Roswell Farmers and Artisans Market Begins April 14

ROSWELL, GA — Organizers tasked with manning the Roswell Farmers and Artisans Market are putting the final touches on its lineup to open the 2018 season. The season begins Saturday, April 14 and will run each Saturday through the end of October.

Market hours are from 8 a.m. to noon at Roswell City Hall at 38 Hill Street. More than 40 local vendors will be on hand, featuring produce grown within 100 miles of the city and other items such as meats, eggs, honey, plants, baked goods, local artisans, fitness instruction, knife sharpening and weekly entertainment.

Most farms that set up shop at the market are certified naturally grown or organic, said Market President Erica Stein.

"The farmers are at the market and incredibly knowledgeable and friendly," she added.

Along with a chance to shop for some tempting goodies and to catch up with old friends, the market will feature live music, children's activities, chef's demonstrations and special events such as pie contests, Tomato Day, Cinco De Mayo and other themes.
