Wiregrass Farmers Market
Sat, April 01, 9:01AM to Sat, July 29, 9:01AMOpen every Saturday morning, 9 AM - 12 PM, April through July and October through Mid-November. The Market offers locally-grown produce (some organic), artisan breads, fresh eggs, jams/jellies, vegan baked goods, honey, nuts, plants, and more. We are a community-based farmers market in the heart of South Georgia, providing locally-grown and handmade products to locals and travelers alike, sold by farmers and artisans themselves. Conveniently located right off I-75, we are hosted by the acclaimed Georgia Museum of Agriculture and Historic Village. Find us at the pole barn behind the Country Store. More than just a great place to shop, the Wiregrass Farmers Market is also a place to learn about food, farming, cooking, and traditional skills. The market is sponsored by the Georgia Museum of Agriculture at ABAC, and is organized and managed by a committee of citizen volunteers. No admission is needed for the market, but you may choose to purchase admission to the museum and village and experience South Georgia's rural heritage and ride the steam train!
