Market at the Marina: Fresh finds and fun

Terrebonne General Health System and the Houma Downtown Development Association will host Market at the Marina this Saturday, November 2, from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. (rain or shine). Over 20 farmer’s market vendors will offer a variety of delicious and unique foods at this month’s event. 

Attendees can expect seasonal fruits and vegetables, bread, butter, jams, jellies, tea, farm-to-table meat, fresh seafood, baked goods, pet treats, kettle corn, eggrolls, salsa, and more. Additionally, there will be food court vendors with various hot-cooked foods. Insulated bags, perfect for holding temperature-sensitive items, will be sold for $10. Attendees can also enjoy a live performance by Daytton Turner.

Market at the Marina is teaming up with the Marine Corps Reserve for their annual Toys for Tots Drive. Bring a new, unwrapped toy to help make this season bright for children in need. 

This month, Marina Sprouts, sponsored by Terrebonne General Pediatric Care, will have kids’ games and physical activities. St. Matthew’s Episcopal School STEM Lab will have engaging activities for kids to explore and experiment. 

Market at the Marina is held on the first Saturday of every month, from 8 am-noon, at the Downtown Houma Marina, located under the Twin Span bridges and across from Terrebonne General Health System. The event is held rain or shine unless there is extreme weather. There is no cost to enter the Market.

The outdoor farmers market allows our community to experience local vendors who produce fresh and healthy food and non-food health items. Our goal is to make it easy for the community to meet and engage with these vendors and purchase healthy grocery and pantry items for themselves and their families.
