Delray Under $50<br />
Most Fun Small Town, Most Crazy Small Town, Most Small Town that Feels<br />
Like a Big Town. Delray has it all. With a bustling downtown, Pineapple<br />
Grove area, and little nooks and crannies in between, there’s more<br />
to do in Delray now than ever, with events and happenings<br />
spanning from daytime to nighttime. While it can<br />
seem expensive at times, there’s a great<br />
opportunity to enjoy all the City has to offer<br />
without breaking the bank. Here’s what you can<br />
do in Delray Beach in <strong>May</strong> for $50 or less.<br />
A<br />
garden is literally the gift that keeps on giving. Whether<br />
you’re growing flowers, plants, fruits, herbs, vegetables, or<br />
woody ornamentals, with a little sweat equity, the garden<br />
will continue to provide. <strong>May</strong> is Gifts from the Garden Month and<br />
is a perfect time to thank all the local gardeners and farmers who<br />
toil the soil for our endless pleasure.<br />
<strong>May</strong> is the last month of the<br />
Delray Beach Winter Green-<br />
Market so make sure to head<br />
downtown to enjoy the last<br />
of the season’s goods. The<br />
Winter GreenMarket features<br />
more than 65 premier food vendors<br />
featuring farm-to-fork produce,<br />
just picked citrus, tropical<br />
fruit and juice, farm fresh eggs, raw<br />
milk and butter, artisan cheese and<br />
jams, fragrant baked goods, plenty of<br />
gluten-free, vegan, and organic products,<br />
fresh cut flowers, plants and other<br />
unique gourmet fare, along with live<br />
musical entertainment, every Saturday<br />
from 9am to 2pm. Not only is the Winter<br />
GreenMarket an amazing one-stop-shop<br />
to get all the delicious food you’ll<br />
need for the week, but it’s a great<br />

opportunity to people watch, get some sun, enjoy some puppy pets,<br />
and spend time with a few hundred of your local neighbors. The<br />

Wait, how it is <strong>May</strong>?<br />
Wasn’t it just the New<br />
Year last week? When<br />
the daily grind gets in the way of<br />
the daily stopping-and-smellingof-the-roses,<br />
it’s time to take a seat,<br />
enjoy a sigh, and revel in the scenery.<br />
<strong>May</strong> is National Mental Health Month<br />
and a healthy reminder to be kind to<br />
your brain and body. Everyone needs a<br />
break once in a while, and it’s okay to want<br />
it, need it and get it! To push you in the right<br />
direction, the good people at Old School Square<br />
are hosting Free Concerts at Old School Square<br />
Pavilion. All guests are invited to bring their own<br />
chairs and blankets, grab a seat on the lawn, and enjoy<br />
live music in the comfort of the great outdoors. Saturday,<br />
<strong>May</strong> 14 features The Groove 2.0 (funk band) and<br />
Saturday, Mya 21 features Fleetwood Max (Fleetwood<br />
Mac tribute band). Drinks are available for purchase,<br />
and you’re invited to order food for pick-up or delivery<br />
from any of the downtown’s eateries.<br />
Doors open at 6:30pm and the concerts<br />
are held from 7:30 to 10pm.<br />
