JAI ALAIThis exciting game was created more than 400 years

ago in Northern Spain. Today, it is played with a

curved basket (known as a “cesta”) and a ball (called

a “pelota”), with players taking turns using their cesta

to launch the pelota at a wall for the other player to

receive. While the rules are similar to racquetball, the

pelota is a much harder ball and has been known to

reach speeds of over 200 mph, making it easy to see

why this game is known as the “fastest moving ball

sport in the world.”

AGRI-TOURS & FARMERS MARKETS

There’s nothing like sampling fresh fruit straight

from the tree or taking a taste of local, raw honey. In

Orlando North, Seminole County, there are plenty of

opportunities to try the local produce and see first-

hand where it’s grown.

Show your support for local farmers and cottage

businesses at an Orlando North Farmers market.

Most of our cities hold weekly or monthly markets

where you can buy local produce and fruit, fresh

baked goods, flowers, snacks, handmade jewelry,

and crafts.

If you’re interested in the simple life, take a trip out to

a Seminole County farm like South Seminole Farm &

Nursery for a lesson on gardening, Rest Haven Farms

for some vine-ripened tomatoes or Pappy’s Patch

U-Pick Strawberries where you can grab a basket

and pick your very own strawberries and blueberries.

In Orlando North there are ample opportunities to

experience the local produce. We invite you to try

them all.
