Spread out along the dogwood-lined streets of Atlanta’s Piedmont Park, Green Market is an open-air farmer’s market featuring locally grown produce, artisan cheeses, fresh cut flowers and natural merchandise. Voted one of the top five farmer’s markets in Atlanta by Access Atlanta, Green Market encourages sustainable communities in the most basic way -- by providing shoppers with direct access to local farmers and merchants. It’s as simple as that. You can experience the Green Market for Piedmont Park Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. A chef demo will take place from 11am-noon.
This year boasts the most farmers yet! Also new this year, young market visitors will have the opportunity to participate in educational programs. During market hours on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of every month, the EnviroVentures Saturday Drop-By program provides a take home project and interactive learning fun. You can make the Market a weekend destination for the whole family.
Live music performed by local Atlanta musicians adds to the entertainment and makes this event a real celebration of local talents and products. You can make the Market a weekend destination for the whole family.
