainment singers, tables and chairs for guests, I think I saw chalk for children’s activities…left a great, lasting impression! This is the most detailed review I’ve ever left, because the experience made me feel something very positive! Hope to be back here soon!

This is my favorite little local farmers market. It’s small but I appreciate that most ppl at stands really love what they do and provide great local products grown with regenerative farming practices. They seem more than happy to chat with you about how they grow/make their items. It’s always a pleasant time.

Smaller selection, but well worth the stop. Each stand is unique and has local farm fresh produce. If you like dips, check out Jerusalem street food!

Love this farmers market. It's great to go for dinner and do some shopping to support local small business. It's in the parking lot of stardust so you can grab some drinks at stardust as well.

A small, but fun, local farmer's market on Monday nights. They are hostess by Stardust and the other brick and mortar stores on site. They use the parking lot to set up tents and kiosks. All the vendors are local shops, which is hear cause who doesn't want to support small, local vendors??? There are also sometimes food trucks. You can check a specific food trucks website for their schedule if you're aiming to catch a specific one. Parking is rather difficult here, but that's kinda true for every thing in Audubon Park. It wasn't designed with the level of traffic it now has in a daily basis. Overall: A Small and cute farmer's market in the local area, with local/small shops! Go check it out and support locals!!

So much fun on a amo day night. Come out to see the vendors and support local farms and businesses. Good place to get vegan food as well!

One of my favorite little markets in Orlando. It's a mini craft market with a nice handful of booths hosted in the parking lot of Stardust lounge. They Have a wide variety of boots from different crafts to different specialty foods. Like Kraken and their gourmet vegan peanuts, or mama dough, who specializes in different sourdough treats! There's something for everyone here!

5 Stars for a farmers market that focuses on LOCAL and only local. The thing that sets Audubon Park Community Market apart from other markets around town is the level of curation. They describe themselves on their website succinctly: "The Audubon Park Community Market is a weekly gathering of growers, ranchers, fishermen, chefs, artists, handicrafters, musicians and neighbors." Pro tip: Arrive early (the market starts at 5pm on Monday nights) to snag parking nearby. But don't fret if you don't get parking right next to the space, you can usually find a spot in the adjoining neighborhoods, just be respectful of the property owners. Lately, I've enjoyed buying fresh baked loaves from CM Bakari. They also make sourdough pizzas to order. Overall, a market that should be on your rotation for great quality groceries and goods.

Great market Nice vendors friendly atmosphere Pet friendly Children friendly Good prices and produce Pretty flowers Good deserts and ice cream Great pizza and bread Chocolate too

COMMUNITY! COME-UNITY! If you are looking for a deeper way to connect to Orlando, the local farmers and foodies, and support small businesses then you have found the right place! I've been going to Audubon Market for over a decade and it has been an evolving, unique, inspiring and ever-growing exchange between local growers, makers, and bakers and the people who make up our beautiful community. Its offerings change from season to season, but what stays consistent is the hyper local focus. It's part of my weekly self-care ritual, and I've created many long lasting relationships here. On a typical Monday, I can expect to see C.M. Bakari with sourdough bread, Fleet Farming with seasonal veggies, Orlando City Kombucha, Zenn Naturals with Goats Milk & Veggies, HT Farms with honey, Wild Ocean with fresh caught seafood, 2nd Breakfast with seasonal fruit, Good Fills with refillable cleaning products, and Ceylon Hut's delicious Sri Lankan food. There are other farms and vendors that come and go throughout the seasons. Everoak Farm is one of my favorites and they carry seasonal fruits, vegetables, eggs, and chicken. There are delicious food pop ups like Tume's vegan Peruvian food, El Tinto's outstanding Colombian food, Dean's Oyster Bar, Antolena's Chill Blends popsicles, and the BEST cookies in town from MidMod (she also sells plant starts). There's middle eastern food, fresh flowers, micro greens, goat cheese, soaps, gluten free and vegan baked goods, waffles, local grown mushrooms, takoyaki, fresh pressed juices, and even locally harvested sponges! It's incredible! I recommend getting there right at 5pm when they open, because the more popular items will sell out fast. I do my weekly shopping here, and I also plan on getting dinner while I'm there. They have lots of seating with picnic tables and bistro tables outside, and indoor seating if you eat at Stardust, where they also serve beer, wine, coffee & tea. They also have live music which creates such a great atmosphere! It's dog friendly, kid friendly, and grandma friendly. Bring the whole gang! They always put out toys or chalk to entertain the littles, and my son has made many friendships at market. If you can't find street parking, you can park at Audubon Elementary School and walk over. Bring reusable bags for shopping, and don't forget your water bottle! (It's hot out there especially in the summer!) Almost every vendor accepts cash or card. If you have EBT, there is a Snap! Program table where you can get your money matched in Florida produce! So if you have $10 in EBT, you get another $10 in Snap bucks to spend on local Florida produce! It's a really great program. I hope to see you there soon, and I hope you come say hi friend!

