Hidden gem with donation based yoga every Sunday at 10: 30am, a great Sunday market at 12p with the best bread vendor in town, and a zero waste refill station in their community store. They also offer classes like how to build your own pizza oven, and how to grow vegetables. Perfect for all ages!

I was looking for something unique and fun to take my grandkids to. My grandson is very interested in organic gardening he's been doing that for over a year now at home. I had never heard of Sweetwater organic farm until recently. They have a tour of the farms at 1;00 on Sundays so we went to check it out today. The tour was very interesting and informative! My grandsons were fascinated with it! After the tour we walked around the farmers Market. We had a fresh smoothie, bought some produce and some plants. They have a small outdoor stage with seating area where you can watch the performances. It was very enjoyable and relaxing. Various musicians perform from 12 until 3 p.m.
The farm is run by volunteers of all ages from 16 up. My grandson asked if he would be able to volunteer. Volunteers do not need to register ahead of time. They can just show up at 9 a.m. On Sundays. The volunteer hours are until 12 noon. It was a great experience for all of us. We plan on getting involved as volunteers. If you volunteer you will want to be sure to apply sunscreen and bug spray. They also have field trips for homeschool and school groups which can be used as part of classroom activity participation credits. I highly recommend this as it is definitely worth the trip!

Awesome place. I love what they're doing and the food they are growing. Educational programs could be thought of a little better with grade level and attention span consideration. Thank you for doing your best to sharing the knowledge!

Certainly not the same community vibe I remember long ago. Took donations for an event, not a welcoming face, greeting or gesture to be found. Hope someone enjoys the bikes.

Best community organic farm in the Tampa Bay area. Chris and Joni really have the heart and the mind in the right place

I only saw a singular pot of sunflowers and there was a concert going on. Someone grabbed the mic and said a funny monkey joke that went, “Why does the monkey not like to play cards in the jungle? Because there are too many cheetahs! ” There’s not even cheetahs in the jungle!

The eye mask you sent was a God send! I woke up this morning with a migraine. I took my meds and warmed it up. I was able to relax and fall asleep and let my meds work. The lavender was amazing! I am a true believer, and this will be my go to from now on. If you suffer from migraines, I recommend this product!

Terrific place, plenty of produce and goods available plus wonderful energy of supporting this initiative.
There's also a Refill store opened down the road, all worth the visit.
