year-round
*There is always live music and activities/information offered by one of our many Community Partners, whether it’s Rosenberg Library, Galveston Island State Park – Texas Parks and Wildlife, Galveston Sports Massage, facepainting or beyond…
*Products typically available include: kombucha, fresh bread, hand-roasted coffee, teas/salves/tinctures, olive oil, baked goods, salsa, jams, fresh eggs & meats and fresh produce. All GOFM markets utilize only LOCAL vendors selling foods they grow or make themselves, which means at certain times of year we have very little produce because our local farmers have very little harvest (ie if it has rained a great deal, or the middle of summer, immediately after several days of freeze, etc.)
Come tour Galveston’s premiere waterfront event venue and meet some of the incredible vendor’s we have partnered with to guarantee every event a huge success. Weddings, corporate events, birthdays, social galas, fundraisers, we will be showcasing all possibilities. Enjoy free food, drinks, and take advantage of great on site booking discounts.
