City of Azle 2025 Summer Quarterly Newsletter
The Feedlot is now celebrating its second year, and it just keeps getting better! What started as a simple gathering spot has transformed into a destination where the community comes together to eat, shop, and connect.
To help everyone enjoy their time a little more comfortably, we recently completed a brand new pavilion. This shaded space offers some much needed relief from the Texas summer heat, making it easier to hang out with friends, catch live music, or just relax with good food.
Another new addition this year: The Feedlot is now officially BYOB (no glass containers please). Guests are welcome to bring their favorite beverages to enjoy while they take in everything the venue has to offer.
And that’s not all. The Lettuce Shack, our hydroponic freight farm, is getting ready to open. Soon, visitors will be able to tour the farm and see firsthand how fresh produce is grown right here on site.
The Azle Farmers Market is also still going strong, bringing fresh local goods to The Feedlot on the first and third Saturday of every month.
Be sure to follow us on Facebook @feedlotazle to stay up to date on upcoming events, including our big plans for Halloween and Christmas!
It’s going to be a year full of growth, community, and fresh flavors at The Feedlot, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
