15 Years of Local Food. 15 Years of Community Impact.

Partner with the Waco Downtown Farmers Market to Shape the Next 15 Years

Over the years, the Waco Downtown Farmers Market has been the backdrop for countless cherished memories, supporting the birth and growth of local small businesses and fostering a vibrant community spirit.

In 2025, WDFM relocated to the Bridge Street Plaza in East Waco, increasing economic activity and food access. The new location enables us to host a greater number of vendors weekly and collaborate with organizations such as Creative Waco and the Asian Leaders Network for larger community events. Last year, we nearly reached $2 million in annual sales, serving approximately 65,000 visitors—demonstrating the market's significant value to Waco.

We’re excited about the opportunity to work with you to support local businesses while celebrating the community that enriches our city. Your support will help shape the Waco Downtown Farmers Market for the next 15 years.
