The Shed brings growers, ranchers, food artisans and craftspeople together each weekend. For the Dec. 5 market, use its broad product range as a guide, then check the Friday vendor update if you have a particular stop in mind.
All times are local to the venue · America/Chicago
The Shed is built around a direct exchange between producers and shoppers, with more than 100 local producers represented across a typical weekend. Its roster changes from market day to market day, so a category—bread, produce or handmade goods—is a safer plan than a specific seller. The Saturday market is scheduled for Dec. 5, 2026, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The Shed’s open-air market brings together farmers, ranchers and food artisans who grow, raise or make what they sell. Its listed categories range from seasonal fruits and vegetables, herbs and seedlings to pasture-raised meats, eggs, farmstead cheeses and honey. Preserves, pickles and fermented foods broaden the pantry selection.
The bakery category includes naturally leavened loaves, pastries and seasonal tarts. The Saturday event listing also describes canned goods and regional and international foods; the market’s broader overview lists seasonal cut flowers and handmade work such as pottery, textiles and woodwork. These are examples of the market’s mix, not a guarantee that each product—or any particular seller—will be there on Dec. 5.
The vendors are small businesses and may not attend every market day. The market updates its approved-vendor map by 9 a.m. each Friday, a useful check before setting out to find a particular producer.

The Shed’s overview counts more than 100 local producers across its Saturday and Sunday markets, including farmers from within 400 miles of Dallas. It describes ranchers raising heritage breeds and makers continuing craft traditions, placing farm goods and handmade work within the same regular marketplace.
The market traces its operation to 1941 and runs throughout the year, rain or shine. That steady weekly rhythm is useful context for Dec. 5: this is a regular market day, with seasonal goods and a changing vendor roster, rather than a special edition built around a confirmed lineup.

SNAP/EBT is accepted at The Shed. Through Double Your Dollars, a $10 SNAP purchase earns $10 in market tokens, with the dollar-for-dollar match capped at $10 per visit. The tokens are for produce and food items; shoppers can ask at the information booth to get started.
The market also describes a working demonstration garden that grows seasonal produce and hosts educational events, with tours available on market days. Residents of the Harwood District and surrounding neighborhoods can ask at the information table about the Locals Card, which offers discounts at participating vendors, or sign up online.

A reusable bag may be handy; vendors also have paper bags. The Veggie Valet at The Shed information booth lets shoppers leave their bags while browsing and collect them afterward. ATMs are available at The Shed and The Market, though many small farmers, artisan producers and local businesses are cashless.

The Shed’s dedicated market page gives its address as 1010 S Pearl Expy., Dallas. The Dallas Farmers Market visitor page uses 920 S Harwood St. as the campus address and for its DART directions; those references point to the broader campus, not the same stated Shed address.
Pearl/Arts District Station is served by the Red, Blue, Green and Orange lines; the visitor page describes it as a five-minute walk south to 920 S Harwood. St. Paul Station, on the Red and Blue lines, is a short walk north of the campus. The published walking guidance is to the campus address, not a separate station-to-Shed route.

The market visitor page estimates a 10–15 minute walk from downtown Dallas hotels near Elm or Main streets through the Harwood District. Bike-share stations are nearby, and bike racks are listed at both The Market and The Shed.
Several surface lots adjoin the market. The visitor page says they can fill quickly on peak Saturday mornings and that arriving earlier can help with finding a space closer to The Shed entrance. Free street parking is listed on Harwood, Marilla and Taylor streets on a first-come basis.
The Farmers Market Lot at 920 S Harwood, closest to The Market food hall and Hurtado Barbecue, has variable rates. The Shed Lot at 1000 S Pearl Expy. is listed for weekday parking only, with a stated price of $10 for up to four hours and daily rates that vary; it is not listed as a Saturday parking option.
The Harvest Lofts garage at 1012 S Harwood is open 24 hours. Its listed rate is free for the first two hours, then $3 per additional hour; the page notes rates may vary.
The Dallas Farmers Market campus is described as ADA accessible, with level surfaces throughout the outdoor market, accessible restrooms in The Market Building and accessible parking near the main entrance. The published restroom detail is for The Market Building.
Leashed dogs are welcome in the outdoor market, including The Shed and The Market patios, but are not permitted inside The Market Building food hall. ATMs are available at The Market and The Shed; many small farmers, artisan producers and local businesses are cashless.
Not necessarily. Small businesses may miss individual market days, so check the approved-vendor map after its Friday update, posted by 9 a.m.
