🥕 Fresh, Fun, and Full of Flavor: Shreveport Farmers’ Market Returns for Its 39th Season—Now with Sponsorship Perks!
It’s that time of year again—when downtown Shreveport wakes up on Saturday mornings to the scent of sizzling breakfast tacos, the sound of local musicians strumming near fresh-cut flower stands, and the sight of smiling faces toting overflowing market bags. That’s right, the Shreveport Farmers’ Market is back, and it’s juicier than ever.
🌟 Kicking off Saturday, May 31st, and running every Saturday through August 23rd, this 13-week celebration of all things local takes place from 8:00 a.m. to noon at Festival Plaza (101 Crockett Street). And did we mention admission is completely free?
🍓 More Than a Market—It’s a Community Tradition
This USDA-Approved market features over 75 vendors bringing the very best of our region:
Farm-fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, meats & cheeses
Local honey, baked goods, jams, jellies, and sauces
Handmade crafts, jewelry, art, candles & soaps
Hot, ready-to-eat breakfast and lunch options (yes, we’re talking about those giant breakfast burritos)
And thanks to partnerships with Greaux the Good and SNAP, shoppers using Louisiana Purchase cards can stretch their food dollars even further—up to $40 in matched funds each market day. It’s a win for families and a boost for local farmers and artisans.
🐾 Important Notes:
The market welcomes ADA-compliant service animals only (no emotional support animals, per federal guidelines).
There’s plenty of free parking, an ATM onsite, and many vendors accept credit/debit cards.
