If you love food (which you do since you’re from Texas), you know the never-ending struggle of deciding what to eat every day. With so many delicious options available in our state, it’s hard to know whether you want a burger, barbecue, chili, or some crazy combination of all three. Lucky for us, we have a unique marketplace at the Dallas Farmers Market that has something for everyone – and you’ll want to visit the next time hunger strikes.

There are two separate areas: The Market and The Shed. The former is open seven days a week, while the latter is only open Friday-Sunday.

Exact hours are as follows: For The Shed - 10am to 3pm Friday, 9am to 5pm Saturday, and 10am to 5pm Sunday. For The Market - 11am to 7pm daily (Friday 11am to 8pm.)
The Shed is an open-air pavilion housed with vendors selling seasonal produce, naturally raised meats, cheeses, eggs, and honey, and artisan breads and canned goods.

It's recommended that you arrive early in the day, as that's when the best selection of produce is found. You don't want to be left with the bumpy, bruised, wrinkly zucchini!
All of the food is grown, raised, or made locally, which means you're getting some of the freshest food around.
Yelp/Virginia C.
The website even has a tab that shows you exactly which vendors will be at the market on any given day, so you can plan ahead as to what day to visit and make an accurate shopping list.
The Market is a 26,000 square-foot building with four permanent restaurants, local specialty foods, and artisan vendors.
Yelp/Willis C.
There are seating areas both inside and out, so grab a bite to eat or sip on a hot cup of fresh joe while you admire the Dallas skyline or observe other market-goers.
Feeling overwhelmed? Don't be - there's a market directory that separates the shops into categories to make it easier on you.
Yelp/Cher'on A.
This way, you'll walk into the market knowing exactly who sells what and where they'll be located. A very helpful tool considering the sheer size of this place - I wouldn't know where to start either!
