Don’t Buy Food From Strangers

Shop local, win prizes.

Wave goodbye to foods from strangers, and say hello to a community of growers, makers, and fellow food enthusiasts. At Galveston’s Own Farmers Market, you have the special opportunity to get to know where your food comes from & who makes/grows them — while also the chance to win super sweet prizes for shopping.

Sounds like a win-win, right? We sure think so!

Get ready to reap the rewards with every purchase!

  • Step 1

    Visit our info booth to sign up for your very own ‘Besties’ card!

  • Step 2

    Shop for local foods with GOFM's vendors. Earn one punch per day for making a purchase from the market. 

  • Step 3

    Stop by the GOFM Info booth at the front of market, show off your goods & get punched!

    Get extra punches when you buy from the spotlighted vendors that week!

  • Step 4

    Bring your completed punch card to the info booth to spin the wheel of prizes AND be entered in a big giveaway held at our annual birthday market (in October).

What are some of the prizes?

Once you complete your Besties Punch Card, you have the chance to win on of the many cute + fun prizes on the prize wheel, including:

  • DBFFS Bandana made by local artist BecJoy Prints,

  • DBFFS Shirt,

  • DBFFS Tumbler,

  • Produce Bags,

  • Chicken Lego Set,

  • and much more!

What’s the Grand Prize? When do you pick a winner?

All individuals who completed a Besties Card will be entered in the raffle to win a grand prize! We’ll log your card when you turn it in, and let Lady Luck take hold.

We’ll draw winners at our annual Spooktacular Birthday. Completed cards must be done by 10 AM October 19, 2025. In 2024, we raffled off 2 brand new bikes. What will 2025’s prize be? Stay tuned!

  • Earning Punches: There are no dollar thresholds or item counts to worry about. Simply make any purchase at the market and show it to our folks at the Info Booth to receive a punch on your card.

    Bonus Punches: Keep an eye out for our highlighted vendors each month. If you purchase from them, you'll earn an additional punch on your card. However, if your purchase is solely from the highlighted vendor, you'll still only receive one punch.

    Winning Prizes: Patron must turn in one FULL completed punched card in order to redeem prizes. Punches on separate cards cannot be combined.

    Collecting Information: Your information will not be sold or given to any other 3rd party.
