Barton Creek Farmers Market is proud to present original music every Saturday played through a solar-powered PA system! This Saturday, April 14, Jimmy Joe Natoli will be hosting the music with his outstanding improvised guitar instrumentals and humorous folk songs. Mr. Bus Driver Man Sir and Her will be there to entertain the kids from 10:10 to 11:11. We are lucky to have Annie Benjamin as our musical guest from the DFW area. She is a dynamic and powerful performer with great blues and pop songs, as well as being an accomplished flautist. The Better Halves will finish out the morning with fun duets.

Dear Farmers Market Friends,
Thanks to Jack and Bryce Gilmore and all of their staff for preparing and serving delicious food provided by our farmers at the market. The proceeds went to Hillside Farm - although it was a rainy, chilly day, the occasion warmed our hearts! Thank you all who donated to help our farmers!
On most Saturdays, we have a very special
Kids Music Hour from 10:10 to 11:11 most Saturdays hosted by Mr. Bus Driver Man Sir and Her and/or special guests. We have sing-alongs, percussion instruments for the kids to play along, sidewalk chalk and little chairs for the kids.
