Tucked along US-301 just north of downtown Dade City, Farm Basket Market feels more like an old-school country store than a modern supermarket. Step inside and you’re greeted by the aroma of fresh-cut meats from the in-house butcher, bins of Florida-grown produce, and the friendly chatter of neighbors catching up over the deli counter. Family-run for more than three decades, the market stocks everything from local honey and farm-fresh eggs to Mexican specialty groceries, making it a one-stop shop for weekly essentials and picnic treats alike. Shoppers love the wide aisles, fair prices, and the “bring town to you” hospitality that owners Julian and his team pride themselves on. Whether you’re road-tripping through Pasco County or live right around the corner, Farm Basket Market offers an easy, down-home shopping experience that keeps folks coming back season after season.
