It's going to be a beautiful Saturday, and what better way to spend it than at our all local farmers market?

We still have limited farm fresh produce so come early! In October Moss Family Farms and Atkinson Farms will be back. We still have 3 meat farmers, 3 honey farmers, goat cheese and vegan cheese, mushrooms and more! 🥩🍯


Did you know we've got 4 certifications from USDA, Texas Department of Agriculture, GO Texan, and Texas Department of Health and Safety? That means we're committed to bringing you the best of Texas, and everything we've got is locally-sourced and of the highest quality! 

And, get this - we even do farm visits every two years to make sure our farmers are growing everything they say they are. So, come on down to TFM this Saturday and enjoy some farm-to-table fun!
🚚🌱🎈

It's going to be a fantastic Saturday to visit our farmers market and explore the charming boutiques, restaurants, and museums nearby. 🌈🍽️🚂 We're just a short walk from the Depot Museum, local eateries, and unique shops. So, be sure to check them out not just on Saturdays, but during the week as well.
 
Don't forget about the special night once a month when many of the shops stay open late. It's the perfect excuse for a fun girls' night or a romantic date night. 🌌🥂👯‍♀️

​The City of Tomball is gearing up to celebrate GroovFest on Saturday, September 28! This beloved event has become a tradition for residents and visitors alike, promising a day filled with groovy entertainment, nostalgic photo opportunities, vintage VWs from the Funkengruven Vintage Volkswagen Club, and fun activities for all ages.

Music lovers can groove to live performances by "That 70's Thing" kicking us off at 12 p.m. with classic 70's hits, followed by "VHT" playing Van Halen favorites at 2 p.m., and headlining the event at 4 p.m. is "Bayou City Funk," who will keep everyone dancing through the evening!
GroovFest will also feature an entertaining kids’ zone, groovy photo ops, a bubble station, stilt-walkers, and more!

Tomball Farmers Market Continues to Grow! September 7, 2024 Market from 9 am to 1 Pm.

We have certainly grown in the last 16 years! We are honored to be able to offer our community access to local farm fresh produce, meats, honey, cheese and value added local vendors.

We are proudly certified by the USDA, Texas Department of Agriculture, GO Texan and Texas Department of Health and Safety as an all local farmers market.

In 2008 we had 5 vendors once a month seasonally. By 2012 we had grown to 25 vendors but couldn’t expand more to bring the community more food options until we met health department requirements.

In 2014 we moved to our current location allowing us to grow to 14 farmers and a total of 45 vendors. Moving locations allowed us to add meat/egg farmers and local vendors with frozen and hot prepared foods.

By 2019 we expanded again and adding a total of 27 local farmers and growing our farmers market to 38,500 square feet of Saturday market space with up to 79 vendors EVERY Saturday year round.

We have helped over 23 local businesses (mostly prepared foods and bakers) outgrow us, helping them establish store front locations or wholesale accounts. We advocate regularly for our farmers and small businesses with Farm and Ranch Freedom Alliance.

Thank you to the City of Tomball, Tomball Economic Development Corporation, Greater Tomball Area Chamber of Commerce, our wonderfully dedicated community, fantastic local businesses, farmers, vendors and staff that have played a major role in the success of our market.

Special thanks to our Tomball Police Department officers who help keep our farmers market safe and the lot secure every weekend and carry those heavy barricades in and out of storage every week.
​
The long hours it takes to put on a farmers market our size is 1000% worth it and is truly a labor of love and privilege to bring the community together and be able to offer fresh local products weekly. Thank you.
