Old Pearland Farmers Market, which will be located at Independence Park at 3449 Pearland Parkway, Pearland, plans to open on Oct. 16.

Old Pearland Farmers Market will continue to have markets on every third Saturday of the month from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. and will have live music, DJ or other performances on the main stage pavilion as well as food trucks, organizer Julie Waguespack said.

Additionally, those who donate a food pantry item or cash to the market's sponsored business, Christian Helping Hands, will be entered into a raffle drawing for prizes from local businesses and vendors, Waguespack added.
