Baylor Free Farmers Market
Fresh Food. Real Conversations. Community Care.
What is the Baylor Free Farmers Market?
The Baylor Free Farmers Market is a recurring campus event held once each semester to provide students with free access to fresh fruits and vegetables—while also raising awareness about food insecurity on college campuses. The event brings together local farmers, community partners, campus organizations, and student volunteers to promote health, wellness, and food justice.
What You’ll Find at the Market
- A wide variety of seasonal produce (fruits and vegetables)
- Health and wellness resources from campus and local organizations
- Information tables discussing food insecurity, sustainable agriculture, and support services
- Opportunities to engage with peers and community leaders working to address hunger
- A fun, vibrant atmosphere with music, conversation, and giveaways
All food is provided free of charge to currently enrolled Baylor students—just bring your student ID!
Why It Matters
Food insecurity is a growing issue for college students across the country, and Baylor is no exception. Students who are unsure where their next meal is coming from may experience difficulty focusing, studying, and thriving. The Free Farmers Market not only provides immediate access to nutritious food but also fosters a sense of connection, support, and collective responsibility. It’s part of our larger mission to ensure that no Bear goes hungry.
