Charities we LOVE and how you can help.....



Every month the Farmer's Market at CLS promotes and supports a local charity.  The volunteers and vendors at our market take giving back to the community very seriously.  Below you will find a list of charities we have raised funds for and have donated directly to those charities. If you would like to donate, we invite you to have some fun and bring your piggy banks to the market for a good cause.


September 10, 2011 - Breseman Party for 4

We are whole-heartedly supporting a local family that has been hit with the economic recession.  The Beresman Family is facing foreclosure and we are aiming to put a stop to that. We are holding a raffle at the Market and there is an open fundraiser being held on the Island on Sunday, September 10.  Come to the island to buy a barbecue plate, participate in the WORLD FAMOUS DUCK RACES or enjoy some of the ice cream being served to help support this family. Party will be located on the bridges in Lazy Bend at 3pm. Contact Allan Batchelor for more info:

The Farmers' Market at Clear Lake Shores is a non-profit outlet for locally-grown fruit, vegetables, and other foods.  The Market is operated by volunteers who care about our community.  Our Vendors are local citizens providing the freshest food from their own establishments. By becoming one of our vendors, we truly aim to partner with those citizens to grow and market your business.

The Clear Lake Shores City government supports this community resource for the benefit of the City's citizens as well as for those of surrounding communities.

We also aim to provide an avenue for local schools, PTA's, bands, churches, and similar non-profits to earn money for their charities and organizations.

Finally, we look to support our local businesses through sponsorship of our volunteer driven Kid's Activity Tent.  Any business wishing to volunteer their time can sponsor the Kid's Activity Tent for free.  Utilizing this sponsorship as a marketing opportunity, rather than a retail one.
