From Farm to Table

Exploring Farmers Markets in Williamson County

Each Saturday morning, Georgetown folks and out-of-towners alike flock to the Wolf Ranch Farmers Market in the shopping center’s parking lot between Ross and Just Love Coffee to enjoy fresher fruits and veggies as well as support local farmers. Beyond the wide variety of farm-to-table produce, the market features a cornucopia of artisans and businesses offering everything from perfumes, soaps, candles, and jewelry to freeze-dried candy, organic coffee, wine named after Texas exits, and even a fun face painting booth that always excites young visitors.

Nancy and her husband were one of the many visitors out and about bright and early at the market in mid-August. “We love the variety, and we’re vegans, so it’s nice that they offer some booths with vegan options. We love the organic pressed juices and those kinds of things.” While it was only their fourth time checking out the market, the Georgetown couple look forward to more trips to the popular farmers market. Cedar Park resident Heather McKimmey, on the other hand, has been a faithful visitor since it opened several years ago. “I know all the farmers here. I used to go to the one in Cedar Park, but the Two Happy Children Farm people moved here so I followed them.”

Farm-fresh delights aren’t limited to Georgetown. Whether you are in search of the freshest local produce or unique artisan creations, or simply need a fun family outing idea, Williamson County is brimming with farmers markets that offer a bounty of food and entertainment while cultivating healthy communities.
