Fall is taking root at the Dallas Farmers Market, and as the seasons change, our Market Garden is shifting right along. With guidance from Master Gardener Gina Woods, we’re preparing the garden for cooler days ahead with fall favorites such as radishes, rainbow carrots, turnips, rainbow chard, and plenty of greens. Many of the new plants have been generously donated by local garden partners, including Yardspell and North Haven Gardens. Make sure to check out the Market Garden this weekend and get inspired.
We’re also digging into something much bigger here at the DFM to support our local insect friends. The four educational beds beside the chicken coop (Come say “hi.” They love it!) are being transformed into Texas Blackland Prairie beds, filled with native grasses and wildflowers that were once abundant across this part of North Texas. With an estimated 99% of the original Blackland Prairie lost, these beds will offer a small glimpse of the landscape that once surrounded Dallas and provide valuable habitat for native bugs and pollinators.
