Grant Park Farmer's Market Rescheduled for May 20

Lighting on Sunday forced weekend cancellation.

GRANT PARK — We cancelled the Grant Park Farmers Market for the first time ever yesterday because of lightning in the area.

To help our vendors who have perishable products, we’ll be hosting a smaller pop-up market today from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the market site.

Watsonia Farms will have the first peaches of the spring from Monetta, S.C. These organic peaches are in limited supply, so be sure to get there early!  Also, stop by Le Tre Lune Farm for the first blueberries of the season. We'll have many of your favorite farmers and vendors, including dinner options.  So, bring your friends and family to this one-time event. RSVP and help spread the word on facebook here.

The Pop Up Market will be held in the regular market location in Grant Park at the historic Milledge Fountain at 600 Cherokee Ave.
