Farmers Markets in Las Vegas!

Las Vegas might be known for its bright lights and endless buffets, but there’s another side to the city—one filled with fresh produce, artisan goods, and local charm. Whether you’re a foodie, a weekend wanderer, or just someone who loves supporting small businesses, the farmers markets around town are worth adding to your weekend plans.


Downtown Summerlin Farmers Market is one of the most popular stops. Every Saturday, the Pavilion fills up with stalls offering colorful produce, homemade breads, and local honey. It’s a great way to kick off your weekend—especially if you follow it with brunch or shopping at the surrounding stores.


Over in Henderson, The District at Green Valley Ranch hosts its own market on Thursdays. It’s a relaxed midweek option with a nice mix of fresh goods and handmade crafts. If you’re nearby, it’s the perfect excuse for a stroll under the trees and maybe a coffee from one of the local cafés.



A newer addition to the scene is The UnCommons Farmers Market, held every Sunday. This modern, walkable community brings together local growers and makers in a trendy setting that feels more like a neighborhood festival than a typical market. Think small-batch jams, fresh flowers, and a few friendly pups in tow.


If you’re looking for variety, Fresh52 Farmers & Artisan Markets pop up all over the valley—from Skye Canyon and Southern Highlands to Floyd Lamb Park. Each location has its own local flavor, but all share the same goal: connecting locals with farm-fresh produce and handcrafted goods.


For a more immersive experience, head to The Las Vegas Farm. Open every weekend, this working farm offers local produce, fresh eggs, and even the chance to meet a few friendly animals. It’s a family favorite and a reminder that Las Vegas is more than desert—it’s also a growing community of local producers.


No matter where you go, here are a few quick tips: arrive early for the best selection, bring a reusable bag (and a little cash), and take a moment to chat with the vendors. Many are small family operations happy to share recipes, storage tips, and what’s coming into season next.


Exploring farmers markets in Las Vegas is a refreshing reminder that community thrives here, even in the middle of the desert. Whether you’re picking up ingredients for dinner or simply soaking in the atmosphere, each market offers a little taste of local life—Vegas style.

Why Las Vegas HOA Fees May Be More Affordable Than You Think

September 15, 2025
What Do HOAs Do and Why They Matter Homeowners associations (HOAs) manage common areas, enforce neighborhood rules, and provide amenities like pools, clubhouses, and security. While they require monthly fees, benefits often include better-maintained neighborhoods, enhanced amenities, and stronger property values. In Las Vegas, HOA coverage is common and rising. According to Realtor.com® - by early 2025, 77.1% of listings had HOA fees , with a median of $118 , making Las Vegas one of the cities with the highest prevalence of HOA-managed homes—but still relatively affordable compared to places like Edwards, CO ($525) or North Port-Sarasota-Bradenton, FL ($310). This places Las Vegas seventh nationally for the prevalence of HOA-controlled listings. While the city has a high rate of HOA-managed properties, the $118 median monthly fee is comparatively low. HOA fees vary based on: Location & Amenities Home Type: Condos typically cost more than single-family homes. Rising Costs: Inflation and underfunded reserves can lead to sudden increases. Bottom Line: Understanding HOA fees in Las Vegas helps homebuyers budget effectively and avoid surprises. Despite the high prevalence of HOA-managed properties, Las Vegas remains more affordable than many other metro areas!  Source: Realtor.com, Homeowners Associations 2024

Las Vegas Ranked #9 for Diverse Food Scenes in the U.S.

September 8, 2025
When people think of food diversity in America, their minds usually go straight to New York City. But according to a recent study highlighted by the esteemed culinary school, Escoffier, the Big Apple doesn’t take the top spot. Instead, San Francisco claimed first place — praised for its bustling variety of cuisines and holding the title for the highest density of restaurants per capita among major U.S. cities. What’s even more exciting for us locals? Las Vegas earned the #9 spot on the list of the most diverse food cities in the country. Why Vegas Stands Out Las Vegas may be known worldwide for its neon lights and entertainment, but the dining scene is what keeps both tourists and residents hungry for more. From celebrity chef–driven restaurants on the Strip to hidden neighborhood gems serving authentic global flavors, Vegas has transformed into a true culinary destination. While seven of the top 10 cities named in the study were coastal (a trend Escoffier notes is tied to cultural diversity and a robust restaurant scene), Las Vegas proves that you don’t have to sit on the coast to experience world-class variety. Our city thrives on international influence — with dining options that range from Korean barbecue and Italian trattorias to Thai street food, upscale steakhouses, and plant-based fine dining. A Foodie Destination on the Rise Being ranked in the top 10 isn’t just a nod to the Strip’s luxury restaurants, but also to the everyday spots that locals love. With new eateries opening regularly, the Vegas dining scene continues to evolve and surprise. So, whether you’re a longtime resident or just visiting, Las Vegas offers something for every craving — proving once again that this city is more than just an entertainment capital. It’s a place where cultures, flavors, and creativity come together to make the dining experience as dynamic as the city itself.