It's Monday night. In a parking lot outside of Stardust, a crowd has gathered. Booths line the edges of the lot selling jewelry, farm fresh eggs, plants, breads, and even the fortune written in the wrinkles of your palm hand. A musician strums his guitar on the make-shift stage while the audience looks on, enjoying their freshly made meals and the night air in the Audubon Park community, deep in the heart of Orlando. The Audubon Park neighborhood is home to Stardust Video and Coffee, Blue Bird Bake Shop, and a few other great shops on the corner of Corrine Drive and E Winter Park Rd just north of the Orlando Fashion Square Mall. Every Monday night from 6pm-10pm, Audubon Park Community Market is held in the parking lot of Stardust Coffee, where one can find "Ourlando community's source for the best selection of truly local food, from produce and other farm goods to prepared foods, grocery items and meals." At the Audubon Park Community Market, truly a "night market" in Orlando, you can find food that is locally grown, raised, caught or made right here in Florida emphasizing freshness and sustainable practices. Whether its cage free eggs sold through Chef Tony Adams and Big Wheel Provisions, or artisan bread from Olde Hearth Breads, to ocean caught fish from Wild Ocean Seafood (from the same people who brought us Dixie Crossroads), local is the key ingredient to all of these vendors. On this visit, I saw some old friends, like Mark Baratelli of TheDailyCity.com giving away pants of dispair from the Apathetics in exchange for signing up for his email list serv, and bought charmoula, a African marinade and dip, from Big Wheel Provisions (apparently one of the top 11 things you must eat in Orlando according to Orlando Weekly). I also bought some fresh home made gnocchi and black olive bread from Olde Hearth Bread Company. This weekly gathering of friends, local food, local art, live music and more takes place in the Stardust parking lot at 1842 E Winter Park Rd. Every Monday, from 6pm to 10pm, creating a place where people can come together.

Love coming and hanging out here! The people here are so friendly and kind. You will find many different talents, food, and products. I come here every Monday, and are open from 5pm-9pm. I get my raw milk, exotic fruits, and Japanese tea at this market. Every booth has something intriguing that will teach you something new. They also have a food truck for tamales that you gotta try! By purchasing the product from these booths, you are supporting small businesses! This is the only place my husband lets me splurge lol. We will always try to help small businesses, because we have been there ourselves. And it's not easy! So come out and support these amazing hardworking people! Don't just browse. Meet and learn about the different things each booth has to offer!

This is my go-to place for some serious local and organic food every Monday night. The people who run it check out the vendors to make sure everything is what they say it is. The same people are consistently there, so you can depend on making this a regular food stop. Two of my favorites are Wild Ocean Seafood (shout out to Cinthia) and Bear-Wolf Ranch (hey, Jodi). Wild Ocean has the freshest seafood available in Central Florida with everything sourced out of Port Canaveral and the surrounding area. The seafood is actually cheaper and better than what you can get in the stores. Also, you can get some species not available from anywhere else. Bear-Wolf Ranch deals in free-range and organic feed poultry -- tasty birds. They also sell rabbit which is becoming one of our favorites and is very reasonably priced. There are also a number of organic vegetable, plant, specialty food and craft vendors. The market has a kind of a hippy throwback feel to it with live music and the regular Stardust clientele. There is even a guy who will tell you a poem. Craft beer is flowing and prepared food is always available. It is a nice stress-reliever for the end to your Monday. The only thing that might be confusing is the parking, but they are good about telling you where you can park on their website and you get the drill after a couple of trips. Audubon Community Market may not be the biggest farmers market around, but the quality is there and it is genuine. Check it out!

