What is the San Antonio Fall Herb Market?

30 years of Tee Shirts from previous Herb Markets...

A Texas Gerb Garden ???

Aah...lovely lavender

Fall is a wonderful time to plant or add to your garden and this year on the third Saturday of October 19, 2024  the San Antonio Herb Market Association hosts a day dedicated to all things herbal at Rainbow Gardens, Bandera Road, San Antonio.


​We celebrate the Herb of The Year as designated by the International Herb Association by bringing you seminars, cooking demonstrations, and events for the children.  We invite local herb sellers and herb related specialty vendors to display and sell their products.  You can purchase herb plants for your fall garden and do some pre-Christmas shopping by picking up hand crafted gifts for yourself or your family and friends. You have a chance to learn about herbs that grow well in this region; learn about the Herb of The Year; and visit with our gardening experts who can answer your general gardening questions as well as those herbal.  Our popular cooking demonstrations feature recipes highlighting the Herb of The Year as well as other herbal fare.  And after the demonstrations, you have a chance to taste the new creations - how good is that??

​Our event is family friendly and free to the public. 

​So join us on the Third Saturday of October beginning at 9:00 am being held at Rainbow Nursery Bandera Road location

It's always different....it's always fun, it's always creative and informative.

​See you there!
