Less than an hour south of Greater Miami & Miami Beach’s urban core, there’s another side of the destination: South Dade, Miami’s countryside. Stretching from Pinecrest all the way to the Redlands, Homestead, Florida City and the edge of the Everglades, this rural enclave is the heart of Miami’s agricultural and farming community.
When you visit, you’ll find acres of lychee groves, exotic fruit and vegetable farms, local produce stands and even a winery that produces wine from locally grown passion fruit, carambola, guava, avocado and mango – Schnebly Redland’s Winery & Brewery.
All month long, events and experiences at South Dade farms and related businesses will give visitors ways to celebrate Miami’s farming community.
Explore popular South Dade attractions such as the Fruit & Spice Park and Knaus Berry Farm. Then, for a sweet taste of Miami’s countryside, stop by Robert Is Here, a fruit stand that has been a Homestead staple since 1959, and order a milkshake made with tropical fruits such as mamey or dragon fruit.
You can find an array of beautiful wedding venues in South Dade featuring manicured gardens, rustic barns, charming cottages, waterfront vistas and more.
