Farmer’s Market
Fall market brings fresh foods, cooler weather to Fredericksburg.
The Fredericksburg Farmer’s Market (FFM) returns this fall season on Thursday Sept. 30 bringing locally grown and produced foods to downtown Fredericksburg. Every Thursday until Nov. 4, from 4-7 p.m. (or until dark), shoppers can meet farmers while shopping for fresh produce on the grounds of Pioneer Museum, at 325 West Main Street. The producer/grower market consists of farmers, ranchers and wineries located within the geographic neighborhood of Gillespie and adjacent counties, offering a wide variety of vegetables, berries and other fruits, meats, goat cheese, eggs, baked goods, wine, flowers and more. Meet the farmer, rancher, chef and artisan baker. Support local agriculture and viticulture in Fredericksburg, the community way to shop for great food.
