The Riverside Farmers Market is set to open on Saturday, May 31 from 8 a.m. to noon at Riverside Park. The market will be open every Saturday through October 25 and will concentrate on fresh, locally grown produce. This is the first farmers market in Roswell.

Non profit organizations will be selling coffee and refreshments, local chefs are slated to provide demonstrations and other fun activities are scheduled to make this market a target destination for families.

Vendors must grow their own produce and it should be grown within 100 miles of the market. Prospective vendors can get more information by contacting Louise Estabrook at 404.613.7670.

With support from the City of Roswell, the market will fill a demand that has existed in the community for many years. Other metro communities have established markets which have proven to be highly popular.

Restrooms and free parking is available. Riverside Park is located at 575 Riverside Road in Roswell.