Monday Night Must Stop: Rain or shine, in the parking lot of Stardust Coffee from 6pm to 10pm. A ton of vendors providing truly local food, from produce and other farm goods to prepared foods, grocery items and meals. The market is a community of growers, ranchers, fishermen, chefs, artists, handicrafters, musicians and neighbors. Very cool live music as well. Just a great chance to mix and mingle with a ton of locals and enjoy your community. Big Wheel is always on deck serving up some yummo dishes so grab dinner and get your shop on. What's really cool? It's completely volunteer-operated!! Just shows the passion of everyone in the community. Parking is a bit sticky so just make sure you park on the street in a legal spot!

I've been coming to the market for the past 4 years. I don't go very often though. Sometimes I'll have a streak of about 3 weeks, but then it could be 6 months before I go again. I really have no excuses though, except for being lazy. I mostly visit the vendors who sell fruits and veges, Wild Ocean for their fish, whoever is selling cheese and the bread lady. Try to get there early, because certain vendors will run out of food or certain items. I've even known of people who will pre-order items. You will also be introduced to new types of foods. Don't be afraid to try. For instance, I once bought an Octopus from Wild ocean. I've never cooked Octopus before, so found a recipe online. It was delicious! Another time was 2 Whole Black Sea Bass, equally delicious. And the Spanish Mackerel doesn't even need any seasoning when broiled. I've bought other fish, that I can't recall at the moment. For veges, I was reintroduced to beets, and I now have a new found love for them. Kale and collards...I don't know if I remember liking them before the market. And I didn't know there were edible flowers! Yes, a salad mix with edible flowers. This is probably one of the most local of the Farmers Markets too (not like the shenanigans at Winter Park's). I would beware of a lady who sells Poblano peppers though. I asked her if they were hot and she said no. When I got home, they burnt my tongue. I usually don't stay late enough to hear the live music, since I have to get home to cook my fish. When I do stay, it's because I ordered food there instead and picked up a beer from inside Stardust. Their ready cooked meal vendors tend to change, but you can usually choose from 2 or 3 for a dinner meal. Sometimes if I do pickup a fish, and eat at a vendor, the Wild Ocean people will keep it cold for me, or give me a bag of ice. Oh, and I really like the smoothie guy. You can choose from a variety of fresh fruits and veges, plus herb and other goodies to put in your smoothie Yum! It's every Monday at 6 PM, in case you didn't catch it in another review.

I LOVE this Farmer's Market. It takes place on Mondays in the parking lot outside Stardust. There's tons of local businesses and individuals selling their wares for awesome prices. It's a great place to get local produce, meats, honey and cheese. There's also some crafts and plants as well. There's usually a food truck or two as well as some live music. With the lights strung outside Stardust, lovely music playing, and people milling about and socializing - I can't imagine a better way to spend a summer evening.

A farmers market in central Florida that actually sells food grown by Farmers!! It's some kind of miracle. They have a pretty small selection of produce vendors, which is the only reason I didn't go 5 stars. Fresh caught local seafood, fresh baked bread, local farmer produce, homemade popsicle treats, and entertainment to boot. Love this place. Ride your bike if you can, if you must drive park across Corrine at the school for just a short little walk without any of the congested parking hassle.

I love going to this market every Monday! This is my outie to star my week. A must visit market!

Bless this little weekly market right in front of Stardust Coffee. Every Monday from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. local vendors come out to sell their goods to the community. It's a great way to support the community by recognizing small business vendors and the best way to introduce yourself to new products. The Audubon Park community market has the vendors laying out in each individual booth with an assortment of products.From gluten free granola bars, to homemade cookies, handmade dog scarfs, and all natural ingredient made salsa. Come out on a Monday night to admire what local vendors have to offer.Also don't forget to bring some cash although most of the vendors have the CC swipe app on their phone.

Charming weekly market located off of E Winter Park Dr, just off the intersection of Corrinne Dr, in the parking lot for Stardust. Big Wheel food truck has the truck and a provisions table with farm items as well as jarred and preserved BW delights. Bakery items from Red Wagon are available for sample and purchase. I'll be back for the amazing Chocolate bread, which will be perfect for a bread pudding. I picked up the Lemon Lavender scones, which had a great texture and taste, but you have to LOVE Lavender. Next time, I'm going orange cranberry for the hubby. Picked up some local honey from St. John's River Honey Company, a family run local company who had great honey selections and lots of wonderful information. They also donate a proceed of their sales to various charities to help out the St. John's area where they live and harvest their product. Heart of Christmas farms had a nice selection of organic veggies and fresh cheese. I enjoyed dinner at OverRice, tasty food and friendly peeps. There were vendors for the new East End Market and Local Food week, and plant, seed, jewelry, soap and other odds and ends. Music started up after an hour our so, which was nice. Nice way to do your Monday night shopping or stop in for a bite on your way to grab a beer at Taps from Scratch or Redlight Redlight. Or both!

