Mount Pleasant’s weekly farmers market
Every Tuesday evening from June through September, West First Street in Mount Pleasant fills with local vendors, fresh produce, and the kind of midweek community gathering that tells you a town still knows how to come together.
Mount Pleasant’s weekly Tuesday evening farmers market is one of the quieter recurring events in Titus County, and one of the most revealing. Held at 100 West First Street every Tuesday from 3:30 to 7:00 p.m. through the summer, the market brings local produce vendors, baked goods, prepared foods, and the kind of foot traffic that turns a weekday evening into something worth leaving the house for.
This is a different event from the 2nd Saturday Farmer’s Market that fills the downtown square once a month. The Tuesday evening market is weekly, lower-key, and built for the people who already live here—the kind of market where you stop on the way home, pick up tomatoes, and end up talking to your neighbor for twenty minutes. It’s not a festival. It’s a market, and that’s exactly why it works.
How the season works
The market runs from early June through the end of September, with vendor and food truck fees waived by the city to keep participation low and accessibility high. Vendors set up along West First Street in the downtown area, and the event runs through the late afternoon into the early evening—long enough to catch it after work, early enough that the kids aren’t past bedtime.
The mix changes with the season. Early markets lean toward spring produce—herbs, greens, strawberries. Mid-summer brings tomatoes, peppers, squash, and the kind of abundance that makes you rethink your dinner plans at the market table. By September, the market shifts toward fall crops and preserved goods, the last warm-evening markets before the season closes.

Getting there from the property
100 West First Street sits in the heart of downtown Mount Pleasant, about ten minutes from the property on County Road 1070. The market fills the blocks along West First Street, with parking available on adjacent streets and in the surrounding downtown area. For anyone on the property, the drive is short enough to make the market a spontaneous Tuesday evening stop—grab produce, talk to vendors, pick up something for dinner, and head back.
The Tuesday evening market is one of those events that tells you something about a community without needing to explain it. It runs weekly, it’s free to attend, it’s organized by the Mount Pleasant–Titus County Chamber of Commerce, and it draws the people who actually live here. For anyone evaluating the property as a primary home or a weekend retreat, that kind of consistent, low-key community gathering is the thing that makes a Tuesday evening in Mount Pleasant feel like more than a drive to the grocery store.
