Fresh produce, handmade goods and community spirit will once again fill the grounds of The Farm of Cultural Crossroads as the Farm Fresh Food Market reopens for its fall season on Saturday, Sept. 20. The market will continue each Saturday through the season, from 8 a.m. to noon, at 419 East Union Street in Minden.

This year, Moore Hill Farms will serve as a weekly anchor vendor, offering a wide selection of seasonal fruits and vegetables. Alongside them, shoppers can expect an array of local artisans and small businesses featuring homemade breads, baked goods and specialty products.

Organizers say the market is about more than just food – it’s a place for neighbors to connect while supporting local farmers and entrepreneurs.

“We’re thrilled to welcome the community back for our fall season,” organizers with The Farm of Cultural Crossroads said. “Supporting local vendors not only delivers fresh, quality products to our tables, but it also sustains the heartbeat of our local economy. We can’t wait to see everyone at the market this season.”

The Farm Fresh Food Market has become a Saturday tradition in Webster Parish, giving residents a chance to shop local while celebrating the region’s agricultural heritage. Each purchase helps strengthen the regional economy and promote healthier living, according to organizers.

Families are encouraged to bring friends and enjoy a morning filled with farm-fresh food, handmade goods and local pride.