This is a cute little market. Not a lot of vendors, but enough to showcase a little bit of everything from crafts to produce to desserts, etc. They do have entertainment for you to enjoy, but unfortunately I couldn't stay long enough to experience it. I'm not sure if its a go out of your way just to check it out, but if its more on your way to other places, its great to stop by and see whats around.

Tonight was my first time checking out this particular market. It was raining, so I don't know what kind of traffic is normally there or how many vendors show up. I had a sandwich from Big Wheel and a couple of cupcakes from Bees Knees, neither disappointed. The turkey meatloaf sandwich was very tasty. To be honest, I wouldnt have known it was turkey meatloaf if I hadnt ordered it off of the menu myself. Big Wheel prides itself on locally sourcing their ingredients. Big plus in my book! Bees Knees cupcakes are small, but they pack a ginormous punch of flavor! These girls know their way around an oven. I would describe the flavors as a bit non-traditional, but that is a great thing! One of the delights was topped with rock salt, what a treat! I look forward to returning to this market again in the near future!

1st time for everything is what I'm all about. Decided on the shrimp summer rolls- they were so fresh that I had to go back for 2nds!! Yayyy lunch tmro. There's quite an eclectic choice of vendors- and they're all so friendly and welcoming. I'll definitely be back :)

This is the real deal. Every Monday evening at Stardust, come out to buy some legit local products which range from local meats and cheeses, seafood, produce, handmade soaps, and crafts made by your neighbors! Want to support your local economy? Start here. Most farmers markets around town sell anything but local products, you may as well be going to Publix for your produce! The vendors at this market are carefully chosen to bring you the best in local wares and crafts. The Audubon Park market is a great means of fostering sustainability and building community. Come on out! There's music, too! Great way to get rid of a case of the "Mondays".

Loved this market. Having it at night makes shopping and eating dinner at the same time super convenient! Easily parked on side street. Loved the bread for sale! We served it for Thanksgiving dinner and it was a big hit! Homemade soap and moisturizer is excellent. I have been using both daily. The seller across from the food truck in the front says she will have Holiday gift baskets, etc. starting tonight! We enjoyed lots of free samples, but ate from the food truck and the Vietnamese restaurant that has a table in the back. Definitely left full! No room for cupcakes, but we will try them next time! Cannot wait to go back!

Great place to pick up local produce. Listen to live music. Eat yummie sweets. Meet new people. Drink kombucha. Buy honey and more.

This market was amazing...to be honest I liked it better for food than the lake Eola farmers market that is normally on Sunday's. It's also very convenient that it is on a Monday night. The mango power bars and pecan ecstasy are amazing if you can find the woman selling them and I suggest cracking into your own coconut to enjoy some hydrating coconut water. Trust me, this place is worth a visit!

There are so many things that make the City Beautiful much cooler than meets the eye. The Audubon Park Community Market is definitely one of those things. Where else on a Monday night can you hang out in a parking lot (of one of the coolest hangouts around), listen to hand-picked local music, browse local hand-made items, and purchase local food? Not to mention the easy access to Stardust's nicely stocked bar and amazing beer selection. Yum. I know that Orlandoans have their pick of the litter when it comes to markets... they are popping up on every corner (and Super Target parking lot!?) from Altamonte Springs to Winter Park. The APCM is different (read: BETTER) because this is the only ALL LOCAL market in the city, directly supporting our local economy, small business, local agriculture, and local artists. When you spend your Monday night at the market, not only are you ON the clean-green-local-organic bandwagon, but you're standing at the helm with both hands on the wheel (wait, do bandwagons have helms? Anyhow...) which is pretty awesome if you ask me. Come for your weekly groceries and stay for dinner, beers, and great music! The bands are hand-picked (by yours truly) and feature a wide range of acoustic Orlando greatness. Another thing that sets the market apart is that the local handmade section features different vendors on a rotating basis so there is something new to see every week. Monday night at the Audubon Park Community Market is more than just a grocery trip. It's an experience... and inexpensive, dependable, really cool, local event that happens every week and is worth the trip. Hey you can even ride your bike there and have the Rusted Chain Bike Collective tune it up for you while you shop. How cool is that? I'll be the one drinking beer by the band. See you Monday!

