What is Bastrop Producers Market, Inc?
Located
just west of Bastrop, TX off Hwy71, it's an indoor farmers market open
5 days a week during evening commuter hours and weekends, where one
person sells for many individual producers. It allows producers to sell
at fair farmers market retail prices without sacrificing the time to be
at market. And it allows for the individuality of the local producer,
by offering room for the farm/producer to be identified, post
photos, recipes, general information and sales points.
Bastrop
Producers Market, Inc. (BPM) is made up of different kinds of
producers, with an emphasis on local sustainable and organic food
production. Fresh local vegetables and fruits, meats, cheeses, eggs, as
well as canned goods, soaps and salves, herbs and more will be featured as they become available.
Bastrop
Producers Market, Inc. offers consumers a better opportunity to buy
local sustainable and organic products, and to become better educated
about these products. By opening during evening commuter hours, as well
as both Saturday and Sunday afternoon, BPM gives consumers a better
chance to buy the freshest, healthiest foods available, and to support
local farmers.
