The Houston Farmers Market

"When: everyday from 6am to 7pm Formerly known as Canino’s, the Houston Farmers Market 18-acre complex is more of a farmers market, meets a flea market, meets a grocery store. And it’s open all week long. Many outdoor booths and multiple vendors sell herbal tea blends, discounted tropical fruit, bulk spices, and giant molcajetes. There’s also a butcher shop with cuts of Texas wagyu, an outpost of the Viet-Cajun Crawfish And Noodles, and usually a musical act playing to families hanging out on the back lawn." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene, julie takahashi

"Open daily from 6 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., this sprawling, decades-old open-air market saw a huge refresh in 2021. Longtime farmers like Digna Bonilla Produce and Allied Produce still sell fresh fruits, vegetables, and spices, and there’s plenty of live entertainment and food trucks for snacking, but the new space has made way for popular Houston restaurants and retailers to move in as well. Underbelly Hospitality’s Underbelly Burger serves juicy burgers, RC Ranch Texas Craft Meats offers a perfect place to get quality cuts, and establishments like taqueria Comalito and a new outpost of Henderson & Kane are coming soon." - Brittany Britto Garley, Lane Gillespie

"Chef Nick Fine of Houston’s Wild Oats announced Tuesday, October 25, that he will step down from his position as the culinary director of restaurant group Underbelly Hospitality on November 14, 2022, according to a release." - Brittany Britto Garley

"The Avilas will open a second location at Houston Farmers Market early next year around February. The 5,000-square-foot outpost will replace original Canino Produce’s prominent space at 2520 Airline Drive in the front of the market, where it will continue selling its many retail products and barbecue." - Brittany Britto Garley
