Seasonally Fresh Produce. All Year Long.
Every Saturday, you can find seasonal, fresh and locally grown produce in Farmer's Row. Did you know we track food miles? Food miles are a way of measuring how far your food has traveled before it reaches you, the consumer! It's a great way to look at the environmental impact of food and ingredients.

We're doing the "rot" thing!
In partnership with Apple Rabbit Compost, Riverside Arts Market is proud to offer Composting for our Farmers thanks to the support of TerraWise Homes. Founded in 2016, Apple Rabbit Compost is Jacksonville’s leading food scrap composting non-profit organization with years of experience in diverting food waste from landfills and promoting community nourishment.
"Terrawise Homes is proud to sponsor all composting initiatives at the Riverside Arts Market for the next year. As a company rooted in sustainable building practices, we believe in supporting efforts that contribute to a healthier, more environmentally conscious community. The Riverside Arts Market is a hub for local culture, and by helping promote composting, we hope to reduce waste, promote greener lifestyles, and foster a sense of environmental stewardship right here in Jacksonville. Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond our homes - it's about building a better future for everyone." - Jac Shacter, VP of Operations, TerraWise Homes.
