Meet the Farmers

July 3, 2005


Mark Itz of McCall Creek Farm makes a fair exchange with a customer at Wednesday's opening day market June 23.

The farms are rolling in! This is summertime, and the bounty of locally grown produce is apparent at the Austin Farmers' Market with more than 30 farms and plant people present every Saturday and a dozen who sell at the Wednesday market (11 a - 2 p at 4th and Guadalupe in the park). Give your tastebuds and eyes a spin on the host of vegetables and fruits, herbs and flowers that will be here for several weeks.

Let's welcome new and returning Chickamaw Farm, Psencik Farm, Millberg Farm, Kaune Line Farm, Bee Creek Farm, Bradshaw Farm, Animal Farm, Coaches' Corner, Big Foot Farm, Al & Edna's, Kurten Produce, Combs Gardens, Millican Produce, Gendron Tomato Farm (bad batches of rain lately), Ottmer Farms, Lindig Farm (out until fall--sold all his peaches), McCrary Farm, McCall Creek Farm, Big Red Sun, and Indian Hills Farm.

Later in the summer will be Onion Creek Farm, Wet Weather Farm, Good Earth Farm, Hexenchus Farm, LM Farm, Byrd Farm, Rainbow Creek Farm and a few more!

We already have had a steady stream since March 20th of produce, flowers, plants, meats and cheeses from Taylor Farm, Estrada Farm, Oasis Gardens, Tecolote Farm, Lost Truffle Farm, Groovy Greens, Caskey Farm, Neagelin Farm, The Herb Shack, Bikkurim Farm, The Blooming Idiots, Herb Garland, Duggerhill Plumerias, Spicewood Spines, Groovy Greens, Gundermann Farm, the Garza Greens, Pure Luck Dairy and Farm, Veldhuizen Farm, Alexander Family Farm, Austin Gourmet Poultry and Gamebirds, Thunderheart Bison, and Arrow K Ranch.

Bat Creek Farm will begin in fall (in Sept with apples).

Let's support these local farmers both on Saturdays (9 a to 1 p) and Wednesdays (11 a to 2 p)!
