Sun-ripened 🍅

We have fresh, local heirloom tomatoes from 12 Seasons Farms in the shop—each one a little different, all of them bursting with that real, old-Florida flavor you cannot fake. Think imperfectly perfect shapes, deep color, and the kind of taste that only comes from being grown close to home and picked at the right time.

They will not last long—and truthfully, they are not meant to.

Slice them thick, finish with good olive oil, sea salt, maybe a touch of basil… and let the tomato do the talking. Or go Southern and fry them up for a BLT 🥪

Available now at A Bit of Bailey’s. First come, first savored.

🥬 Noticed something? We are looking even fresher in our produce section lately… 🌱

We have been upgrading our produce program by switching to organic options whenever possible — bringing you fruits and vegetables that are grown with fewer synthetic pesticides and more attention to soil health.

Why it matters for you:
🍅 Better flavor — healthier soil often means more vibrant taste
🥕 Cleaner ingredients — fewer synthetic inputs on your food
🥬 Thoughtful sourcing — supporting farms that prioritize sustainable growing practices
🍓 Peak freshness — we are focusing on quality and seasonality

BONUS: the smaller quantities we need for our current business demand surprisingly make this cheaper than conventional produce and reduces waste with smaller shipping cases! It is one more way we are working to bring better food to our island community while keeping the things you love about Bailey’s: great ingredients, great people, and a store that cares about what goes on your table.

Come see what is fresh today. 🌞

Only on Captiva! 🌴👨‍🍳

Chef James is new to our team and already hard at work in the kitchen, bringing flavors and fresh ideas to the menu at The Island Store. Some of you might recognize him from North Captiva back in the day — and we are excited to have his talent with us.

Visit with us, say hello, and come see what is new at The Island Store… because great food and good company are found at The Island Store on Captiva. 🍤🥗

Some familiar faces 🤗 are back behind the counter — and we could not be happier to welcome them home.

If you have been around the island for a while, you know that Bailey’s has always been about the people as much as the place. Seeing former staff return feels a little like the island finding its rhythm again.

Come say hello, grab a bite, and enjoy what might just be the best fishing lunch on the island. And if the fish are not biting… well, rumor has it the lunch might double as bait depending on how good you are at fishing. 🎣

Either way, it is the true taste of Bailey’s — good food, good people, and a little island humor.

Stop by and welcome Todd back. Look forward to our additions of meat, seafood, and kitchen offerings with his help!

Movie nights 🎥 may look a little different these days… but at least the popcorn is still here. 🍿

Stop in, grab a fresh bag, and bring a little movie-night nostalgia home with you — whether it is for the couch, the boat, or a sunset snack. Some traditions are worth keeping, even without the big screen.

Sanibel has always been a community that shows up when it matters. 🌿

The first Sanibel Plan Community Workshop is more than a meeting. It is part of our shared heritage: When the City of Sanibel was founded in 1974, residents came together with a clear purpose: to protect this island and thoughtfully shape its future. That same spirit lives on today.

This workshop is your opportunity to lend your voice, listen, and help guide what comes next for our island home. Our future has always been strongest when it is decided together. Join the conversation and be part of the tradition of conservation and community stewardship and that makes Sanibel, Sanibel.
