All the products in our market are grown, harvested, or created within 100 miles. Supporting our tremendous community of local farmers and artisans means supporting local families, giving them the valuable capital they need to keep operating and providing consumers an alternative to mass-produced foods.

The farmer’s market is a great place to gather. Visiting is a fun family activity, and you can meet members of your community. Our market includes a Cajun musicians jam every week, ready served food and drinks and children’s face-painting, making it a terrific way to spend a morning.

Offerings at the market are picked at the peak of their ripeness when they not only taste better, but it also provides the best nutrition possible. Vivid colors in fruits and vegetables are a reflection of the nutrients they contain. Many local farmers cultivate extremely nutritious produce through their careful farming methods.

Supermarkets receive their produce from hundreds of miles away, using large amounts of fuel for shipping on refrigerated trucks. Our market’s products don’t travel far and our open-air market requires very little electricity. Along with conserving fuel, family farms produce less environmental waste like carbon monoxide, pesticides, and chemical fertilizers.
