Local Blog Roundup: New home for farmers' market

033107_market.jpgThe Houston Farmers' Market might be moving into new digs, according to Stories from a Houston Life. Rumor has it that the popular Rice Village-area market could be making the jump to the stadium parking lot at Rice University as early as April 3. We loved how prominently Houston's farmers' markets are featured in Hot Town, Cool City and we're excited to see them expanding. The Rice Village Houston Farmers' Market is currently housed in the parking lot of Christ the King Lutheran Church. As far as we've heard, there are no plans to move the Onion Creek location - yet.

>> Someone must have looked at Houstonist's gift guide. Houstorian had an interesting post about the history of Shepherd Drive this week.

>>Congratulations to the Houston Press. The Brazosport News noted the auspicious honor bestowed on Houston's free weekly: a certificate from the Investigative Reporters and Editors.

>> If you build it, they still might not come. Christof of Intermodality blogged about how to get riders on light rail.

>> Cheap is one of our favorite words. The Photine Blog told us about an easy way to win tickets to the extremely popularWicked at the Hobby Center for only $25.

Re: Wicked Tickets

Not free, but for $25 each. Still an incredible bargain for some very hard to come by tickets.

Of course. I don't know what I was thinking, but thanks for the correction.
