Every Saturday for the past six years, rain or shine, the Ybor City Fresh Market has given local folks a chance to shop without having to deal with canned music or crowds of wild-eyed consumers. Ybor is peaceful and welcoming during the day, and Centennial Park is the ideal setting for this open-air market, which features everything from fresh produce, bread, honey, specialty jellies and salsa, to flowers, arts and crafts, jewelry and imported goods. Additionally, Bay Area Greyhound Adoptions is in attendance every first and third Saturday for those interested in becoming a foster or permanent parent to a homeless doggie. For information on becoming a vendor, call 813-241-2442. Saturdays, 9 a.m.-4 p.m., Centennial Park, Eighth Avenue and 19th Street, Ybor City, yborfreshmarket.citysearch.com.
