Just moved to Odessa this week and was excited to try this Farmer's Market. My daughter has lived here for 2 years and said there wasn't a lot of stuff when she went last year. WELL I was pleasantly surprised that this wasn't the case this tear! TONS of vendors selling everything you can imagine! They even have a special row for kid vendors selling their arts, crafts and baked goods. Get there EARLY next month if you don't want to park a mile away LOL . So lucky to be able to support local craft's people!!! read more

See all

This is a large farmer's market that meets once a month in the Parks Legado Town Center Plaza from June to September. Over 70 Vendors servicing the Midland-Odessa area with a nice mix of goods for sale. Farms selling traditional produce sold next to home gardeners with more unique items like Armenian Cucumbers, red garlic and shelled walnuts. A lot of mom and pop-type baked goods, pickles and preserves, too. A flower shop where you could make your own bouquets paid by the stem. And plenty of drink options like Serendipitea Boba and Far West Coffee with their Apple-Blueberry Topo Chico-topped Nitro Cold Brew - mouthful right? Phew! On this particular day, they had live music and an area for drop-in (free!) yoga next to the plaza's beautiful fountain. It was very scenic, a nice calm away from the desert and oil ponies this area is more known for. And dogs are allowed, so everyone in the family can join! Unfortunately, the same issues that plague the rest of this area, hit this market too. Things like... Long queues. Worker shortage so you wait 30mins for a drink order. Crowds. And so expensive! $7 Cold Brew and $10 for ONE peony stem are the type of things I expect from a big city. And here, the quality didn't match the pricing. Everything we ate was mediocre. The fancy flowers weren't even home-grown, they came out of plastic and into bins just like HEB's flowers. In fact, I saw more than one vendor repackage bulk goods so it cheapened the experience a bit. Overall, an interesting experience. Clearly there's a market to do these more often so they really should. It might lessen the crowds, allow for lower pricing and over time, maybe allow for better quality goods. And add some tables and chairs so I don't have to take a Louis Vuitton to the face while I'm trying to eat my food. read more
