May 30th Market Review
Lubbock Downtown Farmers Market kicked off it’s 2020 season this past Saturday, May 30 with beautiful weather, produce to buy, and food trucks offering amazing food and beverages. It was a busy morning as the crowd quickly grew after a long wait for the season to begin. There were around 35 vendors at this market with new vendors making their first appearance and old ones coming back. LDFM is excited about the kickoff to the 2020 season and anticipates a great year for the market.
With COVID-19 still being a scare, LDFM has set up sanitizing stations, given guidelines to navigate the market at safe distances, and encourages guest to say home if they feel they may have symptoms. We are excited for the new LDFM season, as are the vendors! We have many vendors returning, as well as many new ones. Some of our vendors have expanded what they are offering as well.
While a lot of the produce is not ready just yet, we still had squashes, melons, root veggies, and more. The further into the season we get, the more vendors will have! Andy at Zuke’s Farm wanted everyone to know that they have “the freshest home-grown veggies at the market,” so I suggest getting over to the market and deciding for yourself! Our meat vendors had great offerings, including sausage on a stick and gulf shrimp! We at the market are excited to have Café Beni back selling even more bread than before, as well as FABcorn! & The Scone Shop adding sour dough bread and scones! More sweets are available as well like macaroons and fried pies!
LDFM loves arts & crafts, and we have some great vendors who do as well. WE had a new stand selling art kits, woodworking, handmade potholders, and more. We also were honored with a visit from Paul Bullock to sell copies of his kids book The Big, Big Man and the Tiny Little Mouse.
The Lubbock Downtown Farmers Market provides a family friendly environment and offers a safe, exciting atmosphere in downtown Lubbock. We are also very dog friendly for our well behaved, leashed four-legged visitors. Many of our vendors provide dog bowls to keep your fur babies well hydrated. We also have small treats for your kids!
