The Coppell Farmers Market, established in 2003, has become one of the best community markets in the DFW area, a one-stop shopping trip for fresh, seasonal produce, pastured meats, eggs, breads and locally made foods. Both the customers and the farmers/producers have shaped the market to what it is today, guided by a community-based organization, the Coppell Farmers Market Committee. The guidelines for the Coppell Farmers Market state that all products sold at the Coppell Farmers Market shall be grown, raised, and/or produced directly by the vendor within the North Central Texas region, with the exception of full disclosure and approval of selling another’s product.

The Coppell Farmers Market is located at 768 W. Main St. in Old Town Coppell. Amenities include a pavilion, playground, an interactive fountain and restrooms. Hours are from 8:00 a.m. to noon every Saturday, April through Thanksgiving. Winter markets take place twice a month in December, January, February and March. See website for dates.
