This weather is perfect for a weekend at the farmer’s market! Buying in-season produce from local farmers around town not only supports your local economy, it’s also environmentally friendly. Eliminating the need to transport foods thousands of miles means savings on your grocery bill. Locally farmed produce is also picked at its peak of freshness rather than prematurely to prevent the food from spoiling during transport.
PickTexas.com has compiled a list of farmer’s markets in Texas, as well as an in-season produce guide for every month of the year. Find one near you and discover all the nutritious options available in your area!
