To Market

The holiday season brought festive shopping opportunities. The DASH fall market kicked off with a preview party at Silver Street Studios, where a well heeled crowd enjoyed live music while perusing offerings from 75-plus vendors. And at Winter Street Studios, the Art on the Avenue event featured works by nearly 300 artists — paintings, jewelry, sculptures and more — all on sale with proceeds benefiting the artists and Avenue CDC.

Fall Philanthropy Report: Urban Harvest Farmers Market Helps ‘Transform Food Accessibility’

What year was your organization launched? Urban Harvest’s Saturday Farmers Market started in 2004 with just seven vendors, providing an outlet for local farms, community and backyard gardeners to sell fresh produce harvested directly from their soils. Now in its 20th year, the market has grown to be one of the largest markets in Texas, supporting over 100 local farmers, ranchers, and food artisans all from within 180 miles of Houston. The market draws 3,000 customers every Saturday morning and includes many original vendors like Animal Farm, Atkinson Farms, and Wood Duck Farm.
