Floating into the New Braunfels Farmers Market

The New Braunfels farmers market is Friday afternoon from 3-6 at 205 S. Castelle, which runs parallel to Seguin Ave, in a lot behind the Faust Hotel. When you turn onto Castelle, look for the Faust Brewery sign.

The market is small, there were about 7-8 vendors, but like the Dripping Springs market, the quality was good. I was delighted to see that Caskey Farms and Ottmers Family Farm, regulars at the Downtown Austin Farmers Market, were both there. I bought some delicious pluots from Busch farms, baskets of okra and sweet onions from the Ottmers and two loaves of bread for the crew at the river.

I was instructed to get a loaf of Jalapeno Cheese bread from Great

Harvest Bread Co, but they were out by the time I got there. I substituted with a loaf of Pepperoni Roll bread which was a lot like eating a rolled up piece of pepperoni pizza (without the grease). We cut it up and every snacked on it while we were waiting for dinner.

The other loaf of bread was a Roasted Potato and Garlic from Phoenix Rising. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was delicious and was a great complement to a steak dinner.

If you find yourself in New Braunfels on Friday afternoon, I recommend stopping by to see what treasures you can find. It'll be worth the stop.
