June 20th Market Review
Lubbock Downtown Farmers Market had its fourth market in the 2020 season this past Saturday, June 20th with lots of fresh local produce to buy, and food trucks offering amazing food and beverages. The weather was very comfortable. The day started out drizzly, but the clouds burned off 
and the temperatures rose to the mid 70’s by the market close. There were over 40 vendors at this market with new vendors making their first appearance and old ones coming back.
and the temperatures rose to the mid 70’s by the market close. There were over 40 vendors at this market with new vendors making their first appearance and old ones coming back. Because of the current COVID-19 conditions, 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 2020 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, Spinach, Spring Mix, Arugula, Baby Kale, Dill, Parsley, Rosemary, Mint, Rainbow Mix, Radish Shoots, Micro Cilantro, Sunflower Shoots, Fava Bean Shoots, Pea Shoots, Green Onions, Green Garlic, Fresh Shallots, Garlic Scapes, Radishes, Mushrooms and more. There are even some frozen black eyed peas 
and fresh melons appearing at the market. The further into the season we get, the more vendors will have! More sweets are available as well like macaroons and fried pies and new bakers will be coming in future markets. One of our more popular bakers, Beni Vegan, Organic Bakery had Bread, Sweet Rolls, Stuffed Buns, Cookies, Coffee Cake, Muffins and more!

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. Congratulations to Rambo! (pictured below). He is our Tornado Industrial/Arts ‘Dog of the Day!’ The DOTD is selected at random every Saturday during the Lubbock Downtown Farmers Market!
