McKinney, Texas -- The McKinney Farmers Market at Chestnut Square Heritage Village is celebrating another milestone! Thanks to overwhelming support from the community, the market has once again been recognized among the best in the nation—earning the title of #1 Farmers Market in Texas and #3 in the Southwest region.

“We’re honored that the McKinney Farmers Market at Chestnut Square has been named the #1 Farmers Market in Texas and #3 in the Southwest,” says DeAnna Stone, Development Director. “This recognition belongs to our amazing vendors, staff, volunteers, and community who make the market a place to gather, grow, and celebrate together. It is a perfect reflection of the beauty of community. Thank you, McKinney!”

The McKinney Farmers Market, hosted at the historic Chestnut Square Heritage Village, is known for its friendly atmosphere, fresh local produce, meats, baked goods, artisan products, and family-friendly setting. Open
every Saturday, the market continues to be a cornerstone of the McKinney community.

These rankings come from the annual America’s Farmers Market Celebration; a nationwide competition organized by the Farmers Market Coalition to showcase markets that serve as vital community gathering places.

The McKinney Farmers Market extends heartfelt thanks to the vendors, volunteers, and especially the loyal shoppers who voted and continue to make the market a success.

Visit the market every Saturday at Chestnut Square Heritage Village, 315 South Chestnut Street, McKinney, TX 75069.
