Shreveport Farmers’ Market will open on this Saturday, October 24 for its fall session, Market Manager Noma Fowler-Sandlin reports. It will run each Saturday henceforth from 8 a.m. until 12 p.m. through November 21.

Under the East Pavilion in Festival Plaza, at 101 Crockett Street in downtown Shreveport, there will be a large selection of locally-grown fruits and vegetables, locally-raised meats, gourmet, baked and canned goods. No medical marijuana, but just about everything else.

At the Market Cafe under the Spring Street Bridge, various types of ready-to-eat foods will be available, along with tables at which to dine while listening to music performed by areated musicians.

If you haven’t been, there’s no time like the present – and what with such fall weather upon us already, we can expect to have palatable temperatures and an enjoyable time if the rains will hold.
