Your humble minstrels Constant Billy will be singing at a great NEW Farmers Market in Houston's Highland Village Shopping Center this Saturday from 10am-Noon.  The center has built a very cool covered pavilion so you can shop rain or shine.  The emphasis of this new market is 100% organic and sustainable produce.  But of course, coffee, baked goods, handmade soaps and.. well, you name it are also on offer.  Best of all, you'll have 100% organic music to go along with it all!  Come check this place out!

When:  THIS Saturday November 21, 2009 from 10am-Noon.  (Market hours are from 9am to 1pm)
How Much: Absolutely FREE!

------------------------------------------------------------------------
"At the Farmers Market I get everything
See Constant Billy and hear them sing
I get my veggies, my eggs and my bread
Then I drive straight on home
and climb back in my bed"

TRAVELER

Saturday morning, November 21, at the Urban Harvest Bayou City Farmers Market on Eastside just north of Richmond. Come down, have some coffee, and support your local music while getting some local food.

 

Traveler will be playing in the morning, from about 9 to 11. 
Find us under one of the tents.  We should be easy to find: follow the music. 
Check out the Urban Harvest Bayou City Farmers Market web site at http://www.urbanharvest.org/programs/market/index.html

This event is technically "free", although if you can get out of there without buying something, I'll be surprised.
