Here's what's new at Baybrook Mall, including a farmer's market, new exhibit.

When was the last time you went to Baybrook Mall?

Last weekend, last Christmas?

If you're not a regular visitor, it might seem like a different mall experience every time.

New stores, more restaurants, more outdoor attractions, another parking lot and more people, which is good for The Heart Gallery of Greater Houston and Bay Area Farmers Market, two ongoing events/exhibits that benefit from the continuing expansion and popularity of the mall. 

The Heart Gallery is a photo exhibit that creates awareness of children in Harris County foster care waiting for adoption, and it will be there through December. 

At the outdoor Bay Area Farmers Market, vendors are there every Sunday bringing gifts: fresh produce, homemade candles, and soaps, baked good and so much more. 

If you haven't been to Baybrook Mall lately, there's a lot more going on than shopping.
