What is Bastrop Producers Market, Inc?

 Tues-Fri 11am-7pm/Sat 9am-6pm/Sun 12-5

Located west of Bastrop, TX off Hwy71, it's an indoor farmers market open 6 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. Since we opened, we have attracted a wonderful assortment of vendors. Each week brings another new vendor and more products our customers request. Come and support this new idea in local markets. We make it easier to be a locavore with real food at fair prices! We take VISA/MC/Discover credit cards, cash and checks.

We are in the big red building hidden by native trees and bushes, off the eastbound lane, south side of Hwy 71, between FM20 and H21, west of Bastrop. There is a 2 way access road that runs beside Hwy71 at this point, starting at the Munday Ford dealership just east of 21 and ending just before the FM20 and Hwy71 intersection. We are on that road about .6mi east of the Munday Ford dealership
Exit for The Outdoor Marketplace, and we're about a block east of the Outdoor Marketplace(toward Bastrop). We are a block west of Bastrop Auto Works. Construction is going on at the eastern end (FM20 end) of the two way access road that runs in front of the market, and the road is blocked to through traffic, but still two way.  Look for our sign "Bastrop Producers Market", a 2ft by 15ft banner that says "A New Kind of Farmer's Market" a smaller banner that says "Local is Here" and an orange flag. If the two main gates are open, the market is open. Walk up the 10ft wide ramp and turn right. Welcome!
