Does living in the 3rd largest city make you feel like you… well – live in a big city? Ready to slow down and smell the orange blossoms - in your own backyard? Join us as we deliver the scoop on Houston’s local foodie “Green Scene”! Plus, you’ll meet some of the top purveyors in the Houston food scene who might just have a tasty morsel or two to share!
Scoop: Love your veggies and locally grown, organic produce? With farm cooperatives, daily farmers markets, and over 20 community gardens throughout the city, we will show you where to fill up your vegetable crisper. Plus, we’ll show you where you can pick your own tomatoes, blueberries, flowers and more.
Scoop: Did you know we have a dairy warehouse filled with artisan cheeses, right in the middle of town? Tastings are open to the public and every Friday and Saturday, pick up the map and learn more!
