The fifth Lubbock Downtown Farmers Market for the 2018 season will be held this Saturday morning June 30th from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM at 19th & Buddy Holly.

The June 23rd market was a lot of fun. There were around 50 vendors in total. Which include the best of local agricultural producers and vendor offerings of fresh meats, cheese, dairy products, baked goods, and arts & crafts from local artisans.

Our collection of local agriculture producers  from vendors including Onion Shed Farms, E3 Farms. Block 20 Produce, Vonnie’s Veggies, Revolution Farms and more were selling fresh early season produce. Products in season that were offered by these vendors were Squash, Onions, Fresh Eggs, Micro Greens, Spring Mix, Spinach, Kale, Chard, Stir Fry Mix, Beets, Radishes, Snap Peas, Dill, Sunflower Shoots, Pea Shoots, Rainbow Mix, Radish Shoots, Turnips, Watermelons, Cantaloupes, and fresh Tomatoes! We had the return of Revolution Farms at this market selling fresh vine ripened tomatoes  They were very popular and should be available at this upcoming market as well. Expect an even larger variety of local produce and food options as the season progresses and more produce is harvested.

The large number of guests attending this market were well fed. We had prepared food offerings from
Llano Cubano, La Picosita, The Kettle Corn Guy, and More. There were also plenty of cold and hot beverage choices from The Stand, Golden Stripe Coffee, Hub City Craft Sodas, The Coffee Can, and Royal Splash fresh squeezed lemonade!
