The Alice Farmers market is returning this Saturday and residents will have the opportunity to buy local produce, crafts, and other useful products.
The farmers market takes place on the second Saturday of every month. This month, it falls on January 11. The market will be open from 9 am to 1 pm at the Sutherland’s parking lot located at 1250 E Houston St, Alice, TX 78332.
In addition to the market’s return this month, the Alice Farmers Market organization is looking for more local vendors who are interested in selling their products at the market.
Business owners and producers who would like to join can contact the Alice Farmers Market on social media for more information.
Alice isn’t the only community to embrace farmers markets again. They are on the rise again across many Texas communities. Once a staple of every small town, farmers markets eventually fell out of favor when large corporations moved into small towns. Now, it would appear Texans are ready to embrace locally owned businesses again and fight back against the corporate giants.
