Southtown Farmers Market

Blue Star Parking Lot

September 28, 2013 2:00 pm - October 19, 2013 6:00 pm

<p>The&nbsp;<a href="http://www.southtownfarmersmarket.com/" target="_blank">Southtown Farmers &amp; Ranchers Market</a>&nbsp;is a weekly edible event where you can shop, eat, listen to local musicians and meet and greet friends. Held every Saturday from 9 am until 1 pm, you’ll find locally grown produce, pastured eggs and chicken, grass-fed beef and small batch food producers.</p>
<p>After two successful years of the Sunday&nbsp;<a href="http://www.quarryfarmersmarket.com/" target="_blank">Quarry Farmers &amp; Ranchers Market</a>, co-founders and directors Heather Hunter and F. David Lent agreed it was time to branch out and start a Saturday market.</p>
<p>They searched for the perfect location and decided that Southtown was where they needed to be. Without a neighborhood grocery store, a farmers market would feed the hungry community and bring the downtown residents and neighbors together each week to celebrate, shop and eat in a local, spirited way.</p>

Blue Star is the Anchor of San Antonio Art. A Southtown destination, purposefully curated with places for you to live, create, and recreate. Come and enjoy the Experience of Blue Star.

September's First Friday has been cancelled. Our complex is following the orders of TX Governor Abbott - to not have gatherings over 100 people. We will continuously update, as changes occur.
