At the core of the Arlington Foodies Farmer’s Market is a shared love for food. Initiated by the Arlington Foodies group on Facebook, this community brings together diverse individuals - loyal customers, restaurant owners, grocers, and food distributors - all with a common passion for cuisine. As the group flourished, it embarked on endeavors like bi-weekly produce co-op pickups, a discount ID program, and a vibrant monthly farmer’s market every 4th Saturday from 5:00pm to 8:00pm. Public movie nights add to the sense of camaraderie. These projects, driven by the aim to foster positivity, kindness, and respect, illuminate the best facets of Arlington.

Gold Pops started its frozen desserts journey in 2018 with the intention of using unique and fresh ingredients. Unlike the others, this artisan does not use pre-frozen fruits that come in packages. Instead, they hand-pick their fruit selections in order to bring the best all-natural flavors. Indeed, “fresh, simple, quality ingredients make for an excellent frozen treat.” A year later, they have introduced a new concept that is first to Texas: fried ice cream on a stick. The experience of both fire and ice in your mouth will just make you “blown away.” Besides their “many delicious flavors,” the owners “listen to what the customer suggests. They tweak the menu every two weeks based upon popular requests, and offers an assortment of mixed flavors.” Think of “apple pie” and “KitKat” flavor. So, “if you love gourmet popsicles, this is the place for you.”
