Good evening, Friends of Tomball Farmers Market!
This Saturday, Theiss Farms is back with us, and we will have 22 farms in attendance! Tell your friends they won’t want to miss a minute of the fun! It's going to be warm this weekend, please protect your pet's paws.

Bring your baskets, your appetite, and your sense of adventure! Let’s make memories, support local businesses, eat locally sourced healthy options, and celebrate the end of the school year.

We have cool water and a misting machine for them at the information booth, as well as ice water available for a donation for the humans. (wink)

As one of the state's LARGEST ALL-LOCAL Farmers Markets, encompassing an entire city block, we take the security and safety of our vendors and customers seriously. For the safety and security of both our vendors and customers, our market is open every Saturday from 9 am to 1 pm.

This policy helps our staff, police officers, and vendors ensure a safe and organized start for everyone.

We use this time to make sure all vehicles are secure, vendor booths are secure and they are ready to serve you.

We added this policy due to the following:

Customer Safety in the Parking Lot:
- Customers have almost been run over by vendors rushing to set up.
Unsecured Tents:
- Unsecured tents have struck customers, vehicles, pets, and small children.
Trip Hazards:
- Customers have tripped and fallen in vendor booths due to walking through vendor booths before we are officially open.
Safety and convenience:
- Vendors are not allowed to set up sales or exchange goods before 8:30 AM, even if customers are present.
- Early customer arrivals can use the extra time to find parking, get settled, and prepare for a smooth shopping experience.

Although we officially open at 9:00 AM, to protect pets and customers, especially those sensitive to Houston’s heat and crowds, we do allow sales at 8:30 AM.
This earlier opening time helps elderly customers and those with pets manage their visit comfortably and safely.

Thank you for helping us keep our market safe and enjoyable for everyone!

We are excited to be adding the following Farmers Soon.

Ganske Farms (Raw Cow Milk Vendor - Preorder Only)
Pruitt Farms - Vegetables, Watermelon etc...
Triple J Farms - Honey, bee pollen, honeycomb, infused honey
Hive Bee Farms - Honey, honeycomb, bee pollen, honey sticks

BZ Honey
and Thirsty Bee Meadery

BZ Honey's success with bees stems from a commitment to promoting good bee health. We use integrated pest management to help our bees combat pests such as small hive beetles and varroa mites without relying on chemicals. We allow the bees to build their own honeycomb without needing a chemical-laden foundation. We rear our queens from high-performing hives that survive winters and local conditions.
