WEST PALM BEACH, FL (March 17, 2025) — The West Palm Beach GreenMarket has again been nominated for the USA TODAY 10Best “Best Farmers Market” award. This prestigious Readers’ Choice poll aims to identify the top ten farmers markets nationwide. The West Palm Beach GreenMarket has maintained its status as a leading farmers market for the past four years, securing the No. 1 position in 2021, 2022, and 2023, and achieving No. 2 in 2024. Remarkably, it is the only market to have held the top spot for three consecutive years.

“We are thrilled to be considered among the best farmers markets again,” said West Palm Beach Mayor Keith A. James. “Our GreenMarket has grown significantly, offering the largest variety of vendors and dynamic experiences. Our four consecutive top rankings place us in our own category, reflecting our commitment to excellence and continued growth. We encourage our supporters to vote daily. Remember, A vote a day brings the win our way!’”
A USA TODAY 10Best panel of travel experts determined their top 20 farmers markets, and now the public will select the top 10 winners. The final rankings will be announced on Wednesday, April 23, 2025. USA TODAY 10Best Readers’ Choice awards highlight the best of the best in contests covering categories such as destinations, food and drink, hotels and things to do.
