CENTRAL CITY GREEN MARKET

A Certified Farmers Market in the Heart of Downtown Houston

The Green Market is held at Discovery Green Park each Sunday from noon to 4 pm - except during the month of August. This market, managed by Central City Co-Op with the support of the Discovery Green Conservancy, features local farmers, prepared food vendors and artisans.

All of our vendors and artisans use “green” or sustainable practices. Our vendors are graded on a matrix system annually to assure we are offering Houston’s finest and most sustainable products.

Location
Green Market is held at Discovery Green Park, located at 1500 McKinney Street. The market is located on the Andrea and Bill White promenade. Metered parking around Discovery Green is free on Sundays. Pay attention to posted parking signs as some areas are permit-only. See a map of Discovery Green or get driving directions.
