What started as curiosity in the kitchen one summer afternoon in the summer of 2016 for founder James Hinton quickly turned into a full time passion project: growing vibrant foods rich in nutrients and full of flavor. Fast forward to today, that passion has only grown and expanded to specialty culinary herbs, edible flowers, leaves and wheatgrass to their wide selection of microgreens and customized edible micro-art pieces under MicroAngelo. Zero-Point Organics partners with and supplies many award winning and top restaurants and hotels, country clubs, caters, private chefs in the greater Houston/Katy and College Station/Bryan areas. ZPO microgreens are also found at Central City Co-op (Houston), The Farm Patch (Bryan) and Village Foods & Pharmacy (Bryan) and may be ordered online for convienant home/business delivery. You can find Zero-Point Organics vending at Heights Mercantile Farmers Martket the 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month in Houston and The Farmers' Market in Brazos County alternating Saturdays as well as various pop-up events throught out the year and festivals, like one of our favorites, Chefs for Farmers. Zero-Point Organics is USDA Organic Certified.

Blake Whitney, owner of Three Sisters, grew up outdoors, shaped by time on the water, ranch life, and a deep respect for the land and sea. With a degree in Range and Wildlife Management from Texas A&M–Kingsville and years of environmental consulting along the Gulf Coast, he was drawn to oyster farming as the perfect blend of stewardship and lifestyle. Nestled in the pristine waters of Keller Bay, Three Sisters Oyster farm, named after Blake's 3 daughters, produces premium oysters while helping restore the coast by improving water quality and supporting a healthy ecosystem. We’re proud of the oysters we grow and the bay that makes them possible.

Growing better than organic for almost a decade. Mostly greenhouse, and recently got some more outside raised beds. I host community workshops for kids and ameatur Gardners. I love taking pride in growing the best produce- quality, varieties, etc. I got a masters in business from Texas A&M and then decided I didn’t want to go into the corporate world. In my quest to find meaning and purpose, I began farming as a means to make money to participate in the world. I still love farming and finding new and more efficient ways of doing things.

Southern Harvest Microgreens was founded in Houston in 2020 with a simple mission: to provide the highest-quality, locally grown microgreens and edible flowers to the community. What began during a challenging time for the restaurant industry has grown into a trusted urban farm supplying restaurants, country clubs, farmers markets, and home cooks with fresh, chef-quality products. Sustainability guides every aspect of the farm. Through efficient indoor growing practices, Southern Harvest uses significantly less water than traditional agriculture, minimizes transportation by growing close to its customers, and produces fresh crops year-round. Community remains at the heart of the business. Southern Harvest proudly partners with local chefs and businesses, participates in farmers markets, and enjoys educating customers about the culinary uses and nutritional benefits of microgreens. Fun Fact: Every crop is hand-seeded and hand-harvested, and many orders are harvested the very same day they're delivered, ensuring peak freshness from farm to table.

Rae Lili Farm started back in 2013 as a simple garden that grew out of our new love for juicing fresh organic produce. We never imagined that a little curiosity about growing vegetables would lead us from big city life to a quieter rural home. What drives our farm is a mix of admiration, fervor, and balance. We focus on growing heirlooms because they have stood the test of time. Even though they may not produce the biggest harvest, every heirloom seed has its own story and history. They are like living artifacts that remind us of where our food comes from. It is pretty amazing to realize that planting even one of these seeds makes you a small part of that ongoing story. Our work is rooted in sustainable and regenerative practices, and we are always looking for ways to take better care of the land that supports us. I attended East Texas A&M University to build a stronger foundation in agriculture and earned both my bachelor's and master's degrees in Agricultural Sciences. Now, as an adjunct instructor teaching two Food Science courses, I get to share that knowledge with others. Farming has allowed us to grow more than just food. It has helped us grow our understanding, our opportunities, and our future.

Founded in 2018, our family farm was born from a deeply personal journey. After our daughter experienced health challenges that weren't being resolved through conventional medicine, we began looking more closely at the food we were eating and how it was raised. That journey ultimately led us to farming, with a mission to improve the health of our own family and the families in our community. As a regenerative farm, we use sustainable practices including rotational grazing, pasture rest and recovery, cover cropping, and environmentally conscious packaging whenever possible. We believe healthy soil produces healthy food, and healthy food helps build healthy communities. Community is at the heart of everything we do. Each Thanksgiving, we host a special dinner for widows, widowers, and orphans, welcoming those who might otherwise spend the holiday alone. Our hope is that every guest leaves not only with a full plate, but feeling seen, heard, loved, and part of our family. Our Mission: To help people grow by fostering a deeper understanding of and appreciation for organically and holistically cultivated food, meaningful relationships, and healthy communities.

Bee2Bee Honey Collective provides beekeeping services and hyperlocal, raw honey throughout Houston while partnering with local beekeepers to bring their products to market. Specializing in small-batch neighborhood honeys, honey infusions, and other products of the hive, Bee2Bee celebrates the unique terroir of each colony by harvesting and bottling every hive separately. Founded in 2016 by Nicole Buergers, Bee2Bee is committed to educating the community through beekeeping mentorship, classes, and presentations on topics including urban pollination, backyard beekeeping, honey varietals, and honey pairing. Sustainability is also central to the company's mission, with all honey bottled in reusable glass jars to reduce plastic waste and preserve flavor. Fun Fact: Because every hive forages differently, no two Bee2Bee neighborhood honeys taste exactly alike—each jar reflects the unique flowers and plants surrounding that hive, creating a true taste of place.

