Atlanta-area neighborhood farmers markets are thriving as people meet and support local farmers as well as vendors who have turned hobbies into successful businesses. Buying local means shoppers are investing in their communities and the businesses they care about.
Market seasons vary in length and many markets are open year-round. Some markets are indicated as “producer-only.” That means there are no resellers at the market, only vendors who grow, harvest or make the produce and products they sell.
Through a partnership with Wholesome Wave Georgia, many markets match EBT dollars with an equal amount of tokens for fresh produce and, when available, food-producing plants.
