Jacksonville context and market information
Jacksonville's food-truck-event scene centers on the Riverside Arts Market (RAM), the city's flagship market -- nearly 150 makers and vendors every Saturday, 10am-3pm, year-round under the Fuller Warren Bridge along the St Johns River, drawing 4,000+ visitors a week with a riverfront amphitheater and SNAP/Produce-match participation. Beyond RAM, a dense set of neighborhood markets fills out the calendar -- Hemming Park Green Market and Hemming Plaza Farmers' Market downtown, King Street Farmers Market, the Mandarin Farmers' Market by Whole Foods, Oakleaf Green Market, Soutel Community Market, and the Farmers Market of San Marco -- plus Orange Park Farmer's & Arts Market and Green Cove Springs Farmers Market in the wider metro. Each market runs on its own independent schedule set by its neighborhood association or host venue.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the biggest food-truck event in Jacksonville?
Riverside Arts Market (RAM) -- nearly 150 makers and vendors every Saturday, 10am-3pm, year-round (Jan 3-Dec 26, 2026), under the Fuller Warren Bridge at 715 Riverside Avenue, drawing 4,000+ visitors weekly.
Are there farmers markets in Jacksonville besides Riverside Arts Market?
Yes -- Hemming Park Green Market and Hemming Plaza Farmers' Market downtown, King Street Farmers Market, Mandarin Farmers' Market by Whole Foods, Oakleaf Green Market, Soutel Community Market, and Farmers Market of San Marco all run independently across the city, plus Orange Park and Green Cove Springs markets in the wider metro.
How do I apply to vend at a Jacksonville farmers market?
Applications go through each individual market's own organizer -- there's no single citywide vendor sign-up. Riverside Arts Market handles its own maker/vendor applications separate from the neighborhood markets.
Do I need a permit to operate a food truck in Jacksonville?
Yes -- a Florida DBPR Mobile Food Dispensing Vehicle (MFDV) license and a Duval County Business Tax Receipt (BTR) are required, along with a licensed commissary kitchen agreement. See our Jacksonville Food Truck Permit Guide for the full process and cost breakdown.
