Very good news--the council extended our lease until the end of the year at least. Will be working with Main Street Program to expand the market.
Bastrop 1832 Farmers Market will continue to be on Saturdays 10-2 every weekend in the barn! Thanks for supporting local agriculture!
Due to the excessive heat and the negative effect the weather has had on our farmers’ crops, the Market is discontinuing our Tuesday afternoon market. The last Tuesday market was Tuesday, June 28th.
We apologize for any inconvenience that this causes. We invite you to visit the Market on Saturdays, open from 10am-2pm.

The other newest thing is our new Pinterest Board for the market where we have lots of great recipes for you to try out.
