National Farmers Market Week August 4-10, 2013

Have you visited the Suwanee Farmers Market yet? I visited again this past Saturday and picked up all kinds of wonderful locally-grown produce, flowers, organic meats, and homemade sauces and breads. We will be feasting all week long.   

By visiting your local farmers market this week, you'll not only be supporting your local farmers, but you will be able to choose from some of the very best seasonal food products for your family. 

There are now over 8,000 farmers listed in the USDA's National Farmers Market Directory (up from 5,000 in 2008), representing a significant increase in demand for locally grown produce, dairy products and baked goods. Become a part of this sustainable Farm-to-Table movement. 


Suwanee Farmers Market Hours:
SATURDAYS: May 4 - October 5 (except 9/21)
TUESDAYS:   May 7 - August 6
