Goats, live music and more than 45 local vendors will take over Pop Stansell Park on Saturday, July 18, when the Downtown Palm Harbor Community Market returns for its monthly third-Saturday gathering with a "The Goats Are Coming!" theme.
The free event runs 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 797 Florida Ave. in downtown Palm Harbor. Children and adults can pet, feed and photograph live goats, according to the market's Eventbrite listing. Food trucks, craft cocktails and live music round out the morning.
Organizer Ashleigh King runs the market, which has featured rotating themes throughout 2026, including May's "Mama's, Makers & Margaritas" edition.
This time, a portion of proceeds will go to the Pinellas County Veterans Association to help complete the Purple Heart Memorial Park in Palm Harbor. The event listing describes the memorial as "a permanent place of honor for those who have served."
Dogs are welcome. A mobile grooming service, The Doghouse Pet Services, will be on site. Parking is free. Vendors interested in joining future markets can apply at seenmarkets.com/market-schedule.
