Farmers Markets

Farmers' market produce is renowned for being locally-grown and very fresh. People argue farmers' markets allow farmers to pick produce at the peak of flavor, preserve the nutritional content of fresh produce, and since locally-grown produce does not travel as far to get to your table, the difference in mileage saves fossil fuels.

Every Saturday

The Harlingen Farmers Market at El Mercado Mall will be held weekly on Saturday afternoons beginning at 3:00 p.m., and will stay open either until the farmers are sold out, or 5:00 p.m., whichever comes first!


Those of you who are "farmers market savvy" already know that getting to the market early is important if you want to have the best selection - please keep this in mind.
