South Walton Farmer’s Markets are a Great Place to get Local Delights

 

Two of the best local farmer’s markets in South Walton and along 30A, are the Grand Boulevard and Rosemary Beach markets.

The local market at Grand Boulevard is every Saturday from 9 am to 1 pm.

And the market at Rosemary Beach is every Sunday from 9 am to 1 pm.

One of the best vendors at both markets is Vanilla Beach Baking. Mallory Meinen, the barker extraordinaire behind Vanilla Bean, whips up homemade cookies, schones, and much more every week. Two of her baked goodies that are favorites for locals and visitors are her Oatmeal Molasses cookie sandwiches stuffed with decadent homemade frosting. These tasty treats are not for the faint of heart. They are dense and delicious, and they are sure to fill you up.  Her Great Noni’s Cinnamon Rolls are a family recipe passed down over the generations, and they are covered with iced frosting and take two hands to eat. You’ll likely need a nap after devouring one.

 

Henderson Beach State Park Named one of the Best Beaches in US

 

The state park in Destin and its picturesque beach and dunes were voted as one of the best, according to Tripadvisor.

The 208-protected acres along Henderson Beach State Park are truly amazing given the fact that they are smack in the middle of Destin and across the street from a Walmart!
