The City of Nacogdoches Main Street Program and the Healthy Nacogdoches Coalition are excited to announce their plans to host the third special edition of the Nacogdoches Farmer’s Market on the grounds of Memorial Hospital next week. The market will be held Wednesday, October 3rd from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., at Blount Park, located at 1200 N. Mound Street.
Vendors set up in Blount Park at the last special edition Farmer's Market.
“Memorial Hospital strives to provide a healthy workplace for our employees; we work to promote healthy behaviors including making healthy food choices. Hosting the farmers market on our campus provides our employees with access to fresh fruits and vegetables and showcases what is available at our local farmers market. We hope that our employees as well as community members will join us again for this special opportunity,” said Douglas.
While the idea behind this market is to expose Memorial Hospital employees to the options of fresh fruits and vegetables, the entire community is invited to come out and Shop Nac First at this special edition of the Farmer’s Market. Be sure to check out our facebook page on Monday for a list of all of the items that will be available on October 3rd.
Our special Fall Wednesday markets will begin October 10th, and will continue every Wednesday from 3 to 6 p.m., at the hitch lot until the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, November 21st. “The Fall Harvest brings in a lot of produce and we are happy to give our vendors and customers another avenue to shop Nac First.”