After a horrible day at Universal Studios due to the crowds, this was a nice change of scenario. I came with my family here for vacation and they all loved it. The food was amazing and fresh, the vendors were amazing, and the music was different from what I'd expect coming from NYC. It was just an amazing place to come with friends or family. There are a lot of young people who attend this so it makes your mediocre Monday night into a festive Monday night. Definitely makes me want to move to Florida for events like this!

Cutest little market in town. Every time I visit I always find something different to love. They have organic meats and vegetables, everything from milk and eggs, cooked to order food from food carts and food trucks, plants and flowers, breads, soaps and eclectic artisans from week to week. The best part is that it's all local, and /or handmade! Definitely recommend anyone checking out this little gem, it's a great spot to relax at stardust, pickup a meal and check out a band. If you love this market as much as I do check out East End Market when it opens up this year around the corner, many of the same artisans will have booths there all year round!

My coworker's wife is one of the vendors so I heard about the market from him almost a year ago but never stopped by until this week when I found myself with a rare Monday with no plans. It's a small market and seems to lean toward food (produce, beverages, baked goods) although maybe that's just what stuck in my head since I was hungry. I enjoyed the empanadas and the peanut butter brownie from Flour Life was amazing. It's worth a visit just for the brownie.

Every Monday night in the parking lot at Stardust Video and Coffee, a wondrous little market happens! Local people peddle local foods, art, clothes and plants. Local live musicians play sets. Notable sellers are Wild Ocean Market which has the freshest in local seafood, Big Wheel Provisions which carries fresh local charcuterie, farm fresh eggs and chef prepared meals and The Bee's Knees Sweet Treats which has lovely bite- size cupcakes and cheesecakes. Stardust also serves their delecacies throughout. The market starts setting up around 6pm and lasts until 9 or 10. The only downside to this splendid market is parking, but it is well worth driving around for a spot.

Great neighborhood market with lots of fun, food, and fellowship. Love the energy!

This is the absolute best market in greater Orlando. Wonderful vendors, fresh food and all within the parking lot of Stardust! Who could ask for anything better?

Very nice local vendors including baked goods, vegetables, farm goods (milk, eggs, etc), fresh honey and juices and more. The little food stand set up by stardust is also tasty and I enjoy the carrot dog with chili :D

I love the Audobon Community Market. There are always nice people to meet, good food to eat or buy and a relaxed atmosphere. For Big Wheel Food truck fans, it is usually here on Mondays (rain or shine), unless the market does not open at all or they have a private event. Their variety is ever changing and always has something good. They are about 80% of the reason I end up there. The Heart of Christmas Farms booth is great for getting local vegetables as well as diary products. The owner/farmer is usually on hand with one of his kids ( I for the life of me can't remember his name). He is a great guy and will always say hello to you. There are numerous vendors to pick up sweets from. There is one man that makes his own popsicles and they are yummy and I believe vegetarian/vegan. Now that summer is upon us you really need one of them to cool down, besides the fact that they are delicious. Besides those vendors there is fish to be bought, free range chicken, a little asian cuiseine, vintage clothes, organic peanut butter, plants, lotions, etc. No matter what there is an eclectic bit of vendors hold up in the parking lot of Stardust Video and Coffee. It is a very good place to stop by and have a look. ******Oh, and many of the vendors do accept credit cards if you were wondering.

This cute little farmers market is really nice! It has an awesome atmosphere, right in front of the hippie stardust cafe. They have same great fish at wild ocean, awesome organic flan from heavenly flan, and adorable cupcakes from the bees knees cupcakes. I also heard big wheel is super tasty as well (both the food truck ad their provisions). Nice to check out, everyone is friendly. Only fault is that it's kinda small so not much to see and parking is a pain! (but because lots of people check out this awesome little market ;)

Absolutely love this market! Toni from Sereniteas is amazing and makes the best loose leaf tea around as far as I'm concerned. I also get my honey and greens from here. Love their hours, love the people. I never get the feeling I'm being attacked or sold something like you get at some markets.
