About RFG

We like knowing our food is grown down the road.

RFG is a community of local farmers, green-thumbed neighbors, and technologists. We share one joy: knowing our community has healthy local options, grown by people we know.

Shoppers buying fresh produce at a Real Food Group farmers market stand

Local food grows best when neighbors look out for each other.

Some of us work the land. Some of us have a garden that got out of hand. Some of us write software for a living and just wanted to help. What we have in common is simple: a busy Saturday market makes us happy, and an empty one does not.

So we spend our weekends asking growers what they are bringing, sharing what we find, and making it easy for anyone to know which stands are open today. No stale schedules, no driving to a dark lot. Just neighbors helping neighbors find good food close to home.

What we care about

Grown by people you can meet

Farmers, ranchers, and backyard growers are the heart of RFG. Their stands, their hours, their word.

Neighbors over algorithms

Real people share what is fresh and open each week. A friendly tip beats a scraped web page every time.

Healthy food close to home

The whole point is joy: a town where good local food is the easy choice, not a weekend expedition.

Why an app?

A website can show you a map. An app is there when the plan changes.

Status that finds you

Push alerts when a favorite closes early, reopens, or sells out. You hear it before you leave the house.

Works where you decide

Your list and confirmed status load at the market, even on a weak signal in a crowded lot.

One tap to get there

Directions to any open market, launched straight from the map.

Community

Stay close to the growers and neighbors who make your market worth the trip, and share what you find.

Rooted in Austin, growing with our neighbors.

We started in Austin and still learn from the growers and shoppers here every week. As more farmers and green thumbs join, we will bring the same care to new towns, one market at a time.
