Why Farmers' Markets Matter in North Texas
For residents of Lantana, Argyle, Flower Mound, Highland Village, Frisco, Celina, Southlake, and Colleyville, farmers' markets are more than a place to grab produce. They are community hubs where families meet their neighbors, support local small businesses, and savor the flavors of the season.
