Brownsville Farmers' Market
Contact Info
Description
In an effort to combat the increasing trend of obesity and diabetes in the lower Rio Grande Valley, the Brownsville Farmers' Market was created to provide local residents with a place to find fresh, affordable, locally grown produce. Currently there are 20 booths selling in-season vegetables and fruits, farm-fresh eggs, honey, home-made breads and jams, fresh-caught Gulf shrimp, and herbs. Community organizations, health-related entities, non-profit agencies and state and federal agencies also participate by distributing information, organizing children's activities or promoting awareness of their agency.
Market Schedule: 9:00 AM to Noon every Saturday from October to May
Location: Linear Park, E. 7th Street and Harrison, Brownsville, Texas
Across from the Gladys Porter Zoo and next to the Brownsville Museum of Fine Art
