Support the independent voice of South Florida and help keep the future of New Times free.
Chelsea and Fred Marando opened Marando Farms two years ago with the intention of serving as a Fort Lauderdale hub of locally grown, organic produce. I'm smitten with the charm of the place, from the potted gardens to the chicken coop to the boiled peanuts to the visual feast of in-season fruits and vegetables. Inside the general store, the Marandos sell locally roasted coffee from Oceana, preserves, and spices. Don't miss the beautiful pumpernickels, marbled rye, nutty breads, and olive rosemary loaves by the register.

Keep New Times Broward-Palm Beach Free... Since we started New Times Broward-Palm Beach, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of South Florida, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering South Florida with no paywalls.
