Red Stick Farmers Market, Baton Rouge

Red Stick Farmers Market, Baton Rouge

The Red Stick Farmers Market is one of the largest in the state of Louisiana. There are as many as 50 vendors that sell goods at the market during the peak months of June and October. The market creates a direct link between the farmer and the consumer and provides a sustainable source of income for small Louisiana agribusinesses. The Red Stick Farmers Market is producers-only, meaning that anything the farmer brings in, they must be growing in Louisiana.