Mushroom Street Farms is a small family-owned mushroom farm and wellness company based in Dallas, Texas. What began with a passion for growing gourmet mushrooms has grown into a mission of making mushroom wellness approachable, practical, and rooted in everyday life. We cultivate fresh gourmet mushrooms and craft our own mushroom extracts and wellness products, with a focus on quality, transparency, and education. Whether someone is discovering Lion’s Mane for focus, Reishi for relaxation, or simply cooking with fresh oyster mushrooms for the first time, we believe people deserve products they can trust and guidance they can understand. Community is at the heart of everything we do. Through our Dallas Farmers Market booth, Deep Ellum storefront, educational workshops, and local events, we’ve had the opportunity to connect face-to-face with thousands of customers, chefs, and food lovers. We love helping people explore both the culinary and wellness sides of mushrooms. Sustainability is an important part of our farming philosophy. We strive to make thoughtful choices throughout our growing and production processes while minimizing waste and continually improving our practices as we grow. Fun fact: Although many people know us for our wellness products, everything started with fresh gourmet mushrooms—and we still get just as excited introducing someone to a perfectly cooked oyster mushroom as we do helping them discover the benefits of medicinal mushrooms.

We started our farm in 2005 in Pittsburg, Texas – a town about 100 miles east of Dallas. Truly a small, family-run operation, we still plant every seed, pick every weed, and tend to every plant with our own hands. We raise from seed all the plants we grow, many of which are specialty heirloom or hybrid varieties. Suffice it to say, we are intimately involved in every part of the business: not only growing the food and tending to the land, but harvesting and washing the vegetables, packing orders, making deliveries, maintaining the website, corresponding with our customers, and more. We began selling our organic produce at a single table at the Dallas Farmers’ Market. Four years later, encouraged by the support and interest from many of our customers, we started a CSA, which has evolved into what we now call our Farm Box program. We also work with and sell directly to a number of chefs and restaurants in the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex area. Community support and a growing interest in the benefits of eating fresh, locally and sustainably grown foods have given us the opportunity to slowly expand the volume and variety of what we grow. We frequently experiment with different varieties of our established crops to determine what will thrive in our soil and withstand the finicky east Texas weather, while expanding the variety of what we plant each season. Our vegetables are grown for their exceptional flavor, not for how long they keep or how far they ship.

Demases Farm has operated in North Texas for over 100 years. We pride ourselves on growing fresh vegetables and creating cherished family experiences. Established in 1919 by James Demases, a Greek immigrant, the farm began in Tarrant County, Texas, before finding its home in the fertile Trinity River Bottom Land in Boyd, Texas, in 1987. Our produce is grown with a perfect blend of time-honored farming traditions passed down for over a century and modern, safe agricultural practices. This commitment to quality ensures freshness, flavor, and quality-grown crops. We proudly cultivate a diverse selection of produce, including kale, collards, mustard greens, turnips, beets, carrots, squash, tomatoes, potatoes, onions, peas, beans, watermelons, cantaloupes, and strawberries.

At Holland Legacy Farms, we're proud to be first-generation regenerative farmers dedicated to raising clean, nutrient-dense food while leaving the land healthier than we found it. Established in 2025, our mission is simple: nourish families with responsibly raised food while restoring the soil through regenerative agriculture. We raise pasture-raised lamb, pork, chicken, and eggs using rotational grazing and species diversity to naturally improve pasture health. Our animals are moved to fresh pasture regularly, allowing the land time to recover while reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides. We believe healthy soil produces healthy plants, healthy animals, and ultimately healthier food. As a local family farm, we're committed to building relationships with the communities we serve. We participate in local farmers markets, offer on-farm pickup and local delivery, and enjoy educating customers about where their food comes from and why regenerative farming matters. We believe transparency is just as important as quality. One of our favorite sayings is, "We're not trying to farm the way it's always been done—we're farming for the next generation." Every decision we make is focused on improving animal welfare, increasing biodiversity, and creating a sustainable farm that can be enjoyed for years to come. Whether you're purchasing your first pasture-raised chicken or stocking your freezer with lamb or pork, you're supporting a local farm that's committed to raising food with integrity, caring for the land, and strengthening our local food system. We appreciate every family that chooses to support local agriculture and become part of the Holland Legacy Farms story. Together, we're growing healthier food, healthier soil, and a stronger community.

The Giving Garden at Jacob's Reward Farm is a faith-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in Parker, Texas, dedicated to improving food security and community wellness through sustainable agriculture, nutrition education, and fresh food access.

Our mission is to cultivate healthy communities by increasing access to nutritious food while educating individuals about healthy eating, gardening, and sustainable food systems. We grow our vegetables without synthetic chemicals, and we raise our meat chickens on pasture in fresh air, with access to all the environmental inputs they need to lead happy, healthy, chicken lives. Birds destined for donation are processed at a family-owned USDA-inspected facility near us, and we process those birds sold to the public on the farm ourselves with humane techniques and with deep respect. Our weekly volunteers come from every walk of life and represent many ethnicities. We work together with a nurtured culture of welcome and respect.
