It starts at 2pm, and you’ll be able to shop for your favorite locally-produced fruits, flowers, vegetables, and preserves as well.
2. Jacksonville Arboretum and Botanical Gardens
Whatever you do this spring, you must make time to visit the
Jacksonville Arboretum and Botanical Gardens to view nature at its very best.
Open from 8am to 7pm every day, you can adventure down the nature trails, or
just to sit and drink in the beautiful scenery. There are even classes and
cyber stations to help you enjoy a spot of yoga in the open air, so come on
