Mixon Farms Market Opens March 15 in Manatee County, Reviving a Local Favorite

| Suncoast Post Staff |

Residents and visitors in Manatee County have something exciting to celebrate this spring. The beloved Mixon Farms is returning to its roots with the launch of the new Mixon Farms Market, officially opening on March 15 in Bradenton.

For generations, Mixon Farms has been a cherished part of the local community, known for its sweet citrus, farm tours, and authentic Florida charm. The new market aims to revive that tradition while bringing a fresh experience for today’s visitors.

The Mixon Farms Market will feature a wide variety of fresh, locally sourced fruits and vegetables, specialty food items, and classic Florida favorites. Shoppers can expect seasonal produce, citrus products, homemade treats, and other locally crafted goods that celebrate the agricultural heritage of the region.

Manatee County leaders say the market represents more than just a place to shop—it’s a chance to reconnect with one of the area’s most iconic agricultural destinations. For decades, Mixon Farms was famous for its orange groves and its popular tram tours through the property. Families from across Florida and tourists from around the country made it a must-visit stop when exploring the Gulf Coast.

The reopening of the market signals a renewed commitment to preserving the legacy of the farm while creating a gathering place for the community. Organizers hope the market will become a regular stop for residents looking for fresh food, local products, and a taste of old Florida.

Opening day on March 15 is expected to draw longtime fans of Mixon Farms along with newcomers curious to experience the revitalized market. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore the market, meet local vendors, and enjoy the relaxed farm atmosphere that has defined the property for decades.

Located just minutes from downtown Bradenton, the new Mixon Farms Market is positioned to once again become a favorite destination for both locals and visitors exploring the Suncoast.

As Manatee County continues to grow, the return of Mixon Farms Market serves as a reminder of the region’s deep agricultural roots—and a delicious way to celebrate them.

For many longtime residents, the reopening feels like welcoming an old friend back to the neighborhood. And beginning March 15, the tradition of fresh citrus, local flavor, and Florida hospitality will once again be alive at Mixon Farms.
