No Saturday is complete this time of the year without a visit to the Athens Farmer's Market for fresh bread, juices, and vegetables!
Open Saturdays through November 15, 2008 from 8am until 12pm.
David and I have always been huge fans of Big City Bread, but we also discovered Luna Baking on our last visit - not to be missed: Luna Bakings's Chocolate and Cherry Sweet Bread!
You'll find great fresh vegatables from many growers and all produce is grown within 100 miles of Athens, Georgia!
The "Righteous Juice" lemonaide blends are fantastic! Our favorites are the Raspberry and the Blueberry.
Grab a juice and some bread and hang around to listen to some of the music - different bands appear every week - check out the schedule to see who is playing next!
"The Objective of the market is to provide an environment to enhance the production and marketing of local sustainable farm products, local handmade arts and crafts and local artisan value-added products in the Athens Area and to stimulate public interest in the consumption of these products." Come out this weekend and support the cause and go home with some great finds! See you there!
Where: 705 Sunset Drive, Athens, Georgia - inside Bishop Park on the Basketball Courts.
When: Saturdays through Novemeber 15, 2008 from 8am to 12pm.
