A lot of people are needing to replace all the perishable food they lost in the recent power outages, and there’s no better place to replace much of it at The Woodlands Farmer’s Market at Grogan’s Mill. This weekly Township event is open Saturdays, rain or shine, from 9 a.m. - noon. Vendors offer local produce, meat, eggs, honey, and more foodstuffs, along with a host of other locally produced items. And proceeds from the market go towards local scholarships to boot!

If you're looking for a concert featuring some of the most significant voices in Americana music, look no more than the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion tonight with the Outlaw Music Festival featuring Willie Nelson, Whiskey Myers, Brittney Spencer, Particle Kid & More. Guaranteed to be a cross-generational music blast (Particle Kid is otherwise known as Micah Nelson, Willie’s son). Starts 4:30 p.m. Be sure to be aware of the pavilion’s bag restrictions!

Before we go, we need to tell you about a neat new pre-concert party project. If you're searching for a cool place to grab a cocktail before heading over to Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion this concert season, look no further than Embassy Suites by Hilton The Woodlands at Hughes Landing, where casually stylish E'terie Bar & Grill in the atrium is serving up special sips for music fans. The specialty cocktails are priced at $11 each and are available for a limited time only. For instance, Matchbox 20 is playing the Pavilion this Friday, and the Sips & Sounds event features the ultimate Matchbox 20 inspired cocktail, “Wild!” Made with a mix of Titos, peach schnapps, peach Juice and Grenadine, this drink will have you feeling like you’re living in a dream. So, whether you’re a “3AM” partier or just need a little “Push,” grab a glass and let Matchbox 20 take you on a musical journey like no other. Available June 26 – July 2. Find out more here.
