Join us at the June 15, 2019, Athens Saturday Market

The Athens Saturday Market is from 8 a.m. to Noon at the Green Street Pavilion in Athens, Alabama.

This week, our market committee will be demonstrating how to construct a healthy meal. The demonstration will include instructions on how to make a salad with some of the veggies from the market! Join us to learn how to keep yourself and your family healthy this summer with some local produce!

Thank you to Athens State University for sponsoring the Athens Saturday Market by providing free bottled water each week. Our vendors, committee, and customers are very grateful!

A gathering spot is new to the market this year. With rocking chairs, benches and picnic tables painted by local artists, this makes for the perfect spot to spend your Saturday morning! Relax here and enjoy music from Lance Turner this week! 

Also joining us at the market this year, The Spud Truck. Stop by to The Spud Truck for a Jiffy biscuit and other prepared breakfast foods! Such a yummy way to start your Saturday!
