Besides being delicious, tomatoes are insanely nutritious! They're a major dietary source of the
antioxidant lycopene, which has been linked to many health benefits, including reduced risk of heart disease and cancer. They're
also a great source of vitamin C, potassium, folate and vitamin K.
The most luscious homegrown tomatoes of summer are in season right now at the Dripping Springs Farmers Market. Get 'em while they last!

Between summer road trips with his Hot Texas Swing Band, Alex Dormont shares his prodigious talents with us at the market - as he has for so many years! This hometown favorite, who's made it big in the world of Western Swing Music, will have everyone in the crowd singing along to
Deep in the Hear of Texas or growing misty-eyed over his rendition of Bob Wills'
Faded Love. Come join the fun from 3 - 6pm.
