Dallas Farmers Market Friends Hoedown
Each year, the Dallas Farmers Market Friends host an annual “Hoedown” which is their largest fundraiser. In partnership with the Texas Department of Agriculture’s program “Go Texan”, farmers from around the state donate ingredients that are used by local chefs to create unique and delicious samplings for event participants. In addition, local Specialty food producers sample products from cheese to salsa to tapenades and dips. To round out the experience, local wineries contribute wine, and local artisans bring their products. This year’s event will be held in early November. The event will honor the rich heritage of the Market while anticipating a thriving future.
