Home grown food for sale during Farmer’s Market Beginning Oct. 3 and continuing every Thursday until Nov. 21, the Fredericksburg Farmer’s Market is returning for its fall season outside the Pioneer Museum on the grassy lawn. Farmer’s Market vice president Cynthia England said customers won’t lack for items to sample or buy. “We are very fortunate to have local, grass-fed beef,” England said. Then there are the pasture-raised chickens that produce the organic eggs. There’s also a local

bounty of fall vegetables and fruits including beets, beans, peas, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, potatoes, herbs and more. Besides local produce, there’s also locally-baked bread, locally-roasted coffee, wood oven pizza and other prepared foods. The Farmer’s Market has a new collaboration with Hill Country Memorial Hospital. England describes the nutrition program as innovative. “They’re working with us to encourage the community to eat healthy,” she said.

Other products available at the fall farmers market include local wineries who will sell by the glass or bottle. There’s also the Chef’s Corner, where people can sample food made by professional chefs using

ingredients from local markets. “It’s an educational tool for customers to learn new recipes and new ways to cook,” England said. For more information, visit www.fredericksburgfarmersmarket.com.
