Braeswood Farmers Market

A great neighborhood farmer's market in a nice shaded location. I'm hoping it will grow. Several fruit and vegetable vendors. One of them has the best mushrooms and lettuce I've found anywhere! Bakery booths, gift booths, a bit of everything. I've been coming here for over a year and always find something new and interesting.

I love coming to Braeswood Farmers Market for produce shopping. My favorite vendor is Verde Greens Farms. Prices are very reasonable. I am here almost every Saturday.

Nice neighborhood market. Variety of items. I have seen growth since the last visit and hope it continues. If you're looking for organic foods, there is only 1 booth. The others are represented with workers who can't offer much information on the products. ON THE OTHER HAND There are some awesome shops! We purchased bottles of organic juice from Zo Zo. I wrote the young lady's name down so I wouldn't forget it and I lost it😔. She was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about her products. I will be sending a separate review for the company. And then there was Richard. He makes all kinds of fascinating things. The handmade wooden garden boxes caught our eye. He shared his knowledge with us and even gave us a recommendation for our fruit tree purchases. Other booths are popcorn, soap, pet items, cook trucks, and spices/teas SO... Get out to the market when you have a chance. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

We love to go to farmers markets for the foods. We tried some Argentinian empanadas. The chicken one was two stars, chewy and a little dry, the beef one was tender and full of flavor....4 stars, if we'd visited earlier in the day they may have been better. We enjoyed an awesome iced coffee drink from DV8 Coffee, picked up a bag of whole beans....Mexico microlot Heredia....took them home, ground some and they were very tasty. My wife and I plan a speedy return, they're here every Saturday. This was our first visit to this new location on Bellaire and the second week it's been here. There was a good vendor turnout. We scored some very good fatty end brisket and some tasty tater salad. Lots of bakers represented....hoping someone will start selling more keto 'cause don't like us. We picked up a couple fully loaded cookies from Blu Doodle home bakery, one peanut butter and one chocolate chip....very very good. Tons of other goodies from a coffee bean roaster...DV8, to pet goodies, even a caricaturist, Leonard's Art. The new location is a church parking lot so they may not fall victim to developers like almost all their previous locations. We went today and they had a great customer turnout and a lot of the same great venders. I love baked goods and they have a plethora of that, not any keto versions.....if enough people ask maybe they'll provide this as an option. We scored some tasty pork tamales which had a great meat to masa ratio....not keto but I get to pick and choose what I fall off the wagon for. We had a good time and we'll back for more goodies. We picked up some brisket and a rack of ribs from The Smoke/Uncle Reggie's...4 stars. Not much bark on the brisket and the pork ribs were tender but slightly undercooked. We also scored some pork tamales from Momma's Tamales, also 4 stars, great taste but the meat to masa ratio was skewed towards masa. Lindy's Lunchbox and DV8 Coffee review...Lindy's had some keto desserts, I selected and enjoyed a piece of keto cheesecake covered with blueberries....very tasty...my copilot agreed. DV8 sold us some great coffee beans, 2 different roasts of Mexican beans...they have a deal where if you buy 2 bags of beans you get a free coffee.

New location allows more room for more vendors and for people to walk about, just wish there were more of a variety of vendors. Location is convenient to 3 Metro Bus lines. Food trucks are part of the dining choices, with an excellent burger joint nearby. 11pm in response to the owner comment, below... "Guess I would hope to see more produce vendors. :-D I did not come to spend, today, but found 4 vendors I would have bought from, food wise, and would have tried one of the Food Trucks, too. :-D
