Home grown watermelons are the best. Where else can you get fresh home made tamales by the dozen? You can visit old friends and make new ones while getting your dose of vitamin D sunshine for the week.

It's a great way to support our local farmers and small businesses. Our Main Street is new and exciting and after shopping, stop off and visit the Main Street General Store, and other businesses in the area, and have a wonderful lunch at Lou Viney's. It makes for a great Saturday!

When you walk into this Farmer's Market, you feel like you have arrived somewhere very special--perhaps magical. I don't know exactly what it is that makes the atmosphere so special. Perhaps the friendly people make you feel special, or perhaps it's the music. Or maybe it's that hometown flare. Whatever the case, it feels like home. Don't even get me started on the food...

Folks! I can hardly express the excitement and hope for prosperity I have for Main Street Farmers' Market. I just about came out of my shoes when I heard there would be locally grown foods for sale just five minutes from my home!
Herbs, fruits, vegetables, organic-free-range eggs, fresh breads, fresh cheese, fresh salsas, gourmet cookies and patio plants & flowers-
Downtown Sulphur Springs is working hard to revitalize this historic area by bringing in new shops and fine dining. Last year, Main Street was the first to get an extreme makeover with new red brick pavement, lamp posts, flower beds, and a water fountain.
I had a BLAST walking up & down Main Street, visiting with friends and making new ones. With the jazz music drifting through the air, the smell of fresh brewed coffee and an arm full of goodies, I was so happy!
It's too bad we cannot post URLs to our reviews, I wrote an article about the farmers' market on my blog with lots of pictures to boot, then you could SEE what I'm talking about.
You'll have fun too at the Main Street Farmers' Market. And be ready to do a little antique shopping and grab lunch with a glass of wine at LouViney's Bistro on Main Street when you're finished shopping. Delicious!

What's with the "stuffing the ballot box" by "Care2Review?" They're all one-liners and even though the names are different (at least the pages of them I read) they sure SEEM to be posted by the same person. Funny how they all have 5-star reviews. I believe the administrator should restrict or even delete the bulk of these phoneyed-up overly-gushing reviews!
