Calling All Vendors!
The Austin Town Hall City Market has had a name change for 2024 and is now called the Austin Town Hall Farmers Market! The name may have changed, but the vision stays the same: To create access for residents to patronize farms, and local business owners by purchasing fresh, locally grown produce, prepared foods, baked goods, artisanal items, vegan, and value-added products.
Applications are now open for the 2024 market. If you are a farmer, baker, or candlestick maker looking to sell your products, this is your opportunity to submit your application! The first market of the season is June 6th, so get those applications in today!
