The 2010 Farmer's Market season opens on Mother's Day weekend! Join us Saturday May 8th and pick up seedlings for your own garden or some spring veggies grown by your local farmers. Handmade soaps & creams, honey, jams, relishes, jewelry and aprons are among the unique gifts offered at the Concho Farmer's Market. Join us for the start of another great season!
May 29th - Barnyard Critters Day
Last year Barnyard Critters Day was a whole lot of fun. Folks at the market got the chance to see our farm animals up close. There were goats, rabbits, chickens and ducks...as well as puppies and kittens. This year you can expect to have just as much as fun as you shop for farm raised eggs, fresh vegetables and local crafts.
*Please leave your dogs at home on this day in consideration for the other animals who will be at the market. Also note that only vendors and guests who have made prior arrangements are eligible to bring animals to this event.
