Austin Farmers' Market Downtown

Republic Square Park, 422 Guadalupe, 236-0074 Saturday, 8am-noon Music: 9:30-11am
A years' worth of hard work and planning culminated with the opening of the downtown Austin Farmers' Market in May of 2003. Operated by the Sustainable Food Center, the new, growers-only market provides fresh, locally produced fruits and vegetables, cheeses, breads, preserves, flowers, and more. Local chefs from the city's favorite dining spots offer weekly cooking demos, and local artisans sell their creations, making Republic Square Park a wonderful place to spend your Saturday morning.
