Tomball Farmer's Market

Tomball, TX

Very broad selection of grocery items - exactly what you hope every farmer's market is...

I try to go every weekend because the stuff is just so good! I've called out a few of my favorites below...

Rain Song Farms: you have to get there early, but Ed has such a great selection of unique produce. He only grows stuff that should grow in Houston naturally and doesn't use any scary pesticides! He's also such a nice guy and really knowledgable when it comes to both gardening and cooking - plus, he keeps his prices super affordable.

Our Family Farm and Dairy: MUSHROOMS! Sunny has a fantastic selection of mushrooms that you can't get in stores - my favorites are her golds and pinks because they have a sweeter flavor and just look so pretty when plated.

Seared Mushrooms

Umami mushrooms, seared in a dry pan until golden — the mushroom layer on Wajita Wednesday.

Creamy Mushroom Bisque

Built on chicken stock I made from the bones up — topped with sourdough croutons and a drizzle of chili oil.

Orange Salsa

The slight hint of orange makes this salsa incredibly addictive!
