The Waxahachie Farmers Market held its grand opening on Saturday, May 8, starting the season with 42 vendors in attendance.
The market opened at its new location at 701 Howard Road, close to the Wags-A-Hachie Dog Park.
Anita Simpson, the director of downtown development for Waxahachie, attended the opening on Saturday. The Farmers Market grand opening was awesome, Simpson said. We had 42 vendors who participated, and I don’t have all the sales totals yet, but we are on track to blow all previous opening day records out of the water.
The new location allowed the farmers market to provide some livestock in the pen at the front for children and families to see and purchase cups of feed to feed the animals.
