The Four Marketeers is a group of four avid home cooks who created a database of information about Austin's farmers markets after noticing a lack of centralized information. They visited all eight of Austin's weekly markets over three weeks to gather vendor and atmosphere details, which became the basis for their database. Their goal is to help people find the right market by providing an expandable resource with produce information and nearby market options.
2. Inspiration...
We are avid home cooks who appreciate
finding the finest local ingredients. In our
culinary pursuits we saw a lack of centralized
information about Austin’s Farmers Markets.
We decided to make this cause our mission.
The Four Marketeers were born.
3. Data Collection
We went to all 8 of Austin’s weekly Farmers
Markets over the course of three weeks, and
gathered information about vendors,surveyed
the scene, talked to shoppers, and soaked in
the vibe. This information became the basis
of our database.
10. Take Aways
Expandable
● produce, updated seasonally, room for new markets,
expanded to nearby markets outside of the city limits
(shoutout Sunset Valley)
Finding the right market for you
● hopefully this database allows people to choose a
market where they will feel at home
