Spunky and fresh faced, native Houstonian and Page Parkes model Charlotte Stevens may just be fashion’s next It Girl. After graduating from Stratford High in 2015, Stevens struck poses across Texas — including for CityBook’s inaugural issue in 2016 — before spending stints in Paris and Milan. The now New York-based model’s star rose even higher this year, when she appeared in Gucci’s print campaigns and in Fashion Weeks worldwide. And while agents at Page Parkes are somewhat tight-lipped, word is that in 2019, Stevens has even bigger projects afoot.

What year was your organization launched? Urban Harvest’s Saturday Farmers Market started in 2004 with just seven vendors, providing an outlet for local farms, community and backyard gardeners to sell fresh produce harvested directly from their soils. Now in its 20th year, the market has grown to be one of the largest markets in Texas, supporting over 100 local farmers, ranchers, and food artisans all from within 180 miles of Houston. The market draws 3,000 customers every Saturday morning and includes many original vendors like Animal Farm, Atkinson Farms, and Wood Duck Farm.
