5 Flags Produce 🐊 Tim’s Gator Goobers
5 Flags Produce, including Tim’s Gator Goobers, is a great lil produce stand right by springs.
They sell tasty boiled peanuts, made in a simple broth of spring water and herbs. Apparently vegan??
The operators of this produce stand thought it would be a good idea for produce stands to work together to make sure they are all stocked. I think that’s a great idea! In fact, they bought and resold produce from us.
State parks like this often have mowed lawns where there could be a community garden with vegetables growing public consumption.
“Welcome to my micro bakery, where I specialize in crafting delicious sourdough bread and made fresh to order! We pride ourselves on using clean, organic ingredients to ensure every bite is not only delightful but also wholesome. Experience the perfect blend of tradition and quality in every loaf and pastry.

Nearby is a food forest that is managed using permaculture methods.
We have sourced loquats and mint from there, with bananas, figs and others to come.
Oliver grows many tropical fruits to share with friends, and plants to sell to those who want to grow their own.
Oliver’s greenhouse boasts a fruiting jackfruit tree, Surinam cherries, Starfruit, and more. He is most known for growing diverse varieties of avocados.

See what David has in stock!
We at Radical Roots have sourced caimito, coconuts, eggfruits, lychees, soursop, and mangoes from him, much of which David acquired in Homestead, FL directly from a farm that also grows mamey, mango, sugar apple, and sapodilla. Look out for these being offered by us soon!

Mass Prison w/ Many Innocents
Many US immigrants from El Salvador have been extradited into this prison without due process. Once entered, there is no accountability about what happens to prisoners.
President Trump is inquiring with President Nayib Bukele if US citizens can be entered into their prisons.
Apparently there is an execution bloc at this facility.

This center performs a high amount of extractions and crown procedures on young children.

There’s a farmer’s market here (San Felasco FM) that needs more fresh produce venders. Fruits, veggies, mushrooms.

Kate Hemingway Acupuncture
I provide acupuncture and Reiki both in person and remotely. I offer various one-on-one and group containers. If you’d like to book a session here with me in Gainesville I do a sliding scale of $85 – $125.
I absolutely love seeing and nurturing the divinity within each person. I believe we come to this earth with spiritual and creative gifts that we are meant to embody and share. I’m passionate about helping people transmute emotional blocks into their most powerful offerings to change the world.
I was trained in Reiki 6 years ago. I learned from three different teachers, each one offered something unique and powerful to me. I graduated from The Academy for Five Element Acupuncture in August 2023 and have been offering acupuncture in Gainesville since April 2024.
