The operators of the Palm Coast Farmers Market are hoping to start a community market in Ormond Beach.
William Meyer and Kevin Freeland met with the Ormond Beach Site Plan Review Committee on Wednesday, Nov. 8, to discuss opening a community market at local funeral home, Volusia Memorial Park at 550 N. Nova Road. The market is proposed to operate in the rear of the park where the funeral home has about 13 acres of undeveloped land, and would take place on the second Friday of every month, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The community market would host up to 40 tents and no funeral services would be held during the market's hours.
Freeland said to the SPRC that some of the businesses they are proposing to work with include those who sell fresh produce, meat, art, soap, honey, maple syrup and handmade clothes. They would like to support small business owners who can't open a brick and mortar location, he said.
